Accidentally Yours

   Susan Mallery is a customer favorite in Baltimore County Libraries so I thought I would pick up a book and see what the buzz is about. Accidentally Yours was sitting on the shelf and was one of her newer romance novels so I picked it up. It was a quick easy read, but that doesn't me it was happy go lucky.
     On the contrary the book is about a woman, Kerri Sullivan, whose son has Gilliar's Disease and she tries her best to be Wonder Mom. I mean this literally, she has a costume and everything. She puts all of her energy into faith and believes that if she can convince her son that his mom is a super hero then he will believe he has super hero blood in him as well and that will help him fight off his illness.
     In a desperate attempt to acquire money for a research facility focusing on Gilliar's Disease she blackmails a billionaire, Nathan King. After blackmailing him she enters into an agreement where by she volunteers her time to attend charity events to create good publicity for Nathan so that the arrangement can be mutually beneficial. I'm sure I don't have to tell you what comes next because I mean it is a romance, but romance is never easy and Kerri feels like she has to focus all of her energy on her son Cody and that if she for one moment focuses on herself it will be at the expense of her sons health.
     The book is a race against the clock to get a cure before Cody dies and a cat and mouse game of love. It's not the typical romance because there are a couple of plot lines going on at the same time. The book is all about love, but not just that of a man and a woman, but the love of family as well.
