Two single parents find love in small-town Idaho Jack Reardan is not easily seduced. But the beautiful, outspoken new high school English teacher is raising the temperature of every red-blooded male within striking distance. And tongues start wagging when Jack makes up his mind to get to know the skittish single mother a little bit better. The most eligible man in town is exactly the type that Beth Simms vowed to stay far away from. Jack Reardan might be an upstanding citizen with a delightful daughter, but Beth knows better than to trust that sexy smile. Even if her toddler son calls him “daddy” . . . even if the passion heating up between them could ignite the whole town. Then Jack whispers those three little words, and Beth knows she has finally come home—if she is ready to take a chance on a love that could make two families one. This ebook features an extended biography of Mary Kay McComas.
