Police officer Connor Maclean leaves his job with the LAPD to move to Montana and pursue a relationship with Guy, a highly regarded contemporary Western painter with whom he shared one wild and passionate week. Initially, Guy pulls away from a relationship, but the two are brought together after a break-in at Guy's art gallery leaves him seriously injured and needing a caretaker. Connor takes on this task as a way to get closer to Guy, who now feels physically and emotionally vulnerable and must face the reality that he might never paint again. Guy acts out by throwing fits and kissing his old college roommate. He thinks he isn't good enough to be Connor's man, but Connor disagrees.
VERDICT In this second installment in Owens's "Love's Value" series (after Worth the Coming Home), Connor knows that it's hard to be dedicated to one person through ups and downs, but with Guy he learns that it's worth the effort. Despite the novel's slow start, the character development and sweet love story will keep readers engaged through the last page.
