Love At Last

Kay Sherwood found her husband Perry, with another woman, Perry hits Kay, and when he gets home he beats her, this is one of many beatings she has had from Perry, only this time she has had enough, she fights back, but instead of stopping his abusive actions, it makes him that much more abusive, when Kay finds Perry is about to rape her she screams, a neighbor breaks down the door. So she avoids being raped, but Kay is already pregnant she just doesn't know it yet. She gets a divorce from Perry, but he has never made any child support payments nor has he made an attempt to see his little girls. Kay has two adorable 4 yr-old twin girls Emily, & Georgia, plus her mother Leonora Brown who after Kay's father died Leonora found he had put all his money into gambling and lost everything. Kay gave her mum a place to stay in exchange for baby-sitting the twins. Now Kay is caring for her brother Peter, who lost his job, she starts a carrier service that soon becomes almost too much to handle. Kay mentions she needs to hire another person just to answer the phones, but we never get back to her job, it kind of gets lost after Mitchell Grey shows up. After making a delivery to his office, Mitchell is intrigued with the tiny red-haired woman. Only to find she could live happily without ever knowing him. This piques his ego. The next thing I know he tricks her into going to lunch with him, by mentioning he has a job in mind for her carrier service, Mitchell doesn't. When Kay finds she has been tricked she goes to the ladies, and climbs out the window. I laughed until my sides hurt. Even though Kay hurt her knees, she escaped. But instead of getting rid of Mitchell it fired his interest. He has never had a woman do so much to avoid him. Then when Mitchell finds Kay has two children, and he tells himself to run as fast as he can the other way. Of course he doesn't. We get two romances in one, with Leonora and Mitchell's housekeeper Henry, as well as Mitchell, Kay and Kay's two cutie kid. I have always been a sucker for kids in books, and although Emily & Georgia disappear now and then, they make the book. When Georgia, Leonora and Kay go down with the flu, Mitchell drops everything and speeds to the rescue. Mitchell turns his home into a child's dream for Xmas and he has as much fun as the little girls do. This is a heart warming love story that is sweet, the ending give me a warm fuzzy feeling. From the back of the book: 'She's a beauty...When Kay Sherwood steps into Mitchell Grey's office he's so fiercely attracted to her fiery good looks he insists that she join him for dinner. Can she tame the beast? But up until now Mitchell has indulged only in no-strings affairs, and the suave tycoon is taken aback by the intense passion that's threatening to develop. Becoming more intimate with Kay-a single mom-would be just too dangerous! But Mitchell hasn't counted on the fact that Christmas in coming; some special seasonal magic is about to change his mind!'
