Josie Taylor and Cooper McBride met and fell in love immediately. They are devoted to each other, and after five years of marriage, are still happy. But a tragic accident leaves Cooper and Josie two young children to care for. Josie has a job that takes a lot of her time. She doesn't want the kids interfering in her career or her marriage. She'd like to find the children a good home with loving parents. After some hesitation, Cooper wants them to adopt the children. He bonds with them immediately and can't see handing them over to strangers to raise. They try to work a compromise about the situation, but this is a big strain on their marriage.
This book didn't feel like a romance. Josie and Cooper are living their Happily Ever After when her brother is killed and things fall apart. I loved the character of Cooper in this story. He takes care of the kids, even though he doesn't know what he is doing. He gives up his home office and cuts back on his work in order to give the kids a stable home. Josie wasn't likeable at all. She grew up poor and feels that she must keep making money or she is a failure. I wanted to shake her. She has a rich husband and doesn't even need to work for a living. She's so driven she has made herself sick. Each time she and Cooper would fight about something, he would be the person who would do the compromising so she could continue working. I wasn't surprised when he had enough of it. Obviously, her husband came second to her job.
This was an interesting story. I wanted to see what would make Josie finally see the light. I was beginning to think it wouldn't happen at all, but eventually it did. My rating: 3.5 Stars.
