Ce commentaire est de: Babes in Arms (Paperback)
Obstetrician Heather Delaney has long dreamed of the day she could transform the beautiful Victorian mansion, one of the Glen's four premiere "season houses" into her combined living and working space. With tentative approval for rezoning, she has invested thousands in the building's restoration. Unfortunately, she also managed to offend the town mayor who, in a petty act of petulance and power, manages to swing the final vote against the rezoning. Since ex-fiancé and board member Griffin Cahill should have been present to help defend her, Heather has no patience when he approaches her to ask for help. When she eventually agrees, she does so only out of concern for the children.

Just before leaving for the town meeting, Griffin finds himself saddled with twin boys, age eight months, and no sitter. His sister-in-law was called away to aid her mother following surgery and his brother dropped off the children on his way to a London business meeting. Bachelor/playboy Griffin finds himself ill prepared for infant care. Certainly his collection of expensive glass and modern architecture is not conducive to infant safety. After three days of no sleep, he admits defeat, and asks ex-fiancée Megan for help. He does not expect himself to like caring for children and enjoy the routine he and Heather establish. Perhaps Playboy Cahill will learn the value of home and family before yet another career opportunity and beautiful bimbo catches his attention.

Author Kathleen O'Brien pens another delightful romance in the second of her Firefly Glen miniseries. O'Brien's has a gift for portraying the challenges and rewards of caring for young infants, creating comic humor in all the disasters and triumphs. One of the best scenes occurs early when the bimbo girl friend destroys the color-coding system and the twin boys become Stewbert-a blend of their two names. The hero's transformation from Playboy Cahill to substitute daddy likewise adds some intriguing moments, especially as the décor of his bachelor pad does not easily transform to a nursery. Heroine Heather Delaney makes a delightful counterbalance, underscoring his need of responsibility and her need a fun. A lovely, entertaining read, BABES IN ARMS comes highly recommended.
