Callie Haas has moved away from her family, which includes four older, very protective brothers, to prove to them that she can take care of herself. But now that she is in a new state and a new job, she just needs to find a place to live. With the help of her friends and a little luck from a charm, a home is not all she finds.

Luke Graham is the driving force behind LWG Technologies. With the expansion of his company, he needs more housing and that is putting a strain on people who work at the university. He meets Callie her first day there and realizes he is the cause of her housing problem. When she and his sister ask him to rent a property that he owns to Callie, he does which gives him reason to be near her.

Callie is not looking for a relationship. Now that she is out on her own, she wants to do everything herself without help from anyone. That includes Luke. When she finds an antique necklace in a small shop, she is told that it will lead her to her true love. But she has her doubts even though it hums when Luke is near. Is it possible that Luke is her true love or is that just wishful thinking?

A funny, charming and light-hearted romance. This story is filled with humor and mishaps that left me laughing. I feel for Luke and all that he goes through with Callie. Callie just wants to be independent which connects the reader to her character. Ms. Atwood has a very good sense of humor and it comes through amazingly in her story. This is just the beginning for this author and I anxiously await her next story.
