Cute, lighthearted, funny & entertaining.....but I know for a fact Men Just Do Not Talk or Think like they do in this series..... ( )

First in the Trinity Harbor Series. When single level-headed Daisy takes in Tommy, a 10 yo orphan, until his extended family is located, the local tongues start wagging. And when his uncle, a sexy single Detective from DC shows up, and she allows him to stay with her during his visits to get to know the boy, then the town gossip erupts. And leading the gossip, is likely Daisy's cantankerous, know-it-all father. ( )

I enjoy her style. The plot is mostly predictable yet enjoyable. Nice romance with a little sizzle. I'd recommend it if you like romances. ( )

From BackCover:
The picture-perfect town of Trinity Harbor, Virginia, is in an uproar when Robert "King" Spencer's sensible spinster daughter takes in a modern-day Huck Finn she found hotwiring her car. But Daisy, a spirited beauty with a tragic past, needs this orphaned 10-year-old boy to love. She's confident she can handle her bullheaded father — the self-appointed town patriarch — her two bossy brothers, concerned pastor, and social services. The only real obstacle is...that man.

That man is Tommy's uncle, Walker Ames, a tough D.C. cop whose ex-wife gave up on him as a husband and father years ago. Perhaps this unexpected nephew is Walker's chance to redeem his failure as a family man. Soon he's commuting to the charming fishbowl of a town where everyone assumes he's seduced Daisy Spencer, their best Sunday school teacher. But to Walker, Daisy is a disconcerting mix of smart-mouthed innocence and wicked temptation....

For Daisy, Walker and Tommy, a long, hot summer in the town that's not as sleepy as it seems, offers a second chance at family. ( )
