Finally!

We finally find get the story of the real Conner O'Hara. Conner was the first born son of the Maitland Matriah Megan. He is not use to having a family or people to be so concerned about him.When this book opens, Conner finds out that the little baby found on the Maitland Maternity Clinic steps is actually his baby boy. Born to him and Lacy Clark. Lacy used to work for Conner's adoptive parents. When Conner's mother (or the woman he thought was his mother) died, Lacy tried to console him and that is when the baby was conceived. Conner didn't want to be interested in Lacy and didn't want her to be interested in him. Conner was so much older than her, he felt she should have someone her own age. Lacy wasn't trying to hear it. She wanted Conner.I think this is a good installment to the series. It was very emotional though. Megan trying to communicate with her son and vice versa.Be sure to read the book before this one. Toddler's Tale another great one.

A strong relationship drama

Connor O'Hara had no idea he was a father until very recently, but he is feeling all the paternal instincts in one rush. Janelle Davis and her spouse Petey have kidnapped Connor's child Chase demanding $5 million for the safe return of the baby. During the exchange, Connor gives the money to Petey, grabs Chase, and dives into the safety of the nearby vacant sugarhouse. Gunfire is exchanged leaving Petey dead and an acrimonious Janelle in custody. Though Chase is safe, Connor wants to be part of his life. He needs to persuade Chase's mother Lacy Clark that he wants to nurture and raise the child even as he wants her in his life too. However, everyone has much to contend with beyond the dangerous abduction as secrets have been revealed with more to follow and Janelle still proves quite a threat to the well being of those touched by the expanding Maitland brood. The twelfth Maitland Maternity tale is a strong romantic suspense novel that starts in first gear and never slows down until the end. The story line is entertaining though readers might need a score card to keep track of all the revelations since the series began. Lacy and Connor are warm lead characters and the support cast adds the usual depth expected from this touching series. Marie Ferranella augments what is turning into one of the better long running romantic series authored by different writers in quite a few years.Harriet Klausner
