“Kait Nolan’s THOSE SWEET WORDS is a beautiful romance about love, life, and what it means to be family. Pru is every woman who’s ever struggled and sacrificed to do what’s best for her family, and Flynn is nothing short of a dreamboat. I laughed, I cried, and I can’t wait for the next Misfit Inn romance!” OFFICER’S EX-WIVES CLUB author PIPPA GRANT Pru Reynolds is the reliable sister, the one … sister, the one everybody depends on, so of course she’s the natural choice to adopt the foster child her late mother left behind–even if she’s got no one to help share the load. At thirty, becoming the mom of a teenager means big changes, and Pru’s ready to do whatever it takes to adopt Ari. But before she settles down she wants one thing for herself.
Enter Flynn Bohannon, the sinfully sexy Irish musician in town for her sister’s wedding. He’s led the kind of life Pru can hardly imagine. He’s no one’s idea of stability, but he’s the perfect guy for a crazy fun fling before her life changes. When Pru proposes a no-strings affair, Flynn’s all on board. But when unexpected complications endanger the adoption, the two find themselves in a phony engagement.
Now they have to convince a sharp-eyed, skeptical social worker, a teen who’s too smart for her own good, three dubious sisters, and one protective brother-in-law that Flynn’s willing to give up the gypsy life and settle down. But in convincing everyone that this relationship is real, will they convince each other as well?

Pru is the reliable one in the family. She holds the family together & is the least judgmental one. She’s the one expected to make the B & B profitable. She just never does anything for herself. That’s why it’s so out of character for her to be so attracted to Kennedy’s friend from Ireland. Can Pru keep her heart from getting involved?
Flynn & Kennedy were friends in Ireland & he was with her when she got the call about her mother. Since he’s in the US, he decides to work his gigs around checking on how she’s doing. He didn’t expect a shapely figure to literally fall on him from the rafters. He can’t take his eyes off Pru & is instantly attracted. When they are caught & Pru’s foster status is in danger, he steps in with a proposal to try to help her. Will they get caught or will it work? Will Flynn settle down?
Kait Nolan has written a series about 4 adopted girls & the family they made. I was drawn into the story immediately & couldn’t stop reading until the last page. The character of Pru was the dependable one. The one everyone relied on. So I loved that the author had her caught the one time she did the unexpected. When the mother dies, the girls band together to save the house & its legacy. Theses strong women each have their own heartbreaking stories about life before their foster mother adopted them & their life since. These women are heartbreaking & damaged with what they’ve gone through. They each have their own strengths & personalities that pull them together but also push them apart. They don’t think before they speak & so their words can hurt. However, their actions show their love the loudest. This was a great book!
