A Place Called Home Silhouette Rom # 800

Meg Harper was a quiet shy school teacher, she joined the circus to become a clown, who is neither quiet or shy. There she met Dennis Warner, Dennis wanted to learn how to read. But his Gavin dad was leery, he is afraid she will find out his secret; Gavin can't read. So when Meg does find out, she quickly teaches him he is not stupid. Gavin had been raised by a nightclub singer, they went from city to city, and the few times Gavin does attend school, he makes the teachers think he is a difficult student. After his mother's death Gavin goes to live with his Aunt and Uncle, who think he hate the farm because he left as soon as he was able to. Unfortunately his behavior in school has left him unable to read, and his bad attitude in school had his teachers passing him, just to get him out of their class. Soon Gavin learns that Meg is more than a school teacher, she is the owner of his heart. The problem with this book is when Ms Patten wanted to have a close encounter between Meg and Gavin, Dennis disappears. Even when there is a severe thunderstorm and Dennis is out fishing with another circus performer no one seems concerned that this six-yr-older is out in the raging weather. I loved this book and unfortunately Ms Patten only wrote two books for now discontinued Silhouette Romance. For books just as good, look for Susan Fox, Eva Rutland, Betty Neels, Essie Summers, Helen Brooks and Diana Palmer.
