When this story opens, Kari is a hurting soul. In the last year, she has lost her mother and had her engagement broken off. Now her closest friend and relative has gotten married and moved away. She feels very alone. And then she meets Randy. What was it about him that made her feel so at ease, enabling her to put aside all her previous anxiety attached to the wedding? He was nothing like Geoffrey, her previous fiancé. No, this man had the sense of humor Geoffrey completely lacked and a sincerity Geoffrey wasn’t even capable of. Still, Kari had loved him and now he was gone. All that remained were the wounds and the grief left in his wake. Meeting Randy Steele had momentarily taken away all those miserable feelings and replaced them with…amusement, she reflected.
And what are Randy’s first thoughts about Kari… Randy leaned back in his chair, trying to look at ease but all he could think about was Kari’s alluring green eyes and how delicate and irresistible she looked when she blushed. There was just something about her. The day they met in the rain she’d had a wreath of damp, brown hair curling around her face and the most incredible eyes, even though they were filled with anxiety. He wanted to see those eyes again. They were an unusual shade of green, appearing like a creamy sea green you might see out in the ocean after a storm.
