Five years ago, following the death of his father and just before
he left his hometown permanently Ben Kilpatrick shut down his family factory in
Haven Point, Idaho. Two hundred
residents lost their jobs. Current Mayor
McKenzie Shaw knows her beloved Haven Point has not recovered economically from
what the pariah did.
His techie partner Aidan Caine
(see Snow Angel Cove) insisted affluent businessman Ben return to a place he
hates almost as much as the townsfolk loath him. Though he doubts this is the right spot, Ben
considers whether Haven Point should be the locale for their new hi tech
venture. Reluctantly McKenzie must eat
her spittle and sell their town to the man who nuked the economy. After their opening war of words, neither
McKenzie nor Ben expected to fall in love, but two dogs knowing no human
boundaries thought otherwise.
The latest Haven Point Gem State contemporary is a
delightful small town drama due to the colorful locals like
the former Mayor. Though the storyline
starts slow, once the cast is set and the gloves come off; the bout between the
protagonists balances jocularity with serious economic and social issues, and
romance.
