Worth Waiting For!

Last year, I fell in love with Maureen Child's Candellano clan and couldn't wait to return to Chandler to meet the Marconi sisters. I'm happy to report, And Then Came You (Sam's Story) was wonderful. From page one, I was laughing out loud at Child's quick and clever dialogue, then weeping at her poignant scenes between two people who are struggling to find their way back to love again. I can't wait for Book Two in this trilogy. Maureen Child's books are warm and wonderful and always leave me smiling. Don't miss this one.

Warm, witty and sexy

I can always count on Maureen Child to give me a great read. Her characters snag you by the heart strings and yank on them to the very last page. And this author tackles some delicate issues with witty prose and snappy dialogue. A wonderful curl-by-the-fire feel good read!

Fabulous!!

I love this book and can't wait for the others in the series. I love books where I laugh and cry and this one had me doing both. And it's sexy, which makes it all fun. My only complaint is Chandler isn't real and I can't go there for my vacation.

Truly Wonderful!

Another great story from author Maureen Child whose books never disappoint. It's witty, it's clever. It will touch your heartstrings. Thank you, Maureen Child, for bringing me so many hours of reading pleasure.

Heartwarming

Ah, sisters, I've always wished I had one! Maureen Child (I wonder if that's her real name, Child) writes about children like she knows them in her heart. And, in this book the Marconi family sticks together, as they say, like white on rice. This book makes you wish you liked coffee, had a family like the Marconi's, had a better understanding of why women give children up for adoption. It also brings home the point that families who work together, stay together which makes the fact that Sam gave up Emma not quite "real". But, it's a novel, so we aren't going to understand everything. All in all, it was a great, quick read and I gave it 5 stars!
