At Home in Wishing Bridge by Ruth Logan Herne

After surviving the streets of South Philly, Thea Anastas never thought she’d wind up working in rural New York. But a call from a friend in need convinced the nurse practitioner to make the trip. Now her temporary position is making a difference in Wishing Bridge—though Thea can’t afford to make a difference, to fill a gaping hole in the sweet, small town. After all, the current medical practice is being dissolved in three months, and bigger opportunities are luring her away…
Her partner, Dr. Ethan Brandenburg, has his own struggles: caring for his orphaned niece and nephew and holding firm to his decision to leave Wishing Bridge for a prestigious job in Chicago. Though Thea’s no-nonsense advice in the office has been good for business, her compassion in Ethan’s personal life has been good for his heart. But how can he offer a commitment to a woman when they’re both about to say goodbye?
Wishing Bridge may be surrounded by forests and farms, but Thea is starting to realize that friendships and family form its heart—and that what she wants in life and love may be right in front of her eyes.

This is the second book in the series.  I didn't read the first book and it probably would have helped me understand some of the references made and some of the situations.  I also thought that Mara's age was wrong.  I have a seven year old granddaughter and there's no way she could have some of the conversations that Mara had.  I'm thinking more like a 10 or 11 year old.  Overall this was a good book.  I'm looking forward to Jazz's story.

I was given this book by NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.  I was not compensated in any way.
