He never meant to be a father.

In Hope Crossing, Texas, nurse practitioner Kirsten Reynolds has found her dream job. The only problem is that the tiny town also has Deputy Brady James…the father of her four-year-old sons. And he doesn’t know the boys are his. But as he steps into this new role he never planned for, Brady gets a hopeful glimpse into a life with children. Will he let the fear of the unknown keep him from a future he never imagined…or will an adorable pair of twins—and their mother—change his mind?

My Thoughts:
The book is aptly named, because they had some serious secrets between them. Brady and Kirsten were happily in love once upon a time, till Brady told Kirsten no children. Unfortunately, for Brady, Kirsten was already pregnant. Though she keeps this news to herself. Fast forward to four years later, Kirsten moves back with the twins due to a new job opportunity. However, she needs to let Brady, who is running for sheriff, know about his sons as they look just like him.
I have to say that Brady's reaction was done well. He was not hotheaded nor really even angry, just shocked. Those are probably good attributes to have for sheriff. Controlled. He is also keeping some secrets from Kirsten as well. Maybe not as big as the twins, but possibly earth shattering too. It was the whole reason he let her go in the first place.
This is probably my second favorite trope, unknown children, and I felt the author showed the revelation and their growing relationship in a realistic manner. These two showed maturity, growth, and forgiveness in all the surprises. They also put their kids first, which would lead them to hopefully figure out what their kids needed most was their mom and dad together. I enjoyed this second chance love story.
I was provided a copy of this novel from the author. I was not required to post a positive review, and all views and opinions are my own.
