Grace Brooks is enjoying her life in Lucky Harbor. She was
stranded there on her way from New York to Seattle for a
banking job that fell through. But this small town is
starting to feel like home in spite of the fact that she
knows it's only until she finds a real job. She's
made friends and has money coming in from odd jobs, the most
unexpected of which is walking the out of control dog that
belongs to Dr. Josh Scott and his young son.
Josh is barely keeping it together. He's juggling shifts at
the ER, managing the medical practice he inherited from his
father, caring for his son and the wild rebellious sister
who was paralyzed in the accident that killed his parents,
and don't forget the dog in need of some serious obedience
training. What Grace lacks in dog walking skills she makes
up for in commitment, and well, she's smart, available, not
to mention beautiful. When Josh finds himself in need of a
nanny, he turns to Grace. Soon they are playing house, in
more ways than one. Can Grace find long lasting happiness
in a small town?
FOREVER AND A DAY will more than satisfy fans of the Lucky
Harbor series. The sixth book in the series brings back
familiar characters and gives us Grace's happily-ever-after.
I enjoyed Josh and Grace's story. They have a nice
chemistry and they challenge each other to make the hard
decisions about what is really important. Josh's sister
added a nice burst of energy to the story and created some
strong tension with the other characters. I hope we won't
have too long to wait until our next visit to Lucky Harbor.
Grace never thought she'd be starting her life over from
scratch. Losing everything has landed her in Lucky Harbor,
working as a dog walker for overwhelmed ER doctor Josh
Scott. But the day his nanny fails to show up, Grace goes
from caring for Josh's lovable mutt to caring for his
rambunctious son. Soon Grace is playing house with the sexy
single dad . . .
With so many people depending on him, Josh has no time for
anything outside of his clinic and family-until Grace
arrives in town. Now this brainy blonde is turning his life
inside out and giving a whole new meaning to the phrase
"good bedside manner." Josh and Grace don't know if what
they have can last. But in a town like Lucky Harbor, a
lifetime of love starts with just one day . . .
Excerpt
By noon, Josh wasn't even halfway through his day, and
he'd already been overloaded, overworked, and quite
possibly teetering on the edge of burnout. He could feel
it creeping in on him in unguarded moments, like now when
he was parking his car between his house and the beach to
deal with Grace Brooks.
He knew who she was. He'd seen her around. Blue eyes,
a quick smile, long, shiny blonde hair, and a willowy yet
curvy body that could drive a man right out of his mind if
he gave it too much thought.
As he walked across the sand towards the water, doing
his best not to give it any thought, he caught sight of her
in the water. She was facing the waves, her hands on her
head in a distraught pose. With a frown, he picked up the
pace, just as something dashed towards him in his
peripheral vision.
Something small.
Something evil.
Something named Tank. Josh scooped up the sand-covered
puppy and held it away from him. The pug wriggled
intently, running in air, trying to get closer to Josh.
Finally giving up, Tank refocused his attention on the
woman in the ocean.
"Oh, I see her," Josh said. "And what the hell have you
done now?"
