Harriet Knight's sister, Fliss, has protected her
throughout her life but Harriet is ready to step out on her
own and face her fears. Little did she know it would involve
climbing out of the ladies' bathroom window after a blind
date goes wrong, forcing her to end up at the emergency room
for an x-ray of her ankle. Meanwhile, Dr. Ethan Black is
unexpectedly stuck dog sitting his sister's dog, Madi, and
it's not going well. Harriet isn't used to dealing with
the clients as she's always let Fliss handle the people
side of things, sticking to walking the dogs. However, she
can't turn Ethan down because of Madi. Can Harriet and
Ethan find love despite their very different lifestyles and
personalities?
I love watching Harriet coming out of her shell! I was
initially a little worried about how I would react to
Harriet's book. While I've loved the Bark Rangers ever
since their introduction, Harriet has always been in the
shadows behind her feisty sister. The previous book, HOLIDAY IN
THE HAMPTONS, started to show Harriet emerging past her
shy exterior and she fully blossoms in MOONLIGHT OVER MANHATTAN.
And Ethan... his gruff exterior upfront hides a heart of
gold. His interactions with Susan and the rest of the trauma
team showcase a different side to him, one that helps the
reader overcome his lack of understanding of Madi's issues.
I have to admit, however, that I am secretly hoping Susan
gets her own book in the near future!
MOONLIGHT OVER MANHATTAN is the sixth book in the From
Manhattan with Love series but easily stands on its
own. I'm not sure why anyone would want to miss a single
installment, however, as Sarah Morgan's stories and
characters are pure magic! MOONLIGHT OVER MANHATTAN is yet
another stunning example of Sarah Morgan's talent as she
shows love in the most unexpected of circumstances.
She'll risk everything for her own Christmas miracle…
Determined to conquer a lifetime of shyness, Harriet Knight
challenges herself to do one thing a day in December that
scares her, including celebrating Christmas without her
family. But when dog walker Harriet meets her newest client,
exuberant spaniel Madi, she adds an extra challenge to her
list—dealing with Madi's temporary dog sitter, gruff doctor
Ethan Black, and their very unexpected chemistry.
Ethan thought he was used to chaos, until he met Madi—how
can one tiny dog cause such mayhem? To Ethan, the solution
is simple—he will pay Harriet to share his New York
apartment and provide twenty-four-hour care. But there's
nothing simple about how Harriet makes him feel.
Ethan's kisses make Harriet shine brighter than the stars
over moonlit Manhattan. But when his dog-sitting duties are
over and Harriet returns to her own home, will she dare to
take the biggest challenge of all—letting Ethan know he has
her heart for life, not just for Christmas?
