"Fast paced funny and fun read!"
Cairo McKnight has a secret...one that has to be shared
and very soon...with her ex-husband Duncan Kincaid
even though Cario isn't sure she wants to see him
again. When Cairo sets off for the mountains of
Montana to find her adventure loving ex whom she'd
been married to for all of one day, and one night, she
sets in motion the adventure of a lifetime!!! When Cairo finds Duncan, he finds her...hanging from
a rope in a tunnel...stuck... and he must rescue her,
again. Something he'd done many times over the
years. Once Cairo partially explains her mission to
find him, he emphatically gives her a resounding NO to
her offer of a job leading a tour to Belize, in South
America. Once the conversation gets around to the
past , sparks fly and not just in words... Cairo knows
she's not forgotten or gotten over the love she has had
for Duncan for years. Her main objective is to unite him
with the son he knows nothing about, a very active and
very smart 4 year old. But Duncan's attitude toward
children isn't what she wants to hear and causes Cairo
to put off telling Duncan that he's a father. Duncan Kincaid has spent the past 5 years on one
expedition or another trying to forget the one woman
who could make his blood boil! His closest
companion lately has been an old ghost who talks
to him on a regular basis while trying to find the City of
Gold. Seeing Cairo again only rekindles the flame and
he tries very hard to make her go away even though he
might still love her. When he inadvertently discovers
Dylan...his son, whom he never knew existed, he's
angry and hurt and falls instantly in love with the boy
and wants to be the father he never knew he could be. This fast paced, fun filled read just kept me laughing
and crying and loving right along with Duncan and
Cairo as well as with the wonderful secondary
characters, Aunt Phoebe and Graham Kincaid and of
course a very friendly ghost.
Ms. Berg has certainly done it again with the wit and
style I've come to love. She's never disappointed me
and I can't wait for her next book as she is most
assuredly an auto buy author for me! If you haven't read
one of Patti Bergs books, this would be a wonderful
one to start with! It's fun, it's fast and it's totally
absorbing and fills in a five star romance hunger!!!
