Any Man of Mine: Will Love Me Unconditionally Baggage and All Right?

Autumn Haven is a successful wedding planner leading a structured, ordered life and doing just fine raising her son without her son’s father Sam LeClaire in her life. He tends to waltz in and out whenever he feels like it, leaving her emotionally exhausted, and trying to explain the missed visits to her son when Sam doesn’t show up. Autumn sees Sam LeClaire living his life like he plays the game of hockey for the Stanley Cup winning Seattle Chinooks – fast, loose and completely on his own terms.

They met in Las Vegas by chance and Sam is the only time Autumn left her list behind and went with her heart – a huge mistake she will never repeat. Autumn found herself after meeting Sam married to him, divorced from him and pregnant with his son as a result of their encounter. Autumn adores her son and has her brother to help keep her grounded but now that Sam appears to have had a moment of Zen and wants more involvement in his son’s life after 5 years with an objective to not be the man his father was will Autumn believe everything he is saying and let go of the grief he created from that time in Las Vegas? There may be physical hockey injuries for Sam but the emotional scars are still haunting Autumn all these years later and she is having trouble letting it go.

Autumn may run hot and cold but Sam like a furnace is and always turned on and fired up for great time. Their adventures together make them appear to be a family but is that the truth or just a myth that Autumn is making up for herself only to let the big hurt happen again?

When Rachel Gibson writes a book the reader knows before it even arrives at your door that you are going to love it. Ms. Gibson blends the reality of life with the romance in our hearts together and always makes you take a deep sigh of satisfaction when you are done with her book. Autumn and Sam are great characters in that they are shown as imperfect, holding on to some childhood pain and learning to trust one another after a less than perfect start to their relationship. Rachel Gibson takes you on a great ride and when it comes to and end the reader must decide if the couple’s flame is there forever or will it fizzle out after the heat of passion is exhausted?
