A woman discovers what’s best for her son—and for her heart—in this classic story from #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts.

Hester Wallace’s neighbor, Mitch Dempsey, doesn’t have to try very hard to win over her nine-year-old son, Radley. Mitch is the creator of Radley’s favorite comic book superhero. But Hester is a different story…

Hester has never needed a man in her life except for her son. But as Mitch and Radley strike up a friendship, she starts to see her neighbor in a new light—caring, dependable, and downright sexy enough to turn her life around.
