Blindsided by her mother’s sudden death and wrecked by a recent love affair, Casey Peabody has arrived in Massachusetts in the summer of 1997 without a plan. Her mail consists of wedding invitations and final notices from debt collectors. A former child golf prodigy, she now waits tables in Harvard Square and rents a tiny, moldy room at the side of a garage where she works on the novel she has been writing for six years. At 31, Casey is still clutching onto something nearly all her old friends have let go of: the determination to live a creative life.

When discipline is your life, structure’s a good thing, and Owen Johnson’s got plenty of both. An All-Pro NFL center who’s also a cattle rancher? Yeah, that’s structure. His marriage didn’t work out, but then, he picked the wrong woman. A Wyoming ranch doesn’t look nearly as romantic up close. Not to a model, anyway. Next time, he’ll choose better. Not, for example, a 19-year-old ball of fire like Dyma Cardello, who’s just starting on her own journey. To become an astronautical engineer. After about five years of schooling. Which she’s focused on like, well, a rocket.

Publisher's summary
Nothing will distract Isla Flores from her Paralympic goals.
Her world is work and training, nothing else matters. When her coach and best friend Duncan challenges her to make a 10-item bucket list, she's forced to think about life off the track.
The more time she spends with Duncan, the more value she sees in everyday life...and love.
Duncan Schmitz went from homelessness to his dream job as a youth pastor.
The only problem is that he's loved Isla from afar for as long as he can remember. He's taken it upon himself to remind her what life is like off the track. And maybe also remind her he's not just her coach, but the one who's cared about her the longest.
Get this sweet, heart-warming, friends-to-lovers romance by best-selling author Kari Trumbo that sounds like a Hallmark movie.

Venus Johnston has a great job and a long-term, live-in boyfriend who happens to be a drop-dead gorgeous doctor. She also has a weekly beauty-parlor date to keep her long, nappy hair slick and straight. But the tedious hours and harsh chemicals in the salon have long grated on Venus. One frustrating day, she trades in the long hair for a dramatically short, natural cut and sends her commitment-balking boyfriend packing. It's a bold declaration of independence and one that has effects she never could have imagined.

Love comes First
Infirmities do not define a person. This wonderful narration of Ms. Trumbo's story comes to life to remind us all that God's plan is the best plan. Even if that means injuries, deformities, and mental challenges have happened.
Always push forward, but understand that God has it under control. Even if it isn't what you originally thought you wanted.

An Ambitious Young Lady!
I really liked this story with its two main characters, who, over the years really get to know each other and cannot for their own reasons admit to their love.
Kari Trumbo has written a delightfully inspiring story weaving in trust, hope, ambition, near tragedy, love and romancing just to name a few things. I mean, what more could one want in a story?
Emmalyn Miles read it very nicely and I enjoyed this combination of author and narrator. Its a fitting story for this time of the year.
I listened to an audiobook version and my unbiased review above is given voluntarily.

Better Than First
This is a short sweet story of how Duncan shows Isla there is so much more to life than coming in first.
Another well written story by Kari Trumbo.
Lovely narration by Emmalyn Miles.

A clean Christian romance
This is a clean Christian contemporary romance about two individuals that have been friends since their youth.
Duncan Schmitz was homeless and Isla Florez’s family took him in.
Isla, has been in a wheelchair all her life and obsessed about entering the paralympic games with the help of Duncan as her coach.
Both are attracted to each other , but neither has wanted to take the chance of losing what they have.
When Duncan encourages Isla to write a bucket list, it gives them a chance to spend together away from training , and allows Isla an opportunity to see that life isn’t only about proving herself through her competition.
I have to confess that while I enjoyed Duncan as a caring , and dedicated individual, Isla came off a tad selfish and self-centered.
That said, it was thought provoking and I would definitely listen and/or read additional stories by this author. I did find that the narrator went too fast and had little intonation.

sweet story
this was both a new to me author and narator. I liked the story a lot, not really preachy while still mentioning god and praying and church. which is what I prefer, like, it's there, but it's not all the story is about. as someone who has spent some time in a wheelchair, I loved the story itself, of how Duncan was always there. I don't want to spoil the story, but it was so adorable in places.
the narator was a little dry for me I wouldn't say robotic, but it felt more like she was just reading words, not really trying to bring the story to life. I won't avoid her going forward, buy not my first choice either

Such A Sweet Story!!
I am writing this review in March, and even though this is a book focused on Christmas you can listen to it any time of year.
Isla and Duncan are both the sweetest main characters. They have been friends for years, but they are afraid to let the other know they have deeper feelings as they don't want to mess up their friendship.
All Isla cares about is racing and Duncan is a youth pastor. Duncan tells Isla to make a list of 12 things she wants to do. He will try to make as many of them happen as he can. I won't give away anything else.
This book is perfect for those who love Hallmark, super sweet romances, friends to lovers, Christmas inspired books, etc.
I will listen to this story and over and over as it is so sweet! I will be trying other books by this author as I just loved this story.
The narration was nice as well. I felt like I was in the characters heads instead of listening to a narrator.
I received this audiobook at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
