Synopsis

Take a ride with New York Times bestselling author Brenda Novak in this touching story of family, forgiveness…and bad reputations.

Ten years ago, Harley Nelson got on his motorcycle and drove out of Portland, Oregon, leaving behind a bad reputation, a baby, and the woman responsible for both—Audra Worthington. Now Audra's dead, and their son, Brandon, is being raised by her perfect sister Lauren. But Harley is a changed man. He's a self-made success down in California, and he's finally ready to take responsible for the son he left behind.

Lauren is a good girl from a good family. She's a rule follower, and she knows that Harley Nelson is anything but. It feels like trouble has walked right back into town when he shows up at her door saying he wants to get to know his son. Regardless of how good he still looks in that leather jacket, he's still ten years too late, in her opinion.

It's clear that they both only want the best for Brandon—the only question is whether they can set aside their differences long enough for him to be in Brandon's life without it getting complicated.The more time they spend together, the more Lauren realizes that the man with the bad reputation isn't so bad afterall. When hidden truths of the past come to light, Lauren has to decide whether it's better to follow the rules, or follow her heart.

3 ½ stars. Not the best, but pretty good for a romance novel. I enjoyed it, but more interesting characters would have been better. Harley came from the wrong side of the tracks.
