Opposites Attract
Widowed contractor Logan Burkett knows exactly what troublemaking teens need: discipline. A former rabble-rouser, Logan had his life turned around by firm guidance and hard work. But try telling that to Pippa Gallagher. The softhearted event planner runs a skate park ministry for troubled teens and thinks a place to be themselves is the answer. As he and Pippa work together renovating the space, they seem to disagree about everything. But when disaster strikes, Logan finds himself feeling very protective of the beautiful planner and surprised to discover they share one very special thing in common…love.
Second Time Around:
Widowers find that love can bloom again…
“I work with kids that aren’t always considered socially acceptable,” Pippa said.
She glanced at Logan and continued, “I’m wondering whether you thought those kids were up to no good based on how they looked.”
“Partly,” he said. “If I remember right, the rest of what I said was that they reminded me of myself at that age. I wasn’t exactly socially acceptable, either.”
Pippa nodded. “That’s why I’m so passionate about the skating outreach. These kids are outcasts, or at least they look like it, and they need a place to go where they’re off the streets.”
“I don’t think that would have worked for me, so I’m not sure I can agree with your method.”
She opened her mouth to argue and then decided taking a bite of pie was the better course of action. Obviously Logan’s opinions and hers were in direct opposition.
He met her gaze. Oh, but the man was handsome, even if he was completely wrong about the best way to win wayward souls to the Lord.
