St. Anne's Day

Can a woman who has given up on true love find it with a man who fears it? Betrayed by love and out of a job, Anne Lyons is forced to accept a position as a private duty nurse for an elderly spitfire recovering from heart surgery. When she meets the woman’s handsome son, an instant attraction is ignited. The man may be the city’s most eligible bachelor, but his flirtatious, playboy ways remind her too much of her former lover. Gerry McMaster goes through lovers faster than a premenstrual woman goes through chocolates and makes no apologies for it. To escape the life that took his father’s and threatens his, he’s avoided love at all costs. Then he meets Anne, and suddenly he’s fighting feelings he’s run from for years. Peg McMaster has been praying to St. Anne, the patron saint of housewives, to find a suitable wife for her son before she dies, and she believes that Anne's arrival on the Feast of St. Anne, is the answer to her prayers. She puts her matchmaking skills to the test to bring these two together in this charming tale that readers have described as hilarious and heartwarming.
