This isn't a new idea but it is a well-told story. Poor girl, Hope falls in love with rich guy, Zack but doesn't know he's rich, he leads her to believe he is only the butler. Zack has been burned too many times by women who only want his money. Hope is poor but a wonderful caring person. She has been burned every time someone finds out about her past so she's skittish as well as a virgin. The dynamics between Zack and Hope are wild and entertaining. The other part of the story is a mystery. Hope's parents were killed in a car wreck and accused of embezelling church funds. Her sisters and brother were split up and put into foster care when their parents died. Apparently there is some kind of conspiracy in their home town to hide the truth. Of course, Zack is going to do everything in his power to find her siblings and uncover who framed and killed her parents.

When I started this book, I kept thinking I'd read it before. Now I know that I read book three in the series, which is why it was so familiar. Now I just have to get me hands on the second book [book:Almost Like Being in Love|358851] so I can continue the adventure.
