His Sweet Surprise by Angie Dicken

Reviewed by Sandra Merville Hart

Can a little girl reunite a family?

Piper Gray is glad to leave behind her marriage to a controlling husband. After the divorce, she wants to return to her hometown and raise her daughter. She lands a seasonal job at the Hudson’s apple farm, a place that has always seemed like home.

Lance Hudson has returned to his family’s business looking for a fresh start after his divorce. Piper’s presence there shocks him, for he had dated her years ago before leaving for college. She’s been away a long time. Only Sidney, his twin sister, has met Maelyn.  

Piper has a secret she’s keeping from everyone. She’ll do anything to keep Lance from meeting his daughter.

Readers learn early that Lance is Maelyn’s father. Neither he nor any of his family knows. After meeting him and his wonderful family, I must confess I was frustrated that she kept her sweet daughter from him.

The characters tugged at my heart, especially Lance and Maelyn. This book was a page-turner.
