"Another wonderful tale from Plenty, Australia and the Goodwin family"

For those of you who have been eagerly awaiting Mitch Goodwin's story, it is finally here. Bronwyn Jameson takes us back to Plenty, Australia and the Goodwin family that we have come to love.

After a scare at the mall, Mitch Goodwin has realized that the best place for his son to grow up is in the town of Plenty, surrounded by family and friends. And with the news that his former nanny, Emily, lives in Plenty again, he can be sure to keep his son safe. Emily used to be Joshua's nanny, but then she disappeared while Mitch was at his wife's funeral. He is pretty sure that her waking up in his bed one morning naked and him not remembering a thing does have something to do with it. Now Mitch is on a mission, he wants to know exactly what happened that night, and he NEEDS to have Emily as Joshua's nanny again.

The last thing that Emily Warner needs is to have Mitch Goodwin back in her life. With him and Joshua back in town, she is reminded of all the feelings she has for the pair and how much she longs for a family of her own. But when Emily loses her current job and the place she was supposed to live,plus the heart-stopping fear when Joshua was lost in the woods, has Emily agreeing to go back to work for Mitch. Now living with them again, she has to resist the sexual sparks coming from Mitch and the loveable charms of Joshua if she wants to avoid having her heart broken again. Will she be able to resist the charming duo and her desire to be a part of their family?

Once again Bronwyn Jameson has given us another amazing story about the Goodwin family. The story pulls you in from the very beginning, making you feel what the characters are feeling and not releasing you until the very last page. For those who have never read any of Ms. Jameson's works, you are in for a real treat. Once you read this book, you will want to read all of her books. You end up loving her characters through a plot that she weaves to perfection. A TEMPTING ENGAGEMENT has definitely earned its spot on my top ten list for this year.

Summary

It happened one night...

The last time he'd seen Emily Warner, she was crawling out of his bed, and then out of his life. Six months later, Mitch Goodwin luckily ran into lovely Emily and begged her to resume her job as his son's nanny. But he also had a question that had baffled him for far too long: what, exactly, happened that night?

Seeing Mitch and his little boy again reminded Emily how it felt to want what she couldn't have. But resisting the sexy single dad when it came to the welfare of his son was impossible. Now, as Emily tried to ignore thoughts of what could have — what should have — happened that night, there was only one solution: see if the fantasy lived up to the reality....
