Can he find love again—with two adorable helpers?
A Liberty Creek romance
When the school board threatens to cut her art program, Emma Calhoun plans to fight for the job she loves.

But even as the handsome widower and his sweet little girls burrow their way into her heart, will he allow himself to love once more?
MIA ROSS loves great stories. She enjoys reading about fascinating people, long-ago times and exotic places. But only for a little while, because her reality is pretty sweet. Married to her college sweetheart, she’s the proud mom of two amazing kids, whose schedules keep her hopping. Busy as she is, she can’t imagine trading her life for anyone else’s—and she has a pretty good imagination. You can visit her online at miaross.com.

“I’d hate to be a third wheel.”
“Technically, you’d be the fourth wheel,” Rick corrected Emma, adding a mischievous grin. “And if you want to come, we’d love to have you. The girls, I mean,” he amended quickly.
“What about you?”
“What about me?”
“Are you honestly that clueless, or are you just messing with me?”
He laughed out loud. “Okay, you got me. It’s nice to have another grown-up to talk to, and you’re great company.”
“Really? But I’m so quiet.”
“And funny and sweet. I have to say, I’ve never met anyone quite like you, Emma. You’re one of a kind.”
“Does that work on the other women you’ve known?”
Suddenly, the humor left his expression. “Only one.”
“Sarah?” When he nodded, she steadied her voice. “I’m honored. May I ask you something?”
“Sure.”
“Do you think you’ll ever be able to think of her and smile?”
He took a moment to consider that and nodded. “Someday. People tell me the pain eases, but I didn’t believe that. Until recently, anyway.”
This is the final Liberty Creek book, and I couldn’t think of a better way to end the Calhoun family’s heartwarming story.
When Emma Calhoun appeared in the first book of the series, I liked her right away. Her quiet strength and resilience in the face of such a serious illness amazed everyone around her, and her unwavering faith was truly inspiring. Being creative and playful in a situation like hers isn’t easy, but those traits made her a great teacher and just the kind of person Rick needed in his life. For him—as for so many—regaining his emotional balance after the tragic loss of his wife felt almost impossible. Emma and his sweet, funny daughters showed him the way, and fortunately he was open-minded enough to follow them.
Maintaining a positive attitude during tough times in our lives can help us to accept what’s happened in the past and move ahead. While today might look bleak, tomorrow things will be better. No matter how slowly we seem to be going, moving forward is the important thing, because going backward simply isn’t an option. While I didn’t intend for this concept to be the theme of this series,
