Jonah Closky has no family other than his mother and he intends on keeping it that way, regardless of the fact that his mom has recently been reintroduced to her former husband and clan. It's a little too little and a lot too late for Jonah, but he would do anything for his mom. His promise a long time ago to grant her any wish just came back to bite him in the butt! She wants a family reunion of sorts, and he is the guest of honor. No such honor, especially after being deemed the "Dirty Developer" by the papers. He really doesn't care what they think of him, but that was just the icing on the cake. This isn't going to be a cakewalk for him or the Mitchells if he can help it. Daphne Larson, supplier of organic herbs and veggies to the Mitchells, loves the family as if it were her own. When the brazing, beautiful Jonah comes in claiming to be the long lost son who wants nothing to do with this family, she is surprised to find that he is the "Dirty Developer" as well. Although there is a lot of hurt, there is something else in those luscious eyes and ways that make her not believe a word or a thing about that title. She is bound to get the dirt on him. Meanwhile, will he get the scoop on her as well? WORTH FIGHTING FOR, one of Harlequin's Super Romance novels, is well worth the read. Sadly, last in the series, Molly O'Keefe has finished off the Mitchells of Riverview Inn with a bang. Just the right amount of romance, tension and feeling makes this a book worth reading more than once. Great job on a great series!

SUMMARY

This is one reunion Jonah Closky wants no part of. If not for his mother's wishes, he wouldn't even be meeting his estranged father and brothers. The real surprise about being at this inn, however, is Daphne Larson, an outspoken organic farmer who gives as good as she gets. Most remarkable of all, the smart, sassy single mother is making him yearn for things he doesn't even know he needs.

But taking their relationship further means coming to terms with his complicated feelings toward these men—his father and brothers. It means forgiving the past so he can build a future with Daphne…and finally have the family he's always wanted.
