But when she learns his true purpose in town is to build a motocross school on land near her home, she has to put on the brakes. Her children’s welfare is her priority, and her former in-laws have made it clear they don’t approve of Jared or his plans. Soon Becca may have to choose between her heart…and her home.

When the baby he rescued seven years ago returns—with his widowed adoptive mom—Deputy Fire Chief Matt Bailey can’t turn them away. Desperate to escape the reminders of his failure in the line of duty, Matt is close to leaving town. But one look at Rachel Carter and her son, Christopher, has him second-guessing his plans. Rachel is a mom in need of a hero for her son. But as much as she wants the two to bond, she’s determined to keep her distance from Matt. After losing her husband on the job, she promised never to love another fireman. Yet somehow she finds herself drawn to the one man she should avoid.

As he sets out to be a true father to Lilly, he soon realizes his feelings for Oregon are growing stronger.

But raising a family with Jake could be everything she’s ever wanted.

Until the moment David Camden and his adorable son appear in her exam room. Spring assumes David is another down-on-his-luck single parent at the free clinic—but looks can be deceiving. Because David has a job—he’s the architect proposing a new development in the middle of Spring’s land! When the truth is revealed, can Spring find a way to keep both her home and the blessing of new love?

My Thoughts
I love to read but these days its hard to find a romance to read that isn't pure filth. Enter the Love Inspired stories from the favorite romance company Harlequin. These are books that are full of love, faith and hope. I like something that isn't too serious and can help me relax. I don't often read romance but I used to all the time until it got to the point that they were all smutty. I might just get back in the habit now that I have discovered the Love Inspired books. I read Winning the Teacher's Heart by Jean C. Gordon I loved the characters. They're easy to identify with on many levels. Once I started reading it I couldn't stop. Only problem was that I finished way too soon. I'm definitely going to have to read the rest of The Donnelly Brothers series. I don't want to spoil anything by giving too much away but, my only real problem is that Becca is too wishy washy when it comes to her ex in-laws. Although on that same note it did help the story along in a few spots. All I can say is that I would definitely recommend reading this book to anyone. Not just the Christian faith. It is religious and I do like that about it. However, I've been on both sides of the fence and I can honestly say that it's not pushy in the book. This book isn't out to save your soul but, it might helps you to find your way.
