Gray Graber lives with his wife and son but his wife has been shutting out. Gray doesn't understand when or why the sudden change in his wife's attitude toward him occurred but they've been pulling apart ever since. Something has to be done about it. Gray and Elsie, his wife, start to work toward a better relationship, tragedy strikes. Lena Kauffman is the local school teacher. All her life she's been ashamed of her birthmark on her cheek and has had to take all the looks for it. She believes that no one will ever want to marry her and the only thing she can do is teach, which is something that she loves dearly. One of her students starts to play tricks on her in an attempt to get her fired or... worse. Gray and Lena have been friends since childhood and they have to find ways to work through their misfortunes, maybe even together.
I have to say that I liked this book but not as much as the first. I really liked the characters and the relationship in the first book and I wasn't expecting this book to bring in a whole new batch of characters. For those of you who have read the first book, Cara and Ephraim aren't totally gone but the spotlight is less on them and more on the new characters.
I recommend reading the first book in the series because it was fantastic and if you've read that then you should read this one but I don't think you should skip the first book because it has all the best characters.
I rate this book a 8.5/10 because it wasn't as good as the first book but the writing was still great and I liked the ending.
