So when her grandma calls her back to the family lily farm she's loved and grown up at, she goes for a 'vacation'. she thought getting promotions would make her happy, but it's just made her busier, more frustrated, and more burned out. She's burned out on her job, at the same time. Mariel has been burned - first by her father, then by a boyfriend in Dallas. I loved this about the story, by the way. there is NO doubt that Heath loves Mariel. Seriously refreshing, in light of all the books that are misunderstandings or 'how can I know how he feels'. And there are NO pretenses, no undercurrents, no subtext - Heath is open about every single feeling he has for her, from moment one. This was an amazing romance story - it's about love at first sight. And it being spring, I thought I'd see if I could stand it. this was in the bags of books I've picked up. And yes, I'm thinking I'm going to deface the book and try to remove the word 'Easter' from the front with nail polish remover or alcohol or something. We have *NOTHING* to do with it - we keep the Leviticus 23 feasts. It's a bastardization of Pesach, a mixing of darkness with light that the Bible says God abhors. Because we don't celebrate Ishtar/Easter. My kids' jaws *dropped* when they saw this in my hands.
