In Catherine Anderson's newest installment in the Harrigan family series, an unlikely couple is brought together under circumstances that defy all reason.... Tragedy has struck the Harrigans—Quincy's beloved sister-in-law Loni is gravely ill and nearing death. Quincy, like his brothers, feels helpless to save her, and the clock is ticking. Then, with perfect timing, a winsome red-haired woman named Ceara O'Ceallaigh mysteriously appears on Quincy's property and insists that Loni can be cured. Only Quincy, she says, as the sole remaining Harrigan bachelor, can make it happen—by marrying Ceara. To Quincy, Ceara is a charming and quite likely deranged spinner of dreams who can't prove she's telling the truth. But how can he pass up any attempt to restore Loni to health? Against all better judgment, he decides to marry Ceara. Maybe he's making the worst mistake of his life. Or maybe he's opening himself up to possibilities that defy explanation...and will send him on a miraculous journey toward enough love to last forever.In Catherine Anderson's newest installment in the Harrigan family series, an unlikely couple is brought together under circumstances that defy all reason....

Without doubt Anderson's finest book to date. "Perfect Timing" is a deeply emotional read, one that will pull the reader right in and not let go until they've pulled an all-nighter without realizing it. It has it all...tragedy, mystery, breathtaking romance, and the beautifully drawn characters that populate all of this stellar author's works.
As with all of Anderson's books, even the minor characters are portrayed with a clarity and warmth that make you feel you could live next door to them or meet them in the grocery store checkout line.
This is the final book in the Harrigan/Kendrick/Coulter series, and it's the place to catch up with characters in previous books that you've come to know and love. The family interaction is beautifully done, and Anderson's humor is readily apparent in the zingers she tosses in all through the book. "Perfect Timing" will have you laughing, crying, and gasping. At the end, the reader will have a sense of joy and rightness that is uplifting, and what more can one ask of a good read? Highly recommended as a 5 star review and a keeper.
