Can the ending of one dream lead to the beginning of a new one?
Will Gartner made a lot of mistakes in the past, but he finally has his life together. Leaving his reckless teenage years behind, he’s recently graduated from college and is all set to move from Las Vegas to New York to start a prestigious new job. But when an unexpected guest shows up at his farewell party, all Will’s dreams are smashed to pieces. Suddenly, he’s taking a crash course in how to be a father to the five-year-old daughter he never knew existed.
Will changes direction and heads to Harmony Creek, Ohio, and the only person who’s ever really been there for him, his brother Chase. Chase saved Will in the past, but will he rescue him yet again? Some lessons—like fatherhood—can only be learned by doing. Is Will up to the challenge?
And where does Emma Metzger fit into Will’s suddenly upside-down world? Emma knows all about his troubled past and sees his hesitation to commit to his new daughter. How can she commit her heart to a man who doesn’t know what the word means?
Chase always told Will “Follow your heart. Always try to be a good man.” But will following his heart be enough for his daughter, and for Emma?

Review
Rating: ☆☆☆☆
Will has his whole life laid out in front of him: newly graduated, a swish job lined up and a place to live. But life has a habit of throwing a curve ball when it is least expected. For Will it is discovering that he has a five year daughter Lily and that he now has sole custody of her. Suddenly his life is turned upside down and he seeks help from his brother in Harmony Creek. It is here that Will evolves as a parent and as a person, with a little push from daycare provider Emma.
Dreams and priorities change as our lives evolve. Being able to experience Will's evolution, with a few stumbles along the way and plenty of doubts, is a humbling experience. It will make you think about your own life and priorities. These were all round great characters and you will fall in love with the adorable Lily. A really good read.
