The Twin Bargain

GIVEAWAY

CARTER, LISA
THE TWIN BARGAIN

A mutually beneficial temporary arrangement...but can they keep it strictly professional?

Nursing student Amber Fleming couldn't be more stunned when ex-marine Ethan Green makes an offer: he'll babysit her twin girls if she cares for his injured grandmother. Amber knows it's temporary. Ethan isn't one for roots -- or their hometown. But his steadfast caring has her wanting more than friendship. And with help from Amber's mischievous twins, can they risk becoming a forever family?

My Review:

Wit and humour blend with a firestorm of emotion which makes this a rollicking roller coaster of a read.

Sooooo much to love about this story! Like ErmaJean, GeorgeAnn and IdaLee -- the Double Name Club whose favourite civic duty is matchmaking. These grannies have spunk and they are not afraid to wield it. lol "Your generation does not have the market cornered on technology or intelligence. Don't forget, it was my generation that sent a man to the moon." (p 37-38)

And if you enjoy swooning over fictional boyfriends, you might want to make sure your fainting couch is primed and ready because..."Ethan Green really ought to come with warning labels." (p 62) Oh my, yesssss, she says fanning herself furiously, consider yourself warned. Charisma and charm and a wicked sense of humour and he has a soft spot for his granny! I'm melting by degrees here. And the scenes with Amber's twins -- be still my heart...I can't even....I feel faint.

Amber about tore my heart out and made me want to slap her silly sometimes. She's lost herself in past failures (not all of her own making) and she can't seem to get unstuck. And then her whole world is turned upside down when Ethan returns home. Her brother's best friend and her unrequited love.  He associates Truelove with broken endings, shattered dreams but the town is her haven in a storm. It's all kinds of complicated but readers needn't worry -- the matchmaking posse's got this.  :-)

And if all that isn't enough to send a reader like me into a state of biblio-phoria, the shout out to a favourite classic picture book about did me in! All round awesomesauce from start to finish.
