Review: Not your typical romance novel
Rating: 5 out of 5

Although this book did have a romantic theme throughout, I'm not sure I would have categorized it as a romance novel.  I would say I consider this book to be more of a family drama with romance intertwined.  The main character is a foster mother to several children that have difficult family histories.  This book deals with them fitting into a new neighborhood and other's preconcieved notions.  In addition, the "hero" in the book is struggling with some very serious family history of his own.  I dont' want to give away the plot, but will say that although there is a romance going on the story to me has more to do with the forming of a family and dealing with life's circumstances.  I truly enjoyed this book and found it to be well written.  I think you would need to be in a more serious mood to pick this one up as there is a lot going on in the story.  I also wouldn't recommend this book for young adult readers.
