A Dad’s Second Chance

Widowed single dad Marc Delacroix doesn’t have time for surprises—especially one like Fiona Bryce. Finding out that she’s the biological aunt of his adopted daughter, Stella, is a big shock. While Fiona’s commitment to the little girl appears to be genuine, Marc wonders if he can truly trust her—or his own heart, which he vowed never to risk again. Fiona’s eager to connect with the sweet young niece she never knew she had, but Marc seems determined to keep her at arm’s length. Could Marc and Fiona’s shared love of Stella be the bond that transforms their fragile connection into a real family?

My thoughts: A MOM FOR HIS DAUGHTER is Ms. Gordon's most recent book. I finally obtained a copy, and enjoyed getting to know Marc and Fiona.  The story was sweet, set in the cold, snowy, New York winter, and involved winter activities such as sledding.  Stella, the daughter, seems a bit bossy, but she is three and some preschoolers are. Marc is a work-aholic, and Fiona is living out her baby sister's life--and death--in Stella. I was a bit surprised Marc's whole family took Fiona in as family, but it was sweet. It was more wife like than sister of the birthmom like.  I can't explain that real well.  

Anyway, an adorable wintery story for days that are too hot to handle (to cool you off) or to curl up with in front of a fire on a cold wintery day.  I enjoyed it. 

I was given a copy free. All opinions are my own.
