Just Three

by Lorna Schultz Nicholson

Before Rory and Jillian's mother died two years ago, she hired Rebecca to be the family housekeeper. But Rebecca is a terrible cook and not so great at housework either. The weird lunches and laundry disasters drive the twins crazy. One day Jillian catches her father flirting with Rebecca and decides it's time to find him a girlfriend. Rory disagrees. But eventually he goes along with the idea, and they create a profile for their father on an online dating site. Dad is very reluctant, but Jillian gets him to agree to go on three dates before giving up. Each date turns out to be more disastrous than the last. Will Rory and Jillian manage to find their dad the perfect match? Or was the answer right in front of them the whole time?

[Stephanie H · Rating 3 out of 5]

When Jillian tries to set her widowed father up on a dating website, things don’t go exactly as planned.

This was a cute little book. Nothing too special, but it had a lighthearted story and a good epiphany for the main character. I will say that I didn’t find Jillian remotely likeable.

I do love hi-los for my seven and eights!

[Sheri Radford · Rating 3 out of 5]

There are a few story problems, such as the fact that Rebecca feels like a very recent addition to the household instead of someone who's been working there for two years, but overall this is an interesting novel that should appeal to reluctant readers.
