Beth Simms has been hurt too many times by men to risk falling in love with Jack Reardon. However, she finds his charms too much to resist, as does her two-year old son who calls Jack "daddy" the first time he sees him. The opening chapter is one laugh after another as Beth and Jack meet for the first time at a car wash. Another hiliarious moment occurs when Jack wants Beth off the roof she's trying to repair, and Beth, while proclaiming she can do it herself, decides to put her foot through the roof. From that moment of hilarity, comes a tender moment between the two of them that expands as the book continues. My favorite thing about this book was the clever way Mary Kay uses "cliches" at the beginning of every chapter, and writes the chapter around those "Familiar Words"....
