Kim Ascension is in need of a date. But this is a special occasion, requiring a very special date. In order to salvage any remaining shreds of dignity, Kim must not only hold her head high as her old roommate marries her ex; she must also do it in style on the arm of her small town's most eligible bachelor.

Greg Yamamoto, an ambitious young veterinarian, has returned home "temporarily" to attend to his sick mother, yet all the charms of 'home' eventually begin work their magic. As Greg begins to appreciate everything he left behind, including a certain small town bank teller, he feels obliged to stay. The town is delighted when he joins the staff of the animal clinic, and he is happy to rediscover his niche in the community. Kim and Greg are surprised to see each other. What is even more surprising is Kim's sudden invitation for Greg to be her escort to the dreaded Valentine's Day wedding. Romance is definitely in the air---the question is whether Kim can put aside old heartaches and give love another try, and whether or not Greg can lower his defenses and his need for practicality, and surrender to the mysteries of love.

Review:

"This sweet, charming reunion story features a pair of appealing, well-matched, ethnically diverse protagonists caught in a situation made to order for romance. A Hawaiian native, Mahon does a masterly job of putting a Hawaiian twist on an old theme and captures the caring, family-oriented flavor of a small town environment." -- From Library Journal
