With three rambunctious, young children, Melanie Lombardi can't see beyond the day-to-day struggle to maintain her home and her sanity since her husband's sudden death. A second chance at romance isn't on her radar.
Brian Perella is done with dating, resigned to being the fun uncle and never the dad. Until he meets Melanie and her brood of lively kids on the sidelines of a Little League game.
But when Brian uncovers a co-worker's secret, it re-ignites a temptation that Melanie can't know about. It's his secret to keep until an unexpected diagnosis brings everything to the surface, jeopardizing his future with Melanie and her children, who, when threatened by an unknown stalker, may need him now more than ever.
Catholic Christian contemporary romance.
My thoughts: I was surprised at the deep themes that were included in this story! I will include a trigger warning on this one, since it deals with a character who has been addicted to pornography, though is doing his best (with God's help) to over come it. I thought that the author did an excellent job of dealing with subjects like pornography addiction, widowhood, and raising young children as a single parent. I could relate to the feelings of embarrassment that Melanie has, as most parents will! I enjoyed getting to know Melanie, Brian, and the kids as they grew into an unlikely family. This is an excellent story to pick up!
