Something Borrowed

She’s borrowed a family. He wants them back.
They’re both playing for keeps…and maybe for love.

This Hometown Wedding is For Better…or Maybe Worse.

Mattie Keith inherited her best friend’s children. Now she’s being sued for custody by their uncle, Dr. Finn Wallace—Mattie's first and last crush. He can offer them everything money can buy. She can offer them…her heart and a real home in their hometown.

To make matters more complicated, Mattie and Finn are both wedding attendants in the wedding of the season, Sophie and Colton’s.

Is Finn standing in the way of Mattie’s happiness, or could he be her happiness in disguise?

I don't always set out to write a series of books, but seem to find myself gravitating to them. Because so many people have asked, I've posted lists of all my series in order at www.hollyjacobs.com/bookseries.html. I really try to make each story stand alone, but many of my readers enjoy reading the series in order. Hope this helps!

Thank you to everyone who's picked up a single book, or more of them. I'm so lucky to be surrounded by so much support!

Mattie is named guardian for her best friend's three children when her friend, Bridget, dies. She feels totally inadequate to the task. To complicate matters, Bridget's brother, a successful surgeon, has decided he would be a better guardian. As always, Holly writes engaging characters, especially the children. A lovely story.

This is the first book of Holly Jacobs I have read therefore I am not familiar with her style. The story was sweet , the characters were interesting. The tension between the two lead characters was there but fell flat at the end. Maybe I have been reading too many more intimate books so was disappointed that when they finally fell for each other it was off the page - no description to take me there emotionally. That was disappointing. Just a little would have been nice.

It had good potential but it was SO REPETITIVE! Too much description, not enough dialogue. Some mild swear words and sex behind closed doors. Not my style so I probably won’t read anything of hers again, although it wasn’t a total disaster. The story was still interesting with a slow burn romance.

I enjoyed this book! The story was predictable but sweet. I shed a few tears and read it one day! I will read more from this series!

cute read

Easy book to read. Nothing exciting happens in the story. It’s all pretty predictable. It did make me cry a couple times.
