Ellen Brittingham, a Harley-riding tomboy, isn't sure true love exists until she contracts to landscape the estate of the sophisticated widower next door, Adrian Sinclair. Adrian has it all--at least on the surface. He's engaged to the beautiful woman who helped him build a successful business and he'll soon have a mom for his troubled son Pete. Yet, from the moment Ellen rescues a stranded Adrian on her Harley, his well-ordered world turns upside down, cracking his thin facade of happiness and revealing the void of faith and love behind it. Even more, his son seems to have his own sights set on Ellen - as his new mom. As Ellen's friendship grows with Pete, she realizes that his father is about to marry the wrong woman for the right reasons. And despite her resolve to remain 'neighbors only' with the dad, the precocious boy works his way into Ellen's heart, drawing her and Adrian closer. Close enough for heartbreak, for Pete's sake! But how can her heart think that Adrian Sinclair is the one when he's engaged to a sophisticated beauty who is everything Ellen isn't? When Ellen's three best friends see she's been bitten by the love bug, they jump into action and submit her to a makeover that reveals the woman underneath her rough exterior and puts her in contention for Adrian's love. But Ellen must ask herself whether she's ready to risk the heart that she's always held close. Will Ellen be able to trust that God brought this family into her life for a reason? Or will her fear of getting hurt cause her to turn away from God's plan and her one true chance at love?<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Combines the perfect amount of romance with a touch of intrigue, as imperfect characters find their strength in God and each other. The setting is an exciting and fascinating part of the story."--Romantic Times BOOKclub<br><br>"The characters are dynamic, funny, and endearing .... Piper Cove's seaside setting is just as much a character as the people, and the pages of FOR PETE'S SAKE make for a top-notch reading escape. This book has more than earned a Perfect 10 award!"--Romance Reviews Today<br>
