Jigna Bhadeshiya jigna — This is an absolutely charming and remarkable book; mainstream fiction at its very best. At times, I would laugh out loud as I rapidly read the entire book at breakneck speed because with every page flip the story kept me engaged and wondering “what next?” Dylan is a likable single man; handsome and somewhat promiscuous, with a terrific job and a few staunch friends. He is foot-free and fancy-free with an aversion to, what he and his friends refer to as pre-fabs, a rather insulting and comical term for having a relationship with a person who already has a child or other dependent. Dylan is exceedingly good in his executive position in public relations. He can put the spin on any story with finesse. When an old ex-lover and her three-year-old daughter unexpectedly appear on his threshold late one night, Dylan’s world is shaken, as his eyes become open to new, exciting possibilities. However, when he suddenly becomes a pre-fab himself with sole custody of a winsome and precocious little girl-child, his world is changed forever. Dylan flounders in his new role occasionally, but, as the days become weeks, his desire to protect and love his new charge becomes more important to him than anything else in his life. Told with forthright style and candor but without much sentimentality, the narration ensnared my heart easily and put me fearlessly right there beside Dylan and little Spring, cheering them on and commiserating with them during times of trouble. This is a powerful story with a fabulous message of goodness and hope striving to survive and, yes, prosper even during times of forlorn sadness and despair that threatens to overwhelm even the strongest of psyches. Basically, though, it is a refreshing testament to the importance of love and the connections we make. Laurie-J reviewer for Night Owl Reviews

Olya Bro _lya_rodan — One star instead of zero, because I did finish the book, and that deserves something. The excerpt in the front was funny. The title was great. I thought I had found a nice new mystery series to share with my mystery-loving mother and grandmother. Not so. Putting aside issues with the prose and plot (kinda important for this genre), the heroine was horrible. Not an intentionally flawed type of horrible, just horrible. I thought it dredged up so many bad stereotypes of librarians . . . and single women . . . and women over forty . . . and well all women. Here's a brief list of traits that annoyed me about the protagonist: Incredibly judgmental, especially if you have an answering machine (she leaves messages for no one! how dare they expect her to answer after the beep!), use breath mints, or have briefly lived in California. If you fall under any of these categories you are deemed rude, unintelligent and/or morally suspect. Has food issues. Most of the novel, she is avoiding food, except for a pastry binge. This is not presented as a potential wrinkle to her character (or a reason why she's not thinking clearly and lacks energy - that's because she's now 42), but normal behavior. Aging is bad, because it puts you further out of the marriage market and women can only be fulfilled if they have a husband and children (this actually makes the happy ending a bit more sad). She doesn't seem to read books. She prides herself in being able to quote from ones she hasn't read (because apparently being a librarian is about the illusion of knowledge) and looks askance at people "misusing" books (okay, normally, I would support her "library books are not coasters" stance, but the patron was reading it - which is more than she does in the whole novel).
