review 2: Typical Romance from Janet Dailey. :) This time involving a motherless little boy and widower dad in Tombstone, Arizona. The 3 meet when Jacquie decides spur of the moment to move (against her parents' wishes) to L.A. and after a visit with her best friend in Bisbee, AZ, becomes involved in wreck with the main male character Choya (& his 7 yr old son Robbie) in Tombstone. In a little unusual twist, there was a backstory regarding Choya's birth mom and also his first marriage that Janet Dailey could very easily have gone more indepth with, esp. the birth mom, and it would have added more to the book. Don't get me wrong, this book was good, vintage Janet Dailey. But I think she missed an opportunity here. Still love Janet Dailey, even after all these many (37!) years she's been one of my favorite authors! less
