Review by: Erin

This was my first book in this series. I really liked the characters and the story line. I like that Fiona was not made out to be the tragic single mother. Instead she is a strong, self sufficient, intelligent woman. I also liked that the relationship between her and her ex husband was not filled with hate and drama. 

Mike' s character truly is a good guy and not somebody pretending just to get the girl. He actually wants to take the time to get to know Fiona and go slow with their relationship to give himself time to determine if he can truly be what Fiona needs and wants. 

This was a very heartwarming story. Everyone gets along and is there for each other. I am now going to get the previous books in the series and catch up so I am ready for the next one!

Excerpt: 

"Fiona swallowed. Something warm and forbidden swirled in the pit of her stomach, then wound its way into her heart and other vital parts of her body. In the old days she’d tug him closer and take what she wanted. But this was a new day. A new Fiona. A more responsible Fiona who, unfortunately, couldn’t seem to get this man off her mind. “Then maybe this won’t work out.” She eased her hand from his and instantly missed the fire in his touch. “Maybe.” Those broad shoulders beneath that fresh cotton T-shirt lifted in a nonchalant shrug. “I’m willing to give it a shot if you are.” Give what a shot, she wanted to ask. The actual work? Or the sexual tension that ignited between them like gasoline and matches? A sigh expanded her chest. “If you’re going to work for me there can’t be any flirting. Or touching.” His smile widened to a grin. “It’ll be a pleasure working under you.” Oh boy."
