I really loved this third book in Ms Harper's Life Lessons series. It dealt with what happens when the relationship isn't new any more, you've moved in together and you're creating a family with children. So, basically, now it's the really hard work. Because, lets face it, finding someone to date and making it through the first year is hard, but committing to forever, raising kids, merging schedules and parenting is the really tough part of a family.I loved how Tony and Mac worked through the issues that cropped up and especially how they each were willing to make compromises so that it would work. Their parenting of Ben and Anna was great and they totally admitted they had no clue what they were doing! The kids have a lot of challenges facing them, also, and working through it takes time and patience. It's not that the four of them created the perfect family. It's that the family they're creating is perfect for them!As usual with this author there's a strong murder mystery plot with many twist, turns and subtle intricacies. It's a very exciting one and Mac is pretty much the Man with his hunches paying off! Of course, there's some serious drama with catching the killers but that makes it even more exciting.I'm now sad because I've finished this book and I have to wait for another installment. I'm not a very patient wait-er.......
