Parents looking for a low-intensity romance for teens or older readers may find intimacy stays at a kissing-only level with no described explicit sexual activity.

He, too, had dealt with difficulties. The two shared their thoughts through letters, but when they finally met face to face, there was no magic. Both were surprised and disappointed, but it wasn't an easy subject to discuss. So, they didn't. Just as Valerie was settling in and making a difference, another tragedy struck their family. Would these two finally learn that sometimes joy comes after a tragedy? Would their hearts be able to handle the double dose of happiness that landed in their care? _____ This is another sweet romance by Annie Boone and The Sweet and Clean Book Club. Read more
