Publisher Description
Opposites attract, but can their love last?
Knocked around by life—and then knocked up by a man she won't speak of—Sam Kendall gives her baby up for adoption.
Envisioning herself a lone cowboy, she avoids any relationships that might risk her heart. There's wonderful fun to be had if you don't fall prey to the ludicrous notion of true love!
Lately, though, her carefully constructed life feels less like freedom and more like loneliness. Plus, her daughter Aisha has tracked her down—seventeen years old and pregnant. Despite misgivings, Sam checks into River's Sigh Bed and Breakfast to meet her.
Then widower Charles Bailey, Aisha's adoptive father, shows up—and Sam can't control her outrage. What was her sacrifice for? She could've raised the kid to follow her stupid footsteps all on her own. And topping it off? Charlie's a neurotic, stodgy jerk—even if he is ridiculously hot and a romance author, of all things!
The longer Sam stays at River's Sigh, the more confused she gets. Maybe Charlie isn't so terrible after all. Maybe his approach to life—and all this family stuff—is something she could get hooked on.
But they're opposites in every way, and worse: he's Aisha's adoptive dad. A romance between them would be too weird, wouldn't it? Every part of Sam screams, Run.
Yet what if, in spurning Charlie and Aisha, she's turning her back on everything she never knew she wanted?

Plenty of twists and turns in this story. I love the character portrayals that make each person unique and believable even when their similarities are shown.
Ev did it again
You will also love this second of this series. You just don't want it to come to an end. In fact before I finished this second one, since my husband, our toy poodle, Nikki and myself were leaving in a week on vacation, I was determined I would have something great to read while sitting on the beach with Nikki and hubby surf fishing, so I bought the two remaining books so far, to read. You guessed it, I couldn't wait and read them. Couldn't help it, to good to have and not read. Do yourself a favor and read this series and just pray it isn't to long before more are available. Great reading
Wow!
I can’t describe how wonderfully written this book is. There’s drama, torturously deep trauma, heartache, family support and loving souls. I enjoyed the previous book, loved this one. Enjoyed how it dealt with death, heartache and a desire to be loved but not feeling worthy. It is a stand alone book with a happily ever ending that was beautifully written!
