Never having been close to any of her family and especially not her mother, she's not willing to invest too much of her time into her childhood home. When a friend recommends a cleaning service to take care of the house, she accepts right away. Sarah Matamoros is a young woman, working for her mother's cleaning house business. She tries to balance her life around the job, taking care of her eight-year-old daughter Grace and finding enough time for her large Mexican family. When she meets the owner of her newest project, Emory Owen, she's at first taken aback by the aloof, all-business like behaviour of a daughter that has just lost her mother. As time passes, the two so very different women get to know and love each other. But is that enough to overcome the obstacles of two very different worlds? Having read Melissa Brayden's "Waiting in the Wings", which I really liked, I was curious whether she'd be a one-hit-wonder or if her second book would be equally as interesting. And it is. Her characters are well developed and especially the little girl was most definitely not a plot device - which in the books I've read is unfortunately quite often the case with children. I especially liked the way Emory developed new insights throughout the book. There were a few problems I didn't really get since simple communication could have solved them pretty easily but it didn't take away from my reading enjoyment. The book features interesting secondary characters in real worlds as well, with jobs, friendships, responsibilities and families. All in all I'd like to recommend this book to anyone that's interested to read a story that's - much like the author's other book "Waiting in the Wings" - not your formulistic lesbian romance.
