GRR Reviews No Regrets (The Wedding Dress Promise) by Ronnie Roberts

No Regrets set up a very interesting "twist" in the tale of an unlikely couple with plenty of complications to keep them apart.

Darby Walker is a free-spirit. She roamed Canada in her camper, seeking the best photo opportunities of whatever that struck her fancy. She wanted to get a lucrative tourism contract and was heading into Brennan Point when her camper was wrecked by the McKinnon family. She ended up living with the MacKinnon family, who felt responsible... but it's getting complicated... // Joe MacKinnon lost his wife to cancer and is living with his two children. The teenage son is rebelling hard (which indirectly lead to the wreck) and did not want anyone to replace his dead mother. Then Joe realized why he felt a connection to Darby... and the relationship gets VERY complicated indeed... Is Joe really looking to replace his dead wife? Or does she love Darby for who she is? When Darby won the contract, is she leaving, or staying?

Can say more without mentioning the twist, but it's a soap-opera worthy twist. And it was setup really, really well. The characters initially felt a bit simple, but fleshed out later in the book. Enjoyed it.
