A Lesson in Love
Love lessons learned in this heartwarming romance.
Fired from her job and accused of a crime she has not committed, Tricia Paxton retreats to Coyote Creek to recover from trauma and rebuild her career. Though she shields herself from the past, her secrets challenge her relationships, and her new position as an elementary school teacher further complicates personal boundaries when an eye-catching stranger requires lessons of his own.
Carefree bachelor, Riley Flint, has problems, too. While focusing on building a veterinary practice, his plans grind to a halt when a daughter he has never known enters his life. Accepting the troublesome news that the mother has passed away and her maternal grandparents cannot offer their care, he assumes the responsibility of raising his daughter. But he has little experience with children and the girl needs more instruction than a man can give, so Riley approaches the new teacher for help.
Who knew a daughter to Riley and a student to Tricia would spark joy and conflict in a couple’s life? Daisy might complicate their romance, but Riley’s family urges him to embrace his new life as a father and welcome both Daisy and Tricia into his heart. Can love find common ground and unite a family or will Tricia’s past tear them apart?
Rebmay on Amazon wrote:Katie O’Connor rolled out a lovely sweet romance with this book. I felt like I had a vested interest in the story right from the get-go with the ‘small town’ dynamics playing a key role. Cowboys and veterinarians make wonderful heroes; combine the two in Riley Flint, and you have super wonderful!
...I can’t wait to read the next in the Coyote Creek series or any other of Katie O’Connor’s books, for that matter.
This small town, friends to lovers romance packs an emotional punch...
...Overall, this is a beautifully written, sweet, slow burn romance. The characters are so easy to love and engaging, that one becomes invested in their journey to becoming a happy family of three.
