Mac ends up falling head over heels in love at first sight, and while it takes Maddie just a bit longer to warm up, his charm and protective care win her over quickly. Maddie isn’t happy about it at first, but realizing she has few other options, she finally relents.

Feeling terrible that his carelessness caused her injuries, Mac steps up, insisting on taking over her duties at the hotel, as well as spending his nights at her apartment to help care for her nine-month-old son. As a single mother, she desperately needs her job as a maid at the McCarthy’s hotel, but after her spill, she can barely walk, much less do her work. He’s barely been back for a few minutes when he accidentally steps into the path of Maddie Chester’s bicycle, causing her to crash and end up badly hurt. Mac, the oldest of the McCarthy siblings, returns to Gansett for a much-needed sabbatical after pushing himself too hard in his business in Miami. The series features the McCarthy family who are the well-respected owners of a resort hotel and marina on the island.

I had high hopes going into reading this book and I’m happy to say that I wasn’t disappointed. I’ve heard many good things about her writing and had taken a book marketing class she taught a while back, which gave me a good feeling about her as well. Maid for Love is the first book of Marie Force’s Gansett Island series and the first book I’ve read by her.
