One Kind Kiss

Noah Williams has been in love since the third grade, but he's settled for Best Friend status for thirty years. He keeps himself busy by working at Brenton Sawmill in Maplehaven, Vermont and taking care of his grandmother who raised him after his mother died. Without Nana, he's sure he wouldn't have made it this far, and now Noah is returning the favor. Life is good, but would it be better if he put complications aside and shed his Best Friend status? Krista Davidson runs the business side of Birch Peak Adventures with efficiency and precision while raising her son, Luke, with all the love she has to offer. She's all he has since his father has been classified as MIA for the past five years. Krista's been waiting for her soldier husband to return, but even when he'd been home in Vermont, there had been a distance between them. At least Luke has Krista's two best friends, Noah and Dakota, for positive male role models. When Luke finds himself in danger early one winter morning, Noah leaps in to rescue him, risking his own life in the process. Krista's eyes are opened to everything Noah has to offer her and her son. Maybe the line between friends and more than friends isn't as solid as Krista thinks it is.
