About the book
WAS SHE ONLY CHASING RAINBOWS? Baby-sitting for a nice couple in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains could be a drag, even though Alison liked her employers and their daughter. Something was definitely missing. Could it possibly be masculine attention? Then, in answer to her dreams, Kirk showed up. He fulfilled all her requirements - and then some. Alison fell like a ton of bricks. But did Kirk feel the same way? And would they ever be alone together so she could find out? Only Kirk knew, and he wasn't telling - yet! [text from book jacket]
