Although this is definitely a romance, there's a very nice secondary theme about family--about always having a place where you know you belong are are accepted.

Quote: “Remember, lovey, you'll just know. That's how easy love is,” her mother said.
Yeah, love was so easy, that’s why she was developing an ulcer."

Quote: Al took a step back and raised a hand in defense. “Yo, cookie boy, I get the picture. No need to sputter all over Uncle Al, here, 'kay?”

Also: the writing is solid. Good editing. Haven't noticed any unnecessary, overly-detailed, distracting, why-the-hell-did-they-put-this-in-here conversation as you see in some authors' work (and with my ADD, I'd be the one to notice!!).

In just these few short pages, I've been completely sucked in, man! This is very cute!
First cute quote: (Mitch's email to Lainy) "P.S. Bentley will tackle anyone who has root beer, so you might want to be careful about that."
