About this listen

A small-town doctor, a woman determined to find answers, and the power of family. Will the truth finally bring peace to these troubled hearts?

Dr. Jake Duncan is a busy man — what with being the local doctor, a member of the rescue squad, a volunteer with the GiddyUp Kids program, and most importantly, raising his young hearing-impaired son, there’s not much time for anything else. Especially not an event planner who comes to town looking to stir up trouble for one of the few men he considers a close friend, retired pro bull rider, Chad Andrews.

Hard-charging Gemma Watson is shocked to discover the identity of her biological father on accident. She’s determined to pay Chad Andrews a visit but it’s not a social call, more of a piece-of-her-mind call. But when Brody, her excitable golden retriever, gets into a bit of trouble and it's 911 to the rescue, her plans change.

To get closer to Chad, and smooth ruffled feathers of the handsome Dr. Jake, Gemma offers to organize a fundraiser event for the rescue squad, and he can’t say no. In fact, when it comes to Gemma, Jake is finding it impossible to stop her from getting her way. And he might just love her all the more for it....

Family

Gemma has always wanted a father, but now that she has found him she isn't sure she wants to know him. Gemma cannot seem to forgive him for the past. Then she begins to learn the truth of that past and must decide whether or not to forgive both of her parents for the things she learns about them. Through all of the adjustments she must make she meets Jake and this adds more change to her life.

The narration is acceptable. Lydia Butler did great with the voice of the child.

Sweet story about forgiveness and love

This is an enjoyable book about forgiveness and taking chances. Gemma is really angry at the father she never knew. She decides to visit him and unload all her anger.

Jake is doctor and good friend to Gemma’s father. As the story progresses all of the characters grow close and grow in different ways.

It is a clean read, with a well developed plot line.

The past isn't always as It seems

I like the parts of the story better than others. Most of the characters were very well developed while I felt Gemma was a little shallow... but probably within reason of her circumstance.

I loved the relationship between Jake, Kyle and Tom... truly Kyle is a lucky child even without a mom, though he longs for one. Parts of this story pulls at the heartstrings.

Gemma learns the past isn't always as It seems and also how to forgive others. Sometimes those who love us most can unintentionally hurt us the most.

The narration was well done.

Hallmark like Romance

If you enjoy Hallmark romances, with kids and dogs, you should try this story. It's sweet, as some misunderstandings, and a happy ending.

Finding Love

Great story and love the narrator, Rachel Butler. Gemma never knew who her father was growing up. By chance she finds out who he is and tries to get to know him. She meets his friend, Dr Jake, but they get off on the wrong foot. Delightful story and wonderful characters.

New Beginnings

This is a sweet story of new beginnings for so many of the characters. Not just because of meeting new people or changing jobs, but also of changing one’s perceptions, forgiveness, understanding, opportunities and new concepts for old wounds. All the main characters in this story undergo some sort of change of heart. A new beginning.

An enjoyable read

This fast paced tale will get you in from the very beginning. A golden retriever gets himself in a pickle and sets in motion a dangerous rescue operation.
Elsie Davis is a wonderful story writer and worth your time to enjoy.
