PROBABLY BETTER THAN I THOUGHT!

I find it hard to deal with a wishy, washy mentality.Alice Brannigan Meyers is approaching her thirty-fifth birthday, is divorced [through no fault of her own] and has received news that she is an upcoming grandma.Compliments of one of her twin daughters, Rebecca, who has just eloped. Poor Mike! She goes from haveing a bad week to toping it off with finding a wounded, blonde haired hunk. Who scares her to death [with a gun pointed at her], and then moves in with her.Gabriel Book is an undercover Federal Agent, betrayed by his friends and colleages, and left for dead. He is not sure, any more, of who he is - he has lost his Quaker upbringing and faith and his own personel identityWhat shakes him to his very roots is the way that Alice and her family take him in with [hardly] no questions asked. grin! Lots of questions but no disbelief.We meet Alice's 6 sisters [and what a mix] Meg, a petite redheaded management consultant, and married two years and no offspring.Helen, a Major in Military Claims Investagations. Not Married.Edith, a nurse, brunette with green eyes and two offspring.Twink, a brunette who manages a law office with a two month old son.Sam, a paramedic-volunteer-fireman, who is pregnant.and Grace, for whom all the sisters are helping to plan a wedding, and doesn't have the nerve to tell them that she and Phil Witoczynski have eloped.Gabriel and Alice seem to plumb the depths of each other, bringing about confusion and understanding which neither wants to face. Gabriel has to figure out who'd set him up and where better to hide than in plain sight. He felt safe at the home of an everyday woman planning a huge family wedding. He thought he would enjoy and get away with masquerading as Alice's new boyfriend. But that first kiss drew him into a realm he was unfamiliar with.Great fun and recommended --M. Alice does find some condoms in Allyn's room [the oldest twin] and she tells Gabriel she guesses he would know what to do with them. [tongue in cheek, of course]
