Having descended from a long line of indomitable, good-
humored Scots, Hayden MacBride sees no reason to take his
own death lying down. In fact, he now spends his days
crashing funerals for the free food and insight into the
Great Beyond. Then he meets Rosamond, a nun playing hooky
from the Holy Orders. Hayden is smitten the instant her
heavy silver cross smacks him in the face when she leaps up
to do the wave at a ball game. Luckily, Rosamond has picked
the right person to teach her how to live . . . and to love—
because nobody does both better than Hayden MacBride.
However, Rosamond’s years in the convent have not prepared
her for the oddball characters of Hayden’s world. There’s
his ever-fretful, vigilant daughter, Diana, the “Dutchess
o’ the Sidelong Glance”; his sweet grandson Joey,
struggling to break free of his mother’s overprotective
embrace; Hayden’s bagpipe-blowing cronies; the Greyfriars
Gang; neighbor Bobbie Anne, a “working girl” full of good
advice and tender mercies; and Hank, the sexy architect
contemplating the priesthood—a big mistake in Hayden’s
book. For Hayden thinks that Hank should be married to his
daughter and raising Joey. And he has an elaborate plan to
make Hank see things his way. . . .
