From the back: "I'm going to marry him, Mum. At least, I am if I have anything to do wuth it." But Jake Lombardi turned out to have rather different ideas. He didnt want Laura's daughter, Julie. He wanted Laura. Or so he claimed. But how could any man prefer a middle-aged theacher with no experience of life in the fast lane when he could have her glamorous daughter? Whatever game Jake was playing Laura had no intention of falling for it. My thoughts: I normally dont like that older woman younger man story - not that he was THAT young and the heroine having a grown up daughter! However, the heroine was still supposedly attractive (yay!) and the hero was truly manly and not some young stupid hero. And (spoilers alert) dont worry, its not that perverted where the hero does the mother and the daughter - I would DEFINITELY have given this book a thumbs down if he did! I just thought it was cute that the hero falls for her, and she was all innocent and naive and doing her best to stop the attraction, etc. etc. Anyway, the story kept on going, didnt get me bored, and I was greatly anticipating when they both would finally hook up and understand each aka have their happy ending, haha! Anyway, bottomline, I loved the story. I'm typing this as I just finished my first reading. I think I'll re-read it again so I can relive the happiness =P
