About this listen
For over 20 years, she secretly loved her brother's best friend, but now, the secret is out.
Hadley Hayes has been in love with her brother's best friend for as long as she can remember. Now, at 31, she's determined to make Sam see her as more than just the little girl who used to follow him around the family farm. Aware of his fear of commitment, she's ready to show him that "happily ever after" isn't just meant for the fairy tales.
Sam Bennett, Red Maple Falls fire chief and notorious bachelor, swore he'd never make a pass at any of his best friend's sisters, but when Hadley confesses her feelings, he can no longer deny their chemistry. Trying to hold on to a promise he made when he was only 15 becomes increasingly hard as their relationship intensifies.
When a tragic turn of events sends Sam spiraling, it reminds him that he's not the hero who everyone sees - he's the kid from the wrong side of the tracks who never really belonged.
Determined to prove Sam's worth, Hadley refuses to give up on him, but will her love be enough to pull him from the ashes, or will their happily ever after go down in flames?

Story
As a divorced single father, I live by three rules: Make sure every day my daughter, Paisley, knows she’s number one in my life. No matter what, keep contact with my cheating ex-wife to a minimum, and turn Maxwell Wineries into a legacy that keeps Paisley set for life. When I hire Lexi to look after my daughter, I realize I need another rule: Don’t pursue Paisley’s nanny. But even if I had that rule it wouldn’t matter. Because I'm breaking it already.

I’ve always been the person that does whatever someone tells me I can’t. Can’t graduate with a four-point-oh? Check. Can’t win a modeling contract without trying? Did it. Check. Can’t make it in the pro football league? Triple check with an MVP Award on top. When my best friend told me to stay away from his little sister, Layla, it didn’t sound like a challenge. Then again, I’d never seen her before. He obviously wasn’t thinking about who he was talking to if he believed I could ignore her.

It was supposed to be the best day of my life. But the second I got up, things started to fall apart. The kitchen just caught on fire. Flowers were from a funeral. My bride-to-be just had an allergic reaction, leaving by ambulance. Oh, and my ex-girlfriend just walked into the church. They say you have to see the signs when they are right in front of you. Maybe she was just mine to have.

I'm Levi Buchanan, and until five years ago, I thought the legend of my family's curse was a load of crazy, Southern nonsense. No curse can make you fall in love at first sight. No curse can force a true, deep, passionate, all-consuming love that will haunt you all the days of your life.

Overall, I liked the characters. I felt bad for Sam because he had such a bad perception of his worth. Hadley was sweet and I liked glimpses at prior characters. A bit too much push and pull with the couple but I enjoyed the book overall.
The audiobook was good with the same narrator as other books. As usual, given there are dual povs, i wish there was both a male and female narrator.

Hadley and Sam have appeared in earlier iterations of the Maple Falls series. They are likeable people, both old enough to have developed their own distinct personalities. Hadley is a farmer and animal lover and nothing will ever change her. She is typically dirty and often has specks of hay in her hair. Sam spends his time trying to be a good person: he helps anyone in the community who needs, gutters cleaned, snow shoveled, plumbing done. He is stubborn but resilient. There are many characters that live in Maple Falls, not the least of which is Hadley's grandmother, Betty, a born matchmaker, who curiously have never plied her skills on Sam and Hadley.
Krista Nicely was a good reader who has read other Maple Falls books. She does a nice job of making it clear who is speaking without resorting to odd voices. This is the ideal book to listen to, light and fun, serious, but positive, with a nice happily-ever-after ending. I recommend it in whichever form: audio or print.
I received a free copy of the audio book from the author. All opinions and interpretations contained herein are solely my own.
Can Sam and Hadley ever get together?

I definitely recommend reading this series in order. I loved seeing the characters from book to book and getting little updates on their lives.
Like the rest of this series, this book is narrated in a more story telling style rather than a performance where the narrator "becomes" the characters, but I still enjoyed listening. If you are looking for a small town series with lots of connecting characters, this might be the one for you.

no-one gets hurt. Hadley has always loved Sam , they were childhood friends, they did everything together until the day she told him she loved him. Sam had demons that he was battling inside. How could anyone love him? He would never be good enough for anyone. He became withdrawn, and ignores her. She isn't going to give up on him easily. Can she convince him, she's the one woman that he needs? i enjoyed this second chance romance.
Krista Nicely portrayed the characters with love and emotion. I enjoyed listening to this story.

Sam and Hadley have been circling around each other for years. She's always had a crush on him but he's always viewed her as off-limits. What will happen when Hadley finally confesses her love for him?
The first chapter of this book seriously grabbed me right away. I absolutely needed to know how that scene ended immediately. Of course, I had to wait until practically the end of the book to find out! I enjoyed reading about both Hadley and Sam. I loved both of them. Hadley rescues dogs and Sam is the fire chief. They are a match made in heaven. I will say that I got a little frustrated with both of them with their back and forth. I just wanted them to be together. Overall, this book was really enjoyable though!
Krista Nicely did a great job on the narration. Again, I found that some of the narration had some awkward pauses, but overall enjoyable!

Oh Sam!!
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I really enjoy the feel of this series; Red Maple Falls is a nice place to read about. Hadley and Sam have a really great connection; some majorly hot passion! Hadley was awesome, but I wasn’t a fan of her always having to be the one to put herself out there for Ben. I wasn’t a fan of Ben sleeping with most of the ladies in town and now working his way through the ones on the edge of town, but I was hoping he’d redeem himself. Unfortunately, I felt he was a baby most of the time and didn’t treat Hadley well. He doesn’t think he’s good enough for her, so he acts like a jerk at times. She’s been in love with him for years; since she was like 7 or something, and has watched him sleep around. It’s so sad! I really felt for Hadley, but girl should’ve spoken up way sooner. She deserved way better. I’m going to look past my dislike of Sam, and go with a 4 rating. The story is entertaining and the Hayes family dynamic is lots of fun! Next up is Daisy’s book, which I’m already not a fan of her so I hope she isn’t as selfish as she seems in the rest of the series. Still looking forward to reading it though! This is a fun series.
