With his dog by his side… Is a second chance within reach? 

After losing his family and his leg in a car crash, widower Dirk Matthews dedicates his solitary life to woodworking and his mobility service dog, Molly. That is, until a troubled kid steals from his truck. Desperate to reach her grieving oldest son, widow Tessa Wagner agrees to have the boy help Dirk work on her family’s ranch. Only she doesn’t expect her own connection with the carpenter. Soon they’re feeling more than the shared loss of loved ones. But will past heartbreak stand in the way of their future? 


Lucie's Review: 

Two hurting hearts find unexpected understanding and healing, and perhaps even love...

Dirk Matthews has been living a quieter life after tragedy took his family and his leg, but he still stays busy remodeling older locations into something new and innovative with his mobility do by his side. When a boy steals from him, he works out a deal with the boy's mother to have him work with him to make it up. 

A touching story, with great relationship building, themes of family ties and legacy. Dirk is great with Tessa's boys, and they love his dog, Molly. Dirk and Tessa makes a great team, they both have lived through great loss, and I liked how they both had great support systems in their families. 

Overall, a heartwarming read, with compelling characters. A great introduction to a full cast of wonderful characters that I hope each have their own story in the works. A touching story of new beginnings, faith, family and love. Highly enjoyable and satisfying read.

I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
