The handsome firefighter makes a living coming to people's rescue, but Gin is used to fighting her own battles. Nothing has ever come easy for single mom Genevieve Lightly. Over the years, she's managed to pay the bills waitressing, and she is deeply devoted to her daughter, Raine. Gin has been satisfied moving from city to city, never putting down roots or making commitments. But when engine trouble temporarily strands them in the small town of Banister Falls, Wisconsin, Gin promises her daughter they will stay put until Raine graduates from high school in the spring. Dan Moretti couldn't imagine a life without Evie, but she married his best friend. After Max died while fighting a huge blaze, Dan has looked out for Evie and her son, Cody. Evie has always made it clear she thinks of him only as a friend, but Dan has secretly held out hope that her feelings would change. When a small town scandal erupts, Dan is caught in the middle and his loyalty put to the test when he realizes his feelings are the ones that are changing. He's falling for a beautiful, unconventional waitress named Gin. As Cody and Raine move closer to making decisions that will affect the rest of their lives, Dan makes a decision, too. But can he convince a woman who doesn't believe in happy endings to take a chance on a new beginning . . . with him?

Really enjoyed meeting Genevieve Lightly and her daughter Raine. You quickly learn that Gin is 'unsettled' in her wandering and when her daughter Raine asks to stay put to finish her schooling the fun or trouble begins. \\r\\nDan Moretti is a firefighter with a large, loving family. He lost his best mate and firefighting buddy Max many years ago and has been a constant support for Cody, Max and Evie's son ever since. \\r\\nCody and Raine meet at school and are assigned a project together. \\r\\nDan finds himself 'between' Evie and Gin. How will he best support them both? \\r\\nA great read with strong family and faith lessons. \\r\\n\\r\\nHope you enjoy it as I did!\\r\\n

Excellent
I found The Dandelion Field a fascinating looking at the two women, Gin and Evie. Both were teenage mothers and are now single parents. The difference is Gin's always been a single mother, having been dragged up by a single mother who kicked her out when she got pregnant and her boyfriend dumped her. She's never been financially stable, but has done her best to give her daughter a love-filled upbringing, even if they did move around a lot trying to find something better. \\r\\n\\r\\nEvie did everything """"right"""", in that she got married first. Her husband died, which at least left her financially secure enough that she's living in a house with a car that runs reliably, and isn't scraping for every dollar like Gin is. Yet she has her own issues, particularly that she's never really moved on from being the widow who relies on her childhood best friend, Dan, to be at her beck and call. As a result, Cody hasn't really grown up without a father figure: he's had Dan and all the other firemen. Raine has had no one. Cody has been raised in church; Raine hasn't, and for that reason Evie blamed Raine. \\r\\n\\r\\nThe Dandelion Field had the courage to venture out of the Christian bubble yet without crossing the line into """"edgy"""" or """"worldly"""". Well done. \\r\\n\\r\\nThanks to Zondervan and NetGalley for providing a free ebook for review.
