A Candy Hearts Romance
Brenda Gayle
Released January 20th 2016
Wild Rose Press
Teacher Lori Tait has always wanted a family, but now
she's 40, she’s pretty much decided all the good men are taken. Instead, she
devotes herself to her students, particularly one little girl whose struggle
with math seems inconsistent with an otherwise brilliant and artistic mind.
Mark Wilder hadn’t planned to become a father, but when a
fling resulted in his daughter, Grace, he whole-heartedly embraced the role.
Raised in a family of boys, what does he know about women and girls? Once he
learns of Grace’s inability to comprehend basic math, he welcomes the role of
tutor as a way to connect with his daughter; the opportunity to spend time with
her sexy teacher is an added bonus.
When Lori cracks the mystery of Grace’s problem Mark’s
world is thrown into turmoil; he’s the last person who can help his daughter.
He pushes everyone away, confirming Lori’s theory about men. Grace, however,
has other plans. Using her new-found understanding of math, she sets out to
prove to her father and teacher that, together, they add up to the perfect
match.
My Review
It's a short romance but very well developed, the characters are well defined and the storyline is very intriguing.
Mark and Jade are Grace's parents and are separated when she was one year old. She is a very smart little girl, very gifted artistically but she is really a disaster in mathematics. Her teacher Lori Tait convenes her parents advising them to assign a tutor to help her fill her gaps. Jade considers unnecessary mathematics for an artist, Mark instead wants her daughter to have alternatives. The ideal solution is offered by Grace: she wants her teacher Lori to be her tutor. Her purpose is actually to unite her father with Lori. Will she succeed?
Lori is in her forties, is very sexy and charming but has not yet found the right man for her and has lost hope of finding him. She would like to become a mother and is almost thinking to artificial insemination. Mark is really awesome and a great father but a divorced man is not covered in her standards. Mark has made a huge mistake to marry Jade but has had a beautiful baby girl as a reward. He's very attracted to Lori but doesn't know if he is ready to have a relationship again. Grace is an adorable little girl, very cute and funny.
It 's really a fun read, perfect for a relaxing afternoon.

I've been a writer all my life but returned to my love of
fiction after more than 20 years in the world of corporate
communications--although some might argue there is plenty of opportunity for
fiction-writing there, too. I have a Master's degree in journalism and an
undergraduate degree in psychology. A fan of many genres, I am drawn to
contemporary romance and enjoy creating deeply emotional stories with elements
of mystery and suspense.
I live in eastern Ontario with my wonderful husband, two
fabulous children, a rescued cat, two Siberian Huskies, and assorted aquatic
wildlife.
Thank you for helping celebrate the release of my Valentine's novella, ME+YOU and for your lovely review. I am so glad you liked it.
