review 1: Pregnant Maya Alyssum comes to Wadeville, NC to take care of her nephew and manage her sister’s shop while she is in jail. Maya and a silent partner also open an after-school program called Impossible Dreams, which she hopes to expand to full-time. However, the school sits on land the mayor wants for a road to a proposed shopping center. Widower Axell Holm is indebted to the school and its unusual teacher because they have gotten his silent daughter to open up for the first time since her mother’s death. He decides to help the school and finds that the dirty politics effecting the school and shop are now being extended to his restaurant. Everyone in this book has issues and some plot devices are a little unbelievable, but I enjoyed it.
review 2: Cute romanc... moree about a young teacher with impossible dreams and the man who thought all his dreams were lost. Maya believes that every child should know they're loved. She grew up in foster care but remembers being loved. Now she's 8 months pregnant, fostering her sister's son (she's in prison) and living in a building the mayor wants condemned. Axell Holm hasn't dreamed since his wife died but when his daughter starts talking after two years of silence and it's all because of Maya, hope starts a slow blossom and he blooms despite himself. The bumper stickers at the start of each chapter were hilarious. Give Pizza Chants; Forget World Peace. Visualize using your turn signal; I'm not a complete idiot. Some parts are missing. I could go on. Delightful. less
