I can't imagine trying to tell my mama that because my father passes she has to remain a lonely widow because that's what I'm comfortable with, I can totally hear that conversation now and it wouldn't go well for me. Just because you don't know her to live like this doesn't mean she didn't get down when she was younger. Like girl back up and let your mother live, she's told you she is doing ok and yes it might be out of the ordinary for her but she's a grown woman trying to have some fun. She has gotten messages stating her mother is okay but this woman who is leaving the messages can't possibly be the woman who has raised her whole life.Īs I was reading I kept asking myself what kind of person is so deeply involved in their parent's lives.

Madison is here to find her upstanding staid mother who went on vacation with friends and never returned. As he goes down the path of love he tries to justify why he's acting like he is and keeps telling himself he's just being a good guy as if it's not love. My favorite character is Stone because he's so set on not falling in love because he didn't want to lose himself in any relationship as his friends have. From there our story unfolds and boy what a story we get. They meet on the flight because Madison is afraid of flying and Stone helps to calm her down. Madison is a teacher on summer break, and she's on a mission, her mother has run off recently and she needs to make sure she's okay. Stone is a famous author of the Westmoreland Clan, he's on his way to unwind on his Uncles secluded mountain, post book publication. Although it relied heavily on Corey's story it was still a good story to read about them. It's another of the Westmoreland Clan stories and I'm glad to be back in this world.
