Publisher Description
Devoted homemaker and mother C.B Lyons hadn’t known she was living a lie, right up until the moment when she caught her husband cheating. Betrayed and then divorced, with her dreams of a big, happy family smashed to pieces, C.B. takes her toddler son to Heritage Springs, Kentucky, to be near family. Typing manuscripts for a famous romance author seems like the perfect job until she discovers the hidden truth about the reserved, reclusive writer.
Madison Mallory is a best-selling romance author with a secret. “She” is a “he.” The original Madison is actually in a nursing home. Her son, Jamie Madison, is determined she’ll have the best care possible. Even if that means quitting his job and taking up his mother’s pen name to keep the romance—and the money needed for her care—flowing.
Writing about romance is one thing. Making it work in real life is harder for Jamie. C.B. has good reasons to distrust men, especially sexy ones with piercing blue eyes. When C.B.’s ex wants his family back, can the author and his assistant find a way to write their own happily-ever-after ending?
Customer Reviews
Super Duper Second Chance Romance!
Wow, double wow and triple wow, did I ever love this second chance romance! The plot line was unique in that a dutiful son (Jamie) takes over his mother’s romance writing under her name when Alzheimer’s takes away her ability to write any longer--the money from sales was to pay for her care. The one big hitch in Jamie’s plan was that he could not type and so he hired a typist to assist him—C.B., a divorced mother with a darling son. And therein lies the romance part of the tale. It was just absolutely wonderful, believable, funny at times and tender in others. I highly recommend this entire series and especially this story!
