The story of Erik Lindstrom and Katrin Svenson.
Erik never believed in love, he grew up believing that his dad left his mom on her death bed. He hated and didn’t have respect for his dad…because to him, what kind of man would leave the love of his life on her last days on earth? Who does that. When he was little he believe that his parents love was real and he wanted to grow up and find love like they had, but when he saw how much his mom suffered in her last days on earth and his dad was nowhere to be found, he lost his faith in love. Erik grew up not looking for love, but for a quick lay here and there. Anytime anyone got too close to him, he would end the relationship. He didn’t do love, it’s not for him. Why give your heart to someone, if love won’t last?
Then there’s Katrin, who had been having a hard life. Her ex-fiancé left her at the altar on their wedding day, then after she broke it off with him, he kept coming for her and wouldn't leave her alone. Her ex-fiancé became a drunk and became more and more violent.
One day when Erik was asked by Ingrid and sister Jenny for a favor to bring Katrin to a new town for her safety. Safety away from her ex-fiance, who had become a violent drunk. The first day they met, they both felt sparks fly. Knowing how much Erik didn’t believe in love and it’s not at all into a relationship, they decided to stay clear of each other. Erik for some reason couldn’t stay away from Katrin and decided to ask Katrin for dinner in a week. This became a routine with them, until they couldn’t stay away from each other any longer. While their relationship started turning for the better a family get together was coming near and Erik started to get nervous and scared of his relationship with Kat. Not knowing exactly what they are, he became lost and confused of his feelings. Which put a damper on their newly found love. At the same time Katrin’s ex-fiance started coming around and promised Karen that he will do anything to get her back.
Will Erik find his way and accept that he is in love with Katrin?
Will Katrin’s ex find her and do what he had promised?
I love this book. Katrin and Erik are too sweet, they started out friends and became lovers. Erik being new in the whole relationship thing, wasn’t so bad. He never believed he was a romantic, but romance came to him naturally. When Katrin and Erik went through the bump on the road and split, I felt their pain. It was so sad, but just like all of Katy’s books we always get our HEA that we are hoping for. Read the book and learn the road of Katrin and Erik’s relationship with their ups and downs, it will all be worth it in the end. This is a feel good love story and that’s just the way I like it. <3
