Back to Flanagan-land

Claire Delany, single, successful executive assistant, is planning the wedding of her best friend. She runs into immediate flack when she approaches Brendan Flanagan, single, handsome pastor of the church where the wedding is to take place. Claire needs Brendan's cooperation in getting the wedding exactly the way Claire has envisioned it. Brendan, on the other hand, doesn't believe this huge wedding is what the groom, Brendan's own cousin, really wants. Brendan's abrasive `know-it-all' attitude irks Claire, and their independent and strong personalities clash instantly. First is that he is a pastor and Claire wants nothing to do with religion. In fact, if she didn't need the church for the wedding plans, she would never put foot inside to begin with. But, she does need to get Brendan on her side, so they strike a reluctant, uneasy bargain: Brendan will help with the wedding if Claire will help him with a questionable group of teens that he has meeting-unsanctioned-at the church. This is another thorn in Claire's side. She has no experience with teens, except when she had been one. Now, Brendan expects her to mentor these rowdies - namely, to teach them how to present themselves to potential employers and help prepare them for a respectable and productive future. These are all the ingredients for a romance strewn with problems, misunderstandings, mischief and faith. As Claire works with the kids she realizes she is actually enjoying herself. Brendan is drawn to Claire, but holds back because she is not a believer. Claire cannot deny her attraction to him but there is this God-thing she can't quite get into. both are wary and hold back their attraction, stifling their emotions and feelings for each other. UNLIKELY HERO is another good read from Steeple Hill and author Marta Perry. You'll love these characters. This is book two of The Flanagans - HERO IN HER HEART (April 2004) is book one. But you don't need the other book to thoroughly enjoy this one. Both Brendan and Claire are great characters that you will want to love, cheer on, and throttle all at the same time.
