From the back of the book:
Chief of Police Thatcher Brant didn't need Samantha Hogan, his aggravation-albeit attractive-neighbor, in his life. His affection was reserved for his children, two beautiful reminders of the past.
He'd chosen a safe woman to love the first time, but now this widower was finding it harder than ever to ignore the girl next door.
Samantha had a few thoughts herself about her good-looking neighbor. Thatcher's kids were adorable-so how could their dad be such a grump?
The children had the gift of Thatcher's love-and it was a treasure Samantha would give anything to share...

Chief of Police Thatcher Brant has lost his wife at the birth of his daughter two years ago.
His love is reserved for his son and daughter and his grief for his lost love. He doesn't need any help from his aggravating although attractive neighbor, Samantha Hogan.

Samanatha was Madeline Smythe's secretary but now is out of a job since Maggie married Colin and moved to Boston. Maybe a good place to hunt for a job.
But first she is talked into helping take care Chief Brant's mother, Maude and children, Johnny and Melissa. Maude has an alterior motive in insisting that Sam help out when she broke her leg.

Samantha tries to get Thatcher to talk, he doesn't do much communicating and learns that Josh Sayer is in trouble with Malcomb Norwood and his prize roses. And Sam uses Grandma Ada's dreaded Ouija board to help Josh out.
You will also learn a little bit about his mother, Emily Sayer.

Chief Brant forbids Samantha to bring that board any where near his place. That doesn't bother Sam as her talents lie in another direction. [grin] Her talents are most interesting. [It seems that Thatcher keeps popping up.]

The two have an unsettlingly strong attraction toward each other. And the interaction between Samantha and Thatcher and his children really pull you into the story.

We also meet Dr. Reid Prescott when Johnny needs his chin stitched up. You must pay attention as characters are interwoven throughout these stories. Most fascinating.

Does not have the same suspense as the first story but is excellent just the same. DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED - excellent series.
