After reading a serialized Mills & Boon book in a magazine, Penny Jordan quickly became an avid fan! Her goal, when writing romance fiction, is to provide readers with an enjoyment and involvement similar to that she experienced from her early reading – Penny believes in the importance of love, including the benefits and happiness it brings. She works from home, in her kitchen, surrounded by four dogs and two cats, and welcomes interruptions from her friends and family.

Sara did not believe she could love again after the death of her finance but an encounter with a neighbor shattered any peace she hoped for.

TheSuspect

This is one of Penny Jordan's best romances. The heroine is still mourning the death of her fiancé after a year & is in no mood for a romance with her sexy next door neighbor. The sexy hero is undaunted in his pursuit of her & they have a VERY HEA!

No issues. Got book in time.

This was a fairly intense read with Jonas pushing Sara with the strong physical attraction right from the first meeting. Sara is still grieving the loss of her fiance 18 months ago in an accident that crippled her brother and killed her sister-in-law.

She has made Sam, and his daughter Carly, the centre of her world while clinging to her memories of Rick.

Jonas confronts her immediately because she feels the strong attraction but she fights it, using her memories of Rick as a barrier to admitting she could be falling in love. She is afraid of loving and losing again.

*minor spoilers ahead* I would have liked this book a lot better if it hadn't been for the abortion motif. First Sam's new love interest had a tragic experience in the past. Our heroine not only doesn't learn from that but immediately she finds out she's pregnant she is in so much denial she dances off immediately to an abortion clinic.

Needless to say I finished the book which I wouldn't have if she had made a different decision. I know women in real life have to make these decisions but I want no part of them in my romance reading.

The ending was pretty satisfying if the whole clinic thing hadn't left a sour taste in my mouth.

I'm a Penny Jordan Harlequin Presents fan (I have most of them & am trying to collect ALL of them!) but, this one is my favorite! It's also one of my HP all-time favorites.
Sara is likeable & vulnerable, even though she isn't as strong a female lead as I usually prefer, & Jonas is one of Penny Jordan's (and Harlequin's) most appealing male leads.
The story has a slight twist from the usual plot developments, and that makes it even better. The chemistry between Sara & Jonas just seemed to jump off the pages and it was so real that I have read this book several times, and I have a lot of books!
If you haven't read Penny Jordan's Harlequin Presents books yet, start with this one, because it's a gem.

I bought this book when it first came out in 1987. I had never heard of Penny Jordan and I was just a teenager starting to read Harlequin romance novels. I have never read such a romantic book in my life. Jake is the sexiest guy and I would love to meet him! Sara (if I remember correctly) has moved in with her brother who is in a wheelchair and is mourning the death of her fiancee. She is living like she died too and will not open herself up to others. She meets Jake in the garden early one morning dressed in her nightgown and they exchange a few caustic words, then he proceeds to kiss her and other things. She rips away from him, denying that she felt anything. She is constantly telling herself that she has to live for the memory of her dead fiancee. Jake becomes a part of her life because his sister likes her brother and they are forced together. He forces her to admit that she is attracted to him and the story goes on. The characters are always written in great detail and she really develops them. The secondary characters are also well-developed. I recommend ordering this book if you enjoy Penny Jordan. One of her best Harlequins!
