I'm Your Man (Harlequin Next) [Mass Market Paperback]

Susan Crosby (Author)

Book Description

Series: Harlequin Next | Publication Date: November 6, 2007

There was a hot-looking man in her kitchen. And he was cooking!

Maureen Hart had never had a summer so crazy...not even the year she'd become a teenage unwed mother. Now her life was on track with a steady boyfriend and a big promotion looming. And the one person who could derail everything was now waiting on her doorstep!

Maureen's estranged daughter desperately needed her to care for her six-year-old son for several months. She just never imagined when she said yes that the child's gorgeous paternal grandfather, Daniel, would insist on staying, as well.

Quarters were getting interestingly close. But Maureen was technically almost engaged...and a workaholic...and a control freak. And totally about to cut loose and indulge in a little fun with a man capable of doing his own laundry!

5.0 out of 5 stars Who Does Maureen Want Ted or Daniel??, October 28, 2007

Ms Crosby has written a wonderful story for us! Our heroine Maureen Hart lives in San Francisco isn't even 40 yet and has a 6 yr old grandson, Riley. Maureen was only 17 when her daughter Jess was born and Jess turned around and did the same thing-the boy died before marrying her but she lives in Seattle next door to Riley's paternal grandpa, Daniel Gregg.

Maureen is a uptight workaholic and wants the promotion that will soon be available at work, has a boyfriend, Ted Montague, who she thinks will be proposing. They have a European vacation in just two weeks.

Maureen has that special feeling with Riley but wants even more--she wants him to be happy she's his grandma! Maureen does feel she has been cheated of a special relationship with both Riley and Jess. Daniel lured Jess & Riley to Seattle so he is not one of her favorite people.

Jess came to town one Saturday without calling and asked if Riley could stay for awhile with Maureen. Maureen is in 7th heaven with the prospect of having Riley to herself. Of course there is daycare to find for him with her job being a 10-12 hr day. Daniel shows up the next day and thinks just fall in place for him to be the daycare--he's a college professor and has the summer off.

I don't want to give anymore away but I loved Maureen in the beginning but as she *grew* into a woman of her own I thought she was even better! Ted also changed and Daniel was just himself. Maureen learns lots of lessons as she changes.

Great secondary characters too. Ted, the boyfriend, Aunt Cherie, one of the original hippies, and Maureen's dad,Bill, her best friend, Anza and her boss and friend Bernadette. They help Maureen be who she is and to move forward in life.

I loved this book! H/h are just great characters I wanted to get to know them and spend time with them. Ms Crosby has the best characters in her books!

Wry humor, once the heroine got past her bitterness towards everyone else in the book. Entertaining.
