I enjoyed this book from start to finish. The characters came alive for me as real people, with authentic problems and emotions. I especially liked the portrayal of the children, who made me laugh and cry. The author's style was easy to read with snappy pacing. Although humorous, the book was also poignant -- my kind of read.

"Daddy in Training" is a delightful story, fresh and animated, with some of the truest characters yet to be written. Rory is a heroine so down to earth she could be any one of us, and Seth is a hero we would all love to meet...and know. Even if you don't care for your romances loaded with kids, these children are a joy. The dialogue is snappy, and frequently made me laugh out loud. Yet, with the barest choice words, Ms. Bardsley evoked a sharp breath and twinge in my chest for the heartache our hero and heroine experienced. More, the love scenes were fresh. I enjoyed this book immensely, will read it again, and look forward to the sequel, "Bride in Training." I will definitely buy Ms. Bardsley's other books.

The author has a unique style. She led me through a great read, keeping the separte voices easy to identify without too many tags. I'm looking forward to her next book.
