No soap opera cliche' has been left out of Coming Home, by Leslie Kelly.  To wit:1. Stunningly handsome, roguish bad boy gets beautiful, sweet, teen-aged virgin pregnant in small town Florida.2. Misunderstandings, lies and a snobbish mother keep our couple apart.  FOR ELEVEN YEARS!3. Years pass in which our couple separated by the above manipulation and subterfuge build separate lives, but still find themselves still in thrall with one another with a sudden meeting.4. More misunderstandings, reasonably hot sex, a big blow up, distrust on both sides, cool, but cooperative interactions over their now 10 year old son, a boat trip, revelations, reconciliation, marriage, another baby...FINI.If you like soap operas you will like this book, but be warned:  both major characters are so busy jumping to erroneous conclusions that you may want to throttle both of them before you finish.
