I loved, like GUSHED over, the first book in this series. But this one was a miss for me. The magic between Patrick and his niece & nephew just wasn't there. The "problem" they were trying to solve was thin. And the personality conflict between Patrick and his soon-to-be sister-in-law was kind of ridiculous. I've read nothing but praise on this book, so maybe it's going to be a hit for you.
