Every Dog Has His Day by Jenn McKinlay

When the little girls spy their cat up on the neighbor's roof, they immediately rush the house to get it back.  Zach goes out to see what's going on and ends up getting involved in their lives...

Berkley and Net Galley allowed me to read this book for review (thank you).  It will be published January 2nd.

Their mother is hot on their heels reminding them they are not to go anywhere without checking in with her first.  Zach is attracted but he doesn't want any commitments.  That's the way it always starts, isn't it?

You have the kitten and a dog in the story but they don't play a large part.  The majority of the plot is watching the two main characters dancing around each other and trying not to fall in love.  It's hard to ignore him when your two children love him.  

Her ex-father-in-law provides some conflict in the story.  He wants to take the children away from her.  Zach isn't going to stand for that.  He doesn't tell her about the conversation and she says he's lying by omission.  It takes a while before the misunderstanding is ironed out.

This is a pleasant romance with a happy ending.  The sex was a bit more graphic than I like but it fit in with the story.  Two people who have spent their lives alone without a lot of love now have family, friends and a devoted love.  What more could you want?
