This is the 2nd book that I have read from this author. The first was Love Me Tonight which I only gave 2 stars, and was really not that happy with. This book I throughly enjoyed. The story was just soo good, and I am just dying to know what happens next with this family. Kudos Gwynne Forster.
After suffering from what seems like post partum depression and giving up her child for adoption, Justine Montgomery poses as a nanny to the baby's divorced father, Journalist Duncan Banks. One of the reasons I like this author's style if the flow of the story, since the characters seem to take their time before coming intimate.
This is one for the record books. The heart strings are definitely pulled. How does one overcome betrayal. You have infidelity. Secrets. Lies. And a child.
