The Knitter's Heartwish

<p><strong>Maureen Malone loves creating quirky handknitted character hats for the kids at the hospital where she volunteers. </strong>When delivering hats to the children's ward Reen's usually wearing one with long yarn braids herself. The kids giggle the nurses grin and some people pretend not to see her. If she can provide a healing dose of laughter looking silly doesn't bother Reen. She's convinced humor is as important as being proficient in calculus well-read in Shakespeare or appreciative of operas that leave her clueless.</p><p> </p><p>Slipping on an icy step Reen breaks her ankle and tailbone. Witnessing her fall friend and neighbor Professor Drake Slattery takes her to the hospital. With dark wavy hair and blue-gray eyes the handsome single dad is brilliant organized and a lover of classic literature and opera. Reen's polar opposite. </p><p> </p><p>Her lack of common sense and irrational habit of acting before thinking drive Drake mad. A bona fide packrat Reen fills her house with secondhand finds and countless skeins of yarn. He sometimes wonders if she has yarn for brains.</p><p> </p><p>That said Drake wouldn't change a thing about her. He's watched the beautiful blonde knit until her fingers bleed completing a new batch of imaginative hats for the ailing kids. There's no finer funnier kinder person than Maureen Malone. His twins love her. And so does he.</p><p> </p><p>Of course none of that matters because the one time he tried to kiss her Reen made it crystal clear she thinks of Drake like a brother.</p><p> </p><p><em>Heartwishes Book 4: Friends-to-lovers tender-hearted befuddled heroine irresistible hottie professor meddlesome friends and family abundant humor and a magical miraculous wish.
