FOUR LITTLE BLESSINGS (2008)
"The four little noisemakers who'd moved next door to Wade Dalton came with a bonus: their beautiful aunt. Raising the children herself due to some tough circumstances, Cassie Rankin impressed Wade with her selflessness and her beauty. But she was also at least a dozen years his junior--she was too young for him, wasn't she? Besides, Wade came with a secret that would only make life harder for Cassie and the children he'd come to adore, which meant keeping his distance. Something those four little blessings weren't about to let him do!"
The Heart's Forgiveness (2007)
Raising daughters wasn't easy for single dad, Grady Reynolds, especially when one daughter was a troubled teen. So he moved his family to a small town and hoped for a fresh start. Instead he found a reminder of the past: Maria Sanchez, his late wife's friend. Maria's life was busy, filled with mission trips and a job at a charitable foundation. Helping Grady regain his lost faith should have been fairly easy for her. After all, they were neighbors and coworkers. Except Grady wasn't ready to give or receive forgiveness...or love.

I know, it's crazy, isn't it! I literally have to time myself (thank you Pampered Chef!) so I get all 'this' done without sacrificing 'that'. Whew. Who knew a sit-down job would be so much work! LOL

Happy Wednesday, m'dear!
