Nick is a hero. Not because he is a Detective in the police department but because he is willing to donate his marrow to a little boy that he doesn’t even know. Well, maybe he doesn’t know them but there is a very good reason that his marrow is a match to this boy. I love this twist. Sure, I knew it was coming. It wasn’t a surprise but it was perfect. The fact that he ends up related to the boy only endears him to me even more. With all the drama, and oh was there drama, surrounding the fact that he is a long lost Harrison he never lets it get between the real reason that he is in New York.

Then he meets Amanda. Everything he thought he knew about love gets twisted around. She pushes, she pulls, and she retreats in reaction to his tough, alpha exterior. But she is perfect for him. If only they would both open their eyes are realize it. They both need to get over themselves and open their hearts to a love so perfect that it would be so sad to not accept it.

It Might Be You is a love story. There is romance, there is heat, there is love but it is also a family story. A story of finding a piece of yourself that you didn’t know was missing, a story of finding out the truth about yourself, and a story of opening your heart to love.

This is a story that is perfect with a mug of hot cocoa and cuddled under a warm blanket. ( )

It Might Be You by Jennifer Gracen
The Harrisons #5

Nick Martell is on the bone marrow registry list and is called in as a match for a young boy living in New York. Without a qualm he agrees to take time away from work in Miami and head up for more testing. Just before he leaves he finds out he is actually related to Myles…yes…his mother had an affair with the boy’s grandfather and now Nick has not only a cousin to save the life of BUT half-siblings and a family he didn’t even know existed. At first he is a bit overwhelmed and then when his half-siblings meet him they are, too.

One of Myles’s nurses is Amanda. She is a great nurse but she has a tendency to “turtle” any time things get tough, she gets afraid, is upset – yes – she hides or runs or gets angry or mouthy or defensive and Nick is usually on the receiving end. I liked them together EXCEPT Amanda rubbed me the wrong way a few times. That is not all there is to her, though, so when she finally comes to grips with the idea that she and Nick could have a future she manages to go for it.

What I liked:
* Nick – what a sweetheart
* Myles – a charming young man I really wanted to see healed
* The Harrison siblings – great people that pulled together and took Nick under their wings once they got over their surprise/shock
* Nick’s mother, the man she married that is his “true” father and his sisters

What I didn’t like:
* Charles Harrison II – the sperm donor – was a sh*t to his family…all of them…especially Pierce and Nick
* Amanda’s quick temper and ability to take something said by Nick that most would not be offended by and make Nick feel guilty then apologize

Thank you to NetGalley, Kensington Books – Zebra and Barclay Publicity for the ARC – This is my honest review.
