In Love Enough for All, Chase Grayson is still mourning the death of his
wife two years earlier. Part owner of a busy restaurant, he is raising
his three daughters alone. Chase and his daughters move to a new home
for a fresh start.
Bryn McAllyster lives
in the neighborhood that Chase moves into. Bryn divorced her husband,
Travis, after his adulterous affair broke apart their marriage. Bryn is
left with raising their son and daughter, although Travis sees them on
the weekend. Bryn is not looking for a long-term relationship with a man,
but she can't help but feel an immediate attraction to Chase.
Chase's daughter Marley
and Bryn's daughter Justine strike up a close friendship shortly after
Chase and his girls move into the neighborhood. As a result, Chase and
Bryn talk regularly and see each other on a regular basis. A strong friendship
develops between them and even stronger feelings appear, though both of
them are hesitant to act on their feelings, for fear of ruining their
friendship.
While feelings between
Chase and Bryn increase, their friendship grows even stronger as they
support each other through life's daily challenges. Chase's three daughters
each have different personalities and Marley especially feels threatened
by Chase bringing any woman into their life whatsoever. Bryn must deal
with her ex-husband and relationships in her past.
If you enjoy stories
about a budding relationship, this is the book for you. The author does
a very good job of describing the emotional development between Chase
and Bryn. There are many sexual scenes in the book, most centering on
the mounting sexual tension between Chase and Bryn as they decide where
to take their relationship. There is no surprise ending but there are
some twists and turns in the novel that keep the story interesting as
Chase and Bryn's relationship develops. This was a light, entertaining
read that was quite enjoyable.
