"With her signature charm and sense of humor, bestselling author Helena Hunting creates a novel about love, family, and second chances in Make a Wish. Ever have a defining life moment you wish you could do over? Harley Spark has one. The time she almost kissed the widowed father of the toddler she nannied for. It was so bad they moved across the state and she never saw them again. Fast forward seven years and she's totally over it. At least she thinks she is. Until Gavin Rhodes and his adorable now nine-year-old daughter, Peyton, reappear at a princess-themed birthday party hosted by Spark House, Harley's family's event hotel. Despite trying to avoid the awkwardness of the situation, she can't help but notice how unbearably sexy he looks in a tutu. Add to that a spontaneous hives breakout, and it's clear she's not even remotely over the mortification of her egregious error all those years ago. Except Gavin seems oblivious to her inner turmoil. So much so that he suggests they get together for lunch. For Peyton's sake, of course. It's the perfect opportunity to heal old wounds. Or it could just reopen them. This is one of those times Harley wishes she could see the future..."-- Provided by publisher.

Sparkle House submitted by pamhockey25 on June 27, 2023, 3:05pm This is book three in the Spark House trilogy, focusing on the youngest sister, Harley Spark. The story revolves around Harley and Gavin who met 9 years ago when Harley was nanny for Gavin's newborn baby, Peyton...which makes Peyton 9. I have 8-year-old grandkids and have to say that Harley doesn't act like a 9-year-old. (Or my grandkids are much more mature than she is). The book is fine, it's a quick read. Harley and Gavin have a lot of issues to work through, of course. Gavin lost his wife in childbirth and his mother-in-law became a stand-in mother for Peyton. Gavin is trying to reclaim his life and MIL just doesn't want to let go, which adds stress to his life and any relationship he tries to start.

Will try the other two submitted by MHZ on August 24, 2023, 6:34am This wasn’t great but it was a fine escape. I’ll check out the first two by this same author.
