This book is like a sweet piece of chocolate - which is appropriate given that the story occurs on Valentine's Day. Giselle is a widow with young son. Hugh was her husband's friend and has felt guilty over his friends's death. Hugh is the one who suggested going out on the ice and when both fell in only Hugh came out alive. Now years later can Hugh and Giselle overlook the past and find love?
Add in Ewan, Giselle's son, who seems to be helping to bring the pair together. This book is a sweet, fun and quick read and you can't help but love it.

In Short: This is a fun quick read. If you like historical romances I would highly recommend it. This book is a great way to sample the author’s style.
Pros: I loved this story! The settings were descriptive and beautiful. The story was sad and then sweet and ended happily. I just wish it had been longer! In a short amount of time I really got into the characters. I liked how they all had unique voices. A lot of feels packed into very few pages. The Valentine’s Day folklore tid-bits were a fun addition to the story and made it a great February read for me!
Cons: My only issue with it is that it’s too short. It’s like a tease. I was all into it and boom “the end.” This took me by surprise even more because the progress on my kindle was only fifty-something percent, there are bonus samples at the end. The actual page count for the story is probably 40ish.
Parent’s Guide: Overall clean; there is some sexual innuendo and kissing. No sex.
