With Open Arms — Sandra Kitt

Ordinary people weren't Grant Stockard's style

He'd proven that during the first altercation he had with Victoria Wescott in the backyard of her Reston, Virginia, home. Busy, important and very proud, her new neighbor was openly disdainful of Victoria, her herb garden and her boisterous ten-year-old twin daughters. But Grant's own daughter, Paige, had no such problem. An afternoon with the twins, a homemade rag doll and brownies fresh from the oven all spelled love to the immaculately dressed little girl, and she hesitantly set out to get it. Paige's daily visits were bound to be the cause of another confrontation--this time in the Wescott kitchen. And Victoria might have believed Grant's stiffly worded protest if she hadn't caught him sampling her brownie batter!
