Forever Inn Love

Callie and SJ are my new favorite Freedom Valley Couple! 
SJ and Callie were inseparable in high school. First loves and planning forever, but Callie's father threatens SJ. SJ leaves without warning.  Twelve years later they are both back in Freedom Valley fighting for their place in their community and for each other. 
This story has wonderful characters. I enjoyed how the characters came from different walks of life and showed a side to them that society may not see. 
SJ deals with PTSD due to his time in service. To me the author doesn't go in depth, but gives just enough to show what the character is going through. She handled it well. 
The main characters from previous books are not mentioned as much in this story as previous stories. While I adore those characters I enjoyed getting to know new characters such as Goldie and Sam in this story. 
The author keeps these stories lighthearted and closed doors, but I can still feel the heartbreak and happiness through her writing. It isn't fluff. 
This is book five in the series, but can be read as a standalone. This is my favorite from the series. 
Check TW. Book deals with abuse and the author puts a disclaimer at the beginning of the book. 
Thank you to the author for the ARC.
