Finally, Leisa’s plan for life is coming to fulfillment. She has found a fixer-upper to remodel into what she has visualized as her perfect home. A quite neutrally colored home with no clutter, no noise and, more specifically, no children.

Leisa believes that she has found the perfect habitat, and soon meets Jared, a man she believes she can spend the rest of her life with, a person who will love her and only her, someone that she will never have to share with anyone else.

Jared believes he has found the perfect woman. Leisa seems warm, loving and fun. Someone he can imagine spending the rest of his life and raising a family with.

Enter Robbie, Jared’s nephew, who has come to live with him for an uncertain amount of time. When Leisa meets Robbie, and learns that he may be moving in with Jared permanently, she halts her and Jared’s budding relationship. She is unwilling to only have a small amount of Jared’s love. She wants it all, a child will just take Jared’s time and affection away from her.

This is the first book I have read by Ms. James. She defiantly kept my attention and curiosity. I couldn’t wait to find our how Leisa and Jared would come together. Though I did find Leisa to be selfish, whiny and annoying, with her ‘poor pitiful me, nobody loves me just me’ attitude, I was still interested in how she could and would be changed by the end of the story. The scene where Leisa goes back to her mother’s was heartwarming, finally giving her an understanding of why her mother raised her in such a busy home. I found the part of the story when Jared was sick to be cheesy. All things considered, the story was a fair read.
