Product Description

This is one reunion Jonah Closky wants no part of. If not for his mother's wishes, he wouldn't even be meeting his estranged father and brothers. The real surprise about being at this inn, however, is Daphne Larson, an outspoken organic farmer who gives as good as she gets. Most remarkable of all, the smart, sassy single mother is making him yearn for things he doesn't even know he needs.

But taking their relationship further means coming to terms with his complicated feelings toward these men--his father and brothers. It means forgiving the past so he can build a future with Daphne...and finally have the family he's always wanted.

4.0 out of 5 stars enjoyable family drama, August 9, 2008

(#1 Hall OF FAME REVIEWER)    (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Worth Fighting For (Harlequin Large Print Super Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)

In New Jersey after struggling with a sour land deal that could destroy his firm, his mother begs realtor Jonah Closky to meet his father Patrick and two brothers Gabe and Max. Jonah tells her his father is thirty years too late and wants nothing to do with him or his siblings. They left his mom cleaning houses so she can feed him. Still he would do anything for her so he grudgingly agrees to meet his at his sibling's Riverview Inn in New York. There he is to meet with men whose DNA he shares, but has never met.

At the inn, the four males struggle with any form of bonding. However, Jonah has no trouble wanting Athens Organic farmer Daphne Larson in his life. Even more shocking to the real estate tycoon recently nicknamed unfairly The Dirty Developer", he finds he loves her daughter too. However, to have mother and daughter in his life, he must accept his father and brothers too.

This enjoyable family drama is filled with misunderstanding. Fans will appreciate the attraction between Daphne and Jonah that neither initially wants but soon cultivate. His point blank condemnation of his father and brothers add fuel to his war with Daphne. Readers will enjoy the latest Mitchell of Riverview Inn contemporary romance (see BABY MAKES THREE).

1.0 out of 5 stars hated the hero, April 21, 2011

This review is from: Worth Fighting For (Harlequin Super Romance) (Kindle Edition)

i hated the hero. he seemed to punish his father and brothers for no reason. only person in this is to blame is the mother. she did not tell her husband about him. the way he treated his brothers was very bad. the mother did not deserve a husband like patrick. she walked out on her sons. she was sick and she could have come back. she got off really easy. her other sons did not punish her enough compare to how the hero treated them. at the end she still want to leave and patrick did not let her. patrick loved iris more than she loved him. she wanted divorce early only patrick did not sign them. the previous two story about gabe and max was nice. they were nice men. compare to them jonah was a bad guy.

This review is from: Worth Fighting For (Harlequin Super Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)

After waiting over 6 weeks for this book to be delivered and 2 messages to the seller, I contacted Amazon. I was told I would have an answer in a little over a week. The response I recieved was not good, no reason why the book was not sent, just a refund for the book. If I hadn't wanted the book I would not of bought it. Now more than 6 weeks have passed and all I have is a refund for the book. Not good bussiness. The book was bought from Therault, so beware of that seller. i have bought many things from Amazon and never had a problem like this. Had to rate it a 1 star because it wouldn't let me go any futher with out selecting a star. If anything it's a big minus stars.
