Mike Stark is a sexy Lieutenant in the Coast Guard. When
his ex-wife decides that she needs to rethink her life and
goes on vacation, she drops off his two daughters with him.
Mike has been an absent father due to his job and has no
idea what to really do. He decides to head to his best
friends house in Rescue Bay.
Diana Tuttle is the town veterinarian. She is also a single
mother to a troubled fifteen year old boy. When Diana runs
into Mike in town it is very awkward. It has been months
since the two shared a steamy night together. A night that
Mike walked away from leaving Diana with a note to explain.
Both are very surprised to find out they still have
feelings for each other. Can these two put the past behind
them and find a way back to each other?
THE SWEETHEART RULES is the second book in Shirley Jump's
Sweetheart Sisters series. Even though I didn't read
the first book in the series, I never felt like I was out of
the loop. With that being said, I truly enjoyed this book.
The characters are a delight. I love how each character
grows and learns form their mistakes. When the book first
started, I did not like Mike because he apparently walked
away from his children. I understand certain jobs can keep
you away a lot, but Mike never seemed to make an effort to
connect with the girls. All he did was send a check in the
mail. As the book progressed, I love how Mike connects with
the girls. The effort he makes to make this situation better
for them is sweet. I really like how hard Mike works to win
back Diana, also. THE SWEETHEART RULES is a sweet
contemporary romance about second chances. I highly
recommend THE SWEETHEART RULES by Shirley Jump.
The Sweetheart Sisters are ready to give some old-school
lessons in love Rescue Bay veterinarian Diana Tuttle is a
great single mom, but she has a harder time taking care of

when his ex-wife leaves their two small children on his
doorstep, he is forced to become a family man in a hurry.
His return to Rescue Bay, Florida and fatherhood isn't easy,
but reconnecting with Diana makes the challenge all the more
worthwhile. Except becoming the long-term lover she has in
mind may be one commitment too many
Luckily, when Diana's and Mike's pasts begin to threaten
their future, the Sweetheart Sisters have the perfect scheme
to make this second chance last a lifetime.
