Summary: :|
Comment: Vernon Trent has loved Carolyn Townsend all his life. As a young boy he was to shy to approach Carolyn and as a young man he was drafted to Vietnam. By the time Vernon came home to Crystal Creek he found Carolyn married with a daughter. Vernon knew he could never love anyone like Carolyn so he never married. Now twenty years later, Carolyn is a widow and her daughter is grown. Vernon decides to make his feelings toward Carolyn known. Carolyn has always thought of Vernon as a dear friend. Now that he wants more she is frightened of the feelings that she has for him.

I have always liked Carolyn from her brief appearances in other Crystal Creek books. However, I found her behavior in this book shocking. Vernon is about twenty pounds over weight and Carolyn feels that he is too much at risk for a heart attack to take the chance of having a relationship with him. She mentally berates him throughout the story for being overweight and than she verbally berates him toward the end of the book. First of all, J.T. is a physically fit man and he has a heart attack. Carolyn's first husband was also fit and he had a heart attack. Second, readers would be appalled if we were talking about a woman who happened to be twenty pounds overweight being berated by a man. Personally I felt that if Carolyn really loved Vern she would have accepted him as he was. Instead, Vern takes Carolyn's words deep into his heart and sets out to please her and do whatever it takes to get her to love him-AAgghh. Many characters from previous books are in this story and there is a good introduction of characters that will be in future stories. The weight issue personally irritated me if you can look past this than you will probably enjoy this book.
