Product Description

"I have your son. . ."

A routine medical exam told widowed Marie Cadant that her little boy had been switched with another at birth. But when she tracked down wealthy Peter Hallock-the man who had her biological son-she was surprised to find another single parent, and one eager to love not just his own child, but hers, as well.

even as they struggled to keep their children close despite their far-flung homes, Peter was intrigues by Marie's inner strength and deep faith. He prevailed on her to accept a marriage of convenience for the children's sake, then faced the challenge of convincing her that despite the circumstances, theirs was a marriage truly made in heaven.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book, September 5, 2005
Marie Cadant is a widow who discovers that her little boy was switched with another at birth. She tracks down wealthy Peter Hallock - a widower who has her bioligical son and is the father of the boy she has been raising as her own. They marry for convenience because they each love both boys and feel it best for the boys. This is a terrific book! I really loved it! Much interaction between Marie and Peter. Not too sad, but has some humor and good times in the story line. A "keeper" that I will read again in the future.

4.0 out of 5 stars Too short but a keeper, September 4, 2006
By Mary Ann Anderson (Nashville, TN USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
My only complaint about this and other Love Inspired books is that they are too short. I would like to have spent more time with Peter and Marie and their sons, Ricky and Luke. Peter and Marie took what was a real tragedy and turned it into something beautiful that enhanced their lives and the lives of their sons.

I think Ms. Hake showed real insight when she showed how Marie wanted to have a relationship with Luke, who was her biological son but at the same time at first was threatened by Peter's desire to have a relationship with Ricky, who was his biological son. For the sake of her son she was able to overcome this jealousy but the acknowledgement that she experienced it, even briefly, added to the credibility of this story.

This book did not delve as much as I would have hoped into the dynamics of "blended" families and was not "deep" reading but I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it and that is why I read...for enjoyment. Guess that's why I don't give two hoots in Hades for what the "experts" say in their reviews and why I don't care what Oprah recommends or what makes the Bestseller list.

I am hoping there is a story about Sandy in the near future and that her book also gives me another glimpse of Luke and Ricky! This book is a keeper!

5.0 out of 5 stars "Mixed Blessings" by Cathy Marie Hake, July 30, 2008
I LOVE THIS BOOK! This is a beautiful story! There is so much emotion and feeling in this story that I could hardly put it down! I love the way Hakes writes about the charaters thoughts, feelings, and prayers. As a mother myself, all I could think about while reading this book was,"Oh my goodness, how would I feel if I found out that, after 3 years, I had nursed,raised,and loved a child that was not my biological son?" That would be so scary because I would want my biological son but, I would not want to give up the son I had raised for 3 years. That's why this book is so beautiful! It is romantic too! You will not be disappointed with this book! If you are a mother(or father) it will tear at your emotions the whole time, make you feel romantic, make you laugh, and show that love truly is the greatest gift. God bless you!
