Not to speak ill of the dead, even when they are fictional, but the dead wife Beth seems like a controlling and smothering wife and mother even from the grave.
As a result of her lesson in child-rearing as well as the hero's grieving, the H is a little shut down with his two daughters and every other statement out of his mouth is “Beth says this,” and “Beth says that”. He hires the much more free spirited h, do you see where the author is going with this, to take care of his two daughters. She's an orphan artist raised by two great-aunts and sees family dynamics differently than the narrow as a ruler H.
The H is wildly attracted to the h right from the git go and promise himself he will keep it business-like then proceeds to blow hot and cold like a teeny-bopper and takes every opportunity to kiss the h then apologize.
Nice little romance if you have nothing else go on, or if you don't want sex and exploding body parts tossed in your face.
Low energy romance and low-key kissing sum it up. I would check out Barbara McMahon again as her writing is well done.
Genre: Romance
