Carl Whitfield and Camila Torres.
This is the first book in the series but it does refer to the previous Chance Creek series and some characters from that series appear in this story.
Neither Carl or Camilla are local to the area so they should be neutral to the feud that is going on between the Turners and the Coopers but they are adopted into the 2 families through business and general life.
They both like each other but lots of things keep them apart, the main issue being Karl has yet to actually 'settle' in Chance Creek and Camila is reluctant to get involved with him as she wants to stay. Despite the main issue there are lots of other things keeping them apart and the unraveling of these is part of their fight to be together.
Carl proves dependable and he tries so hard and Camila learns a lot about herself too.
The story is sweet, no cheating, no o/w or o/m drama and a HEA. There is plenty of material there for other characters for the rest of the series and the groundwork is laid for a few couples already.
Looking forward to seeing how the series progresses.
ARC.
