Interpretation In Favor Of Books Baby Love (Kendrick/Coulter/Harrigan #1)
Desperate and determined, Maggie Stanley grabs her small baby and runs into the snowy Idaho night. In her loneliest, blackest hour, she unexpectedly finds a warmth and comfort she has never known in the tender compassion of a handsome, down-and-out stranger. In Rafe Kendrick, Maggie recognizes a soul wounded like her own—though she knows she must never trust any man ever again.Rafe is more than he seems—an enigmatic man of secrets who could give Maggie the moon, had he not vowed to spend his life alone. But sometimes love's flames can transform a cold world into paradise—and a man who's lost nearly everything, a woman who's forgotten how to dream, and the helpless child who needs them both can become that most wondrous creation: a family.

Overall rating: 5 "Maggie girl" stars!Triggers:Cheating: (view spoiler)[ no (hide spoiler)]Love triangle: (view spoiler)[ no (hide spoiler)]Sex with om/ow: (view spoiler)[ no (hide spoiler)]HEA: (view spoiler)[ yes (hide spoiler)]My review:This was a very cute story! Light and sweet with very little drama. This is the story about second chances and new beginnings. Rafe thought his life was over when his wife and two beautiful children were taken from him in a tragic accident, but then he metI just don't even know what to say about this one. Other than to me it read like a Harlequin that went on about 200 pages too long. Or that cowboy types who call the heroine "honey" from their first meeting bug me. Or that a millionaire who drops everything to ride the rails for 2 years (WTF!!!) but reconciles with his family with ONE phone call doesn't ring true to me. And that the hero's favourite song is "The Way We Were"????? (Good Grief, WHEN WAS THIS BOOK WRITTEN? It actually reads to me
Wasn't what I was hoping it would be. Boo. :( There were one too many forced contrived things that made the story fall flat and got in the way of my enjoyment of it. There was nothing natural or realistic about this story. Call me cynical, but the idea of a grieving widower falling for a young woman in 2 days of meeting her just doesn't really work for me. Given the circumstances surrounding both characters it was incredibly hard to grasp the idea of these two or I should say Rafe falling so

Five words: Biggest. Waste. Of. Time. Ever. This book was boring and predictable Do yourself a favor and skip it!
This may have been the most compelling opening premise I've ever read. I cracked the book at like 2am last night (there's something wrong with me, I know this) planning to just read the first 2 or 3 pages to see if it was something I wanted to read next. Next thing you know, it was 3am. Face. Palm.Maggie Stanley is running scared. Literally. With a diaper bag and an infant she's running towards a rural Idaho train yard to hop on a boxcar, desperately trying to escape the man who viciously beat
DNFDNFThere was a time I used to devour anything by Catherine Anderson, some of her stuff I liked more than others, but overall I never thought there would be a day I will give one of her books one star (ok, I also immensely disliked, for similar reasons to this one, her 'Phantom Waltz'). The book starts interestingly and for about 50 pages it goes rather well, but then the heroine falls terribly ill, the hero's millionaire status is revealed and is all down hill, and way down hill, from there.
