Waiting For You (McKinney/Walker Brothers, #2)

by Claudia Connor

[Lynn]

Zach Walker has been happy with his carefree life but recently felt something wasn't right. With his older brother happily married, he was beginning to think something was missing, yet despite having an endless stream of female admirers he never wanted to make a connection permanent, until he literally bumps into a nurse at the hospital. He's instantly smitten, but what now?

Nora Sellers doesn't have time for a relationship. With an exhausting job as an ER nurse and a ten-month-old son to care for, there aren't enough hours in the day to have a relationship too. Besides, she needs to fix up her house. When she crashes in firefighter, Zach Walker, she's instantly attracted but how can she find time for someone like him around her hectic life?

A definite feel-good vibe is present within this novel as the narrative flows beautifully. The protagonists are perfect for each other, with a mutual understanding of the commitment required for their chosen careers. Still, nothing worthwhile in life is easy and for Zach, who has always kept everything in his life temporary and Nora, who from an early age learned the only person to rely on was yourself; changing mindset to form a loving, supportive relationship isn't something easily achieved. Life proves them both wrong and results in a satisfying happy ever after.

Anyone who has read any of Ms Connor's books will appreciate the details she adds to her current stories to include updates and titbits of gossip about characters which have already featured in books of their own. With the inclusion of the McKinney and now the Walker clan there's always plenty of uplifting and engaging details. However, this, like the other novels are standalone so this author's novels are enjoyable for any reader who loves a heart-warming romance.
