Struggling store owner
Julia Mendel and sports blogger Dave "from the Man Cave" Bernstein have
never gotten along, even though their daughters have been in the same
preschool class for three years. She sees him as the arrogant,
misogynist symbol of everything that's wrong with the men in her life.
He sees her as the odd, short-tempered PTA president, out to make his
life more difficult at every opportunity. When Dave and Julia find
themselves in competition for the same babysitter, a confrontation in
the carpool lane leads to an uneasy compromise: pool their resources to
share nanny services every-other Saturday night. After a while, Dave
finds himself sharing his dating stories across Julia's kitchen table.
On behalf of her special needs son, Julia reluctantly turns to Dave for
the masculine perspective she's been missing since her divorce. As the
Saturdays wear on, however, they may discover they have more in common
than car seats and custody schedules. Will there be a second chance at
love?
My Thoughts
A sweet and sassy romance all wrapped up into a fun chick lit read!
Divorced mom of 2, Julia, is trying to run a store that her father had left her and her
family and she isn't doing well. She she keep going or throw in the towel? Then there is Dave "from the Man Cave" who gives all sorts of manly opinions from football to dating. He was recently challenged to go on several dates and blog about them. He has booked Elizabeth, his go to sitter for several weeks in advance for every Saturday.
Julia needs to earn some extra cash and calls Elizabeth to book her for Saturdays so she can work weddings with her sister. There is only one problem, Dave booked them all! She begs and pleads for him to get a new sitter. They settle on sharing Elizabeth and helping each other out.
Along the way they develop a slight crush on each other - Julia more so than Dave. How will this all end? Will Julia capture Dave's heart? Will Dave fall in love with one of his challenge dates?
