When Megan Grinnell discovers the brother she thought dead is alive, she’s thrilled. Now she’ll have a family. But her teenage brother, Riley, doesn’t remember her. Worse, the next door neighbor, Kade Sullivan, is his temporary guardian.
Meg is determined to do whatever it takes to win over her brother. Even if it means moving to Dogwood, a town littered with dogs, which terrify her. In addition, she has to find a way to convince Kade she’s the best guardian for Riley.
Kade swore to Riley’s father to watch over the boy. He’s not about to let this citified socialite take Riley away from Dogwood, even if she is his sister. Problem is, she’s attractive on many levels, which he really doesn’t need right now. He’s learned women aren’t to be trusted, and that includes Meg.
Can Meg overcome her fear and Kade his distrust of women in order to make the best life for a grieving, rebellious boy?
Why Did I Write This Book?
As someone who usually writes paranormal romance, writing a sweet romance presented a challenge, but once I met Meg, a young woman searching for her brother she’d thought long dead, I was off and running.
Riley was fun to write as I have a lot of experience with teen-agers and their ever changing moods. And I adored Kade, who wanted to do the right thing but wasn’t sure what that was.
Plus I had to add in cats since I live with three of them. Not only did Meg need to learn to love dogs, but so did the cats. What fun!!
