About the Book 
He ran from his broken heart…
Seth Turnquist never thought his heart would mend after being shattered by his former love, Amelia Christiansen. But three years away from Deep Haven fighting fires as a smokejumper have burned her away, leaving fresh soil for a new love. Still, he’s ready to put Deep Haven in his rearview mirror for good, which means selling the custom log home he built for Amelia and walking away from the family business. But what he doesn’t realize is that the seeds for a second chance have already been planted…
She loved him from the sidelines…
Ree Zimmerman couldn’t let herself love Seth—not when he was her best friend’s boyfriend. And after Amelia broke his heart, there simply wasn’t anything left in him for Ree except friendship. But that never stopped Ree from dreaming of a happily ever after with the lumberjack from Deep Haven. When he returns home for his grandfather’s birthday, she’s not about to let him walk away, again…
Return to Deep Haven in this charming homecoming story about the second chances that await us when we let the past go.

My Thoughts
"Only You" is a prequel to the new Deep Haven collection. I loved being back in Deep Haven and getting reacquainted with the residents there. I liked the characters and the growth they underwent. Even though it was a quick novella, it didn't feel rushed. Ree and Seth had known each other their whole lives, so it wasn't like they had to get to know each other. I look forward to the new series and getting to spend more time in Deep Haven.
