Christmas At Candlebark Farm (2010)
“He loved his son. ‘I could never wish Jason away. I cannot regret having him.’ He might regret marrying Tammy, but he could never regret his son.

His hands curled into fists. ‘Yes.’ ‘And a struggle?’ ‘Yes.’ She folded her arms. ‘So it’s hard, and it’s a struggle, but you don’t regret your son?’ He didn’t know where she was going with this. ‘That’s right.’ ‘And you like your farm?

She reached out and poked him in the shoulder. ‘You’ve forgotten how to have fun.’ He didn’t have time for fun.MoreLess
