Rate this book
He never expected to be a father…

Then suddenly he was raising twins!

Jared Hornby has his hands full caring for his orphaned niece and nephew—and could sure use some help on the home front. Nurse Ashley Ross's motherly touch is just what they need. Having grown up in the foster care system, she understands the longing for a family. Although she told herself she would never get close to another man, helping Jared with the children forges a bond between them. Can he convince her to stand by him—not only for the summer but for a lifetime?

Very cute story. I'm not very religious but the way god was spoken about in this book even touched a place in my heart about the plan and timing of life. I loved both characters in this story and their dedication. It was a sweet summer read.

A Family For Summer by Lois Richer. Jared Hornby found himself caring for his orphaned niece and nephew who are twin six year old. Jared lost his twin sister and her husband. He is a junior high teacher, not making much money. Nurse Ashley Ross enters their lives. Jared has done construction in the past and not working during the summer time. Ashley hired Jared to remodel a place she wants to turn into a home for foster children. A lot of ups and downs in this book. Trusting God is a big issue. A good read.

These 'Love Inspired' romances by Harlequin are pretty fluffy . . . they are squeaky-clean though . . . so they're good when I want a quick, no-thought read and don't want to have to worry about any questionable scenes.
