The Family He Wanted (Silhouette Special Edition) [Kindle Edition]

Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Raised without a father, Jana McPartland did not want the same for her unborn baby. So when the daddy-to-be took a hike, she turned to her closest friend, Sam Harrison. He'd always been her refuge from the storm...and this was one heck of a hurricane she'd found herself in.

The bestselling novelist offered her a roof over her head, a paycheck for her hard work and all the safety she craved. Yet Jana found herself needing more from the brooding bachelor--to finally give in to the unspoken attraction that had always burned between them. But as a former foster kid, Sam wasn't the type of man who stepped out of his comfort zone.

Until he proposed!

More About the Author

As a nine-year-old, Karen Sandler was a horse-crazy kid with an over-active imagination. When that pony she begged for didn't appear on Christmas morning, she wrote about horses in poetry and stories. It took until she was an adult to both buy her first horse (the very unladylike Lady) and see her first book published. Since then, she's sold seventeen other books. In addition to writing novels, short stories and screenplays, she loves riding her beautiful Andalusian/Morgan mare, Belle (who is very ladylike). She lives in Northern California with her husband, Gary, and three cats--pleasingly plump Tenka, formerly feral Zak, and cranky diabetic Casper.

I thought that this was a very nice ending to the Fostering Family series. Both main characters had major issues to work through, but they were able to do so. Even though they didn't really come together until the end of the book that's something I've come to expect from series romances and it didn't diminish the book for me in anyway. I like the way the Epilogue tied everything up for the reader at the end.

Jana & Sam had to find each other thru so many emotions, & weights left from years gone by. The fact that Jana was already pregnant by another when she came back into Sam's life was the least of their problems. Sam wanted that baby to be his no matter what it took to make that happen. It was all the other stuff that got in the way. This book had a little sex, but it was such a good story that I overlooked that.

I just finished reading this book, it was a good book but the story line just ran on, I like a book that the two characters come together even if it's believed for a short term affair but this book waited all the way until the end to really get into the story line. It was an OK book.
