Paddy and Jenny’s Story

In the previous book in this series it was obvious and that Paddy and Jenny had ‘feelings’ for each other in some way. It’s in this book that we see the depth and nature of those feelings.

Paddy has always been considered a playboy in Wilhelmina, but gossip doesn’t always give the full picture. Part of it is because he’s stunningly gorgeous, still at 55, and a lot of women want him, and part of it is for certain periods of his life he was a bit of a playboy. He’s always worked exceptionally hard with the construction business his father left him when he was still a relatively young man, and he built it up into a very successful enterprise.

Jenny is Joke’s little sister and she runs the diner and is an exceptional cook. She was married for 10 years to a man who hit her. She’s been pretty lonely for a while because her only female friend was killed 15 years ago and it’s only since Lee has been in town has she had that kind of closeness with a woman again. She spends a lot of time on her business and the rest with her brother and his friends, with occasional trip out of town for a discreet good time.

When Paddy hears about her trips out of town to a local MC and is faced with the president asking whether she would open to becoming his old lady, Paddy goes a bit out of character, loses his cool and claims she’s already HIS old lady. This incident gives them both a kick up the backside to see if what they want could actually happen.

One of the things I love about this series, and this book in particular, is it is about strong women who have experienced life, been knocked down by it a bit, but picked themselves up and got on with making a go of it. They are also compassionate, funny and sexual beings into their 50s. I also like that the books are not only about romance, they are also about family, friendship and loyalty. They also have an interesting plot that introduces peril.

Highly recommended for people who enjoy romances but are no longer in their 20s!
