Okay, December 20, 2004
This is the prequel to "The Miracle Wife," in which we first encounter Nick Colter, Dani Sheraton, and Gem the talking computer. It also reintroduces some characters from "Jinxed." Briefly, Nick comes back from a business trip overseas to find that Dani, his former partner's widow, is pregnant with his child. He railroads her into marrying him, and Dani spends the rest of the book trying to pry declarations of love out of her new husband, whose troubled childhood has made him occasionally appear to have no more emotions than one of his beloved computers (which are actually pretty emotional themselves, in a mechanical sort of way).
This is an okay book if you can handle Nick's amazing arrogance, but it doesn't measure up to "The Miracle Wife."

And the bride wore...maternity!, March 28, 2011
Nick Colter can't foget the one night he spent with Dani Sheraton. Neither can Dani - their baby's arrival is, well...imminent. But, for nine months, she's kept her pregnancy a secret from him, knowing that Nick's past has left its scars. He doesn't love her, doesn't seem capable of loving anyone. Within twenty-four hours of Nick's return, Dani finds that she's a wife and a mother. Now all she has is a lifetime to teach her new husband about love!
Review: The book is light and entertaining. Dani is the widow of Nick's business partner, although how that came about is a bit confusing - I felt like I missed part of the book somehow. The story is sweet overall and the interactions with the computer are hilarious.

Searching for Leclaire, July 29, 2010
I read this book years ago and has since then been searching high and low for it. Yes, it was THAT memorable. It made Leclaire one of my top authors, it made me in love again with Robert Redford (it's the blond hero, you see). I love this kind of second-chance love, the tormented hero believing that the heroine did not return his feelings. The heroine had some doubts due to her past experience. And throw in a gem of computer software to shake them all up. A delightful, delightful book.
