I absolutely loved, loved, loved this book and really want more! David's character was written brilliantly! The author allowed him to be the hurt, cheated on character without making him whiny or bitter.

Jackson has a lot of experience in construction and has a lot of friends in the business. When Jackson shows up and saves David from a smoke-filled house, he turns out to be a lot different than David expected. His mom offers him the number of a local handyman, the son of her good friend. He had just been looking to put down roots near his mom but instead he ends up with what quickly becomes a money pit.
