back of the book

The picture-perfect town of Trinity Harbor, Virginia, is in an uproar when Robert "King" Spencer's sensible spinster daughter takes in a modern-day Huck Finn she found hot-wiring her car. But Daisy, a spirited beauty with a tragic past, needs this orphaned ten-year-old boy to love. She's confident she can handle her bullheaded father - the self-appointed town patriarch - her two bossy brothers, concerned pastor and social services. The only real obstacle is . . . that man.

That man is Tommy's uncle, Walker Ames, a tough D.C. cop whose ex-wife gave up on him as a husband and father years ago. Perhaps this unexpected nephew is Walker's chance to redeem his failure as a family man. Soon he's commuting to the charming fishbowl of a town where everyone assumes he's seduced Daisy Spencer, their best Sunday school teacher. But to Walker, Daisy is a disconcerting mix of smart-mouthed innocence and wicked temptation . . . .

For Daisy, Walker and Tommy, a long, hot summer in the town that's not as sleepy as it seems offers a second chance at family.

When I started to read it, it felt like a typical romance novel… and it is! All the stereotypes are in it – controlling father, brothers who only want to help out, people not minding their business and the outsider set to sweep away the local girl. Still, it’s one book not easy to put down as the author really knows how to get you hooked on it. The writing is simple and entertaining at the same time. You love to hate the controlling father and cheer for the main character, hoping that she will find happiness. If you want a comfy read for a stormy winter evening, it’s the book for it! Otherwise, if you don’t really like romance book, I wouldn’t recommend this novel.
