♥ My Big, Fat, Greek Wedding meets Virgin River♥

She won't let her heart be broken again. He'll do whatever it takes to protect twin baby girls. On the island of Aphrodite, they'll both have to trust if they're to receive the greatest gift of all.

Perfumer Liv Bailey's in Cyprus to claim custody of twin baby girls after her best friend died alone giving birth. The one thing standing between Liv and a fresh start in Brentwood Bay with the babies, is Markus Panos, the man Liv was forced to leave two years ago.

Markus has given up on love. When Liv left him suddenly in Paris, he vowed never to open himself up again. But when an old friend asked if she could name him as her twins' father, rather than leave them vulnerable to her violent partner, he couldn't say no.

Forced to live together while waiting for a custody decision, both Liv and Markus have to fight the powerful attraction that still exists between them.

A Family for Good is Book 6 in the Tall, Dark and Driven sweet, small-town contemporary romance series. If you like smoldering chemistry, witty banter, and big ensemble casts, then you'll fall for Barbara DeLeo's irresistible stories.

Review

If you're looking for a beautiful love story that brims with emotion, has the most gorgeous settings, secondary characters I adore (hello Petro!), you'll devour this book that tugs at all the feels. I highly recommend this wonderful romance. ~ 5 Stars Amazon



I love this book, A Family for Good. I don't normally like more than 4-6 books in a series but I am sure sad to see this one end.. ~ 5 Stars Amazon



You'll fall in love with Olivia and Markus! I love that tragedy brought them back together to raise Zoe and Phoebe. But when they both realized that the love for the girls means that they can no longer fight the rekindled love for each other its even sweeter! Highly recommend this series!. ~ 5 Stars Amazon




Yes, the last of the series is also the best in my opinion. Great storyline, believable, human yet fallible characters, and the HEA we all want. The backdrop of Cyprus is well depicted indicating Barbara's knowledge of the country. De Leo at her best.. ~ 5 Stars Amazon

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Barbara DeLeo’s first book, co-written with her best friend, was a story about beauty queens in space. She was eleven, and the sole, handwritten copy was lost years ago, much to everyone’s relief. It’s some small miracle that she kept the faith and is now living her dream of writing sparkling contemporary romance with unforgettable characters.

After completing degrees in Psychology and English then traveling the world, Barbara married her winemaker hero and had two sets of twins.

She still loves telling stories about finding love in all the wrong places, with not a beauty queen or spaceship in sight.

Barbara is the author of The Tall, Dark and Driven series and The Breaking Through series.

I'm so sad to see this series end, but wow, it ended on an amazing note. Liv and Markus reunite under tragic circumstances when their friend died leaving two gorgeous baby girls. Enter Liv who is determined to take the girls back to the US, while Markus wants them to stay in Cyprus. What starts is a delicious pull as old hurts rise, new desires bloom as they move into Markus's house awaiting the court decision. As they bond with Zoe and Phoebe, they start to fall for each other, and it was beautiful. My heart ached and soared as they both starting falling for each other while resisting each other. This is beautiful story that's heartfelt, sensual, a slow, smoldering burn that pulled me in and I only came up for air after reading the intro and first chapter of Bad Reputations, and I am HOOKED. I devoured the Tall, Dark and Drive series and cannot wait to sink into The Breakthrough Series.

If you're looking for a beautiful love story that brims with emotion, has the most gorgeous settings, secondary characters I adore (hello Petro!), you'll devour this book that tugs at all the feels. I highly recommend this wonderful romance.

Live was devastated to learn about the death of her best friend and the newborn twin baby girls she left behind. There were no living relatives so she immediately left for Greece to bring the girls back to her home town. But it was Marcus, the man she loved and left years ago who her friend called for help. He was there when they were born and has been taking care of them since and has no intention of letting them go. As they work together to take care of the babies Living works hard to deny the love she still has for Marcus while he tries to convince her they should be together. Live has abandonment issues that keep her from accepting the love Marcus has for her. Marcus total commitment to the babies care and well being is heartwarming. He is a totally swooned Dad. It's a beautiful story with a happy ending.

5.0 out of 5 stars Second Chance Romance Set in Nicosia, Cyprus
Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2022
This is the 6th book in the Tall, Dark and Driven series by Barbara DeLeo. Liv Barley and Markus Nicoliedies had been lovers. So often in relationships there is a lack of communication or just listening but not really hearing what is being said. That was the case with Liv and Markus. Liv had asked Markus to not take part in dangerous activities. She had tragically lost her parents and was put in a foster home at the age of 9 years old. She did not want to risk losing Markus and so she left him unexpectedly. Markus had been heart broken.

Fast forward two years later and they are brought back together because of twin baby girls, Phoebe and Zoe. The mother of the twins had been Polly who was Liv’s best friend. She died after giving birth to the twins. Polly had asked for help from Markus after leaving an abusive relationship and he had been with Polly when she had the babies and had been granted temporary custody when the babies had been left motherless.

Liv flies to Nicosia, Cyprus to take custody of the girls and take them back to Brentwood Bay, CA to live with her. Markus does not trust Liv as he feels she will abandon the girls as she did him. Child and Family services want to meet with Liv and Markus. The girls would stay with Markus and Liv could visit as often as she desired until the arrangements were final and custody was granted to the person appointed by the courts.

Markus suggests that Liv come and stay at his house to help out. They both have something to prove to each other. Markus wants the girls to always know that they are “loved and accepted, no matter what they do and to always know that someone, somewhere, loves them unconditionally”. (sigh...)
This story tugs at your heart as we see this couple come together to care for these precious girls. They surprise each other with the love, devotion and commitment that they share for these babies. The housekeeper, Petro, is the best. Great characters in this lovely story!

What a beautiful HEA story. I loved this second chance romance. I especially loved when Markus realized that the love he had for Liv previously hadn’t been real if he wasn’t listening to what she needed! Simply swoon worthy! I highly recommend this feel good book!
I received an advance review copy of this book for free and I am happy to leave a review voluntarily.

4.0 out of 5 stars Swoon-worthy, slow-burn second chance romance!
Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2021
Barbara DeLeo has steadily rose closer and closer to the top of my favorite authors list with every book in this series! If you are a fan of a slow-burn romance with loads of sexual and emotional tension, you’ll adore this heart-wrenching story.

Liv and Markus are their own worst enemies in this battle for love and they can’t seem to stop pushing each other away and breaking their own hearts in the process. Even though DeLeo is known for her exquisite HEA endings, I couldn’t help feeling anxious that these characters might miss out on the love of a lifetime. I was holding my breath during several pages just hoping they would work out their fears and give in to their electric chemistry. You can very nearly feel their connection physically jump off the pages into your own heart.

The only drawback to the entire book was the typos scattered throughout. A little bit of a cleanup in editing and this book would easily be 5 stars. The storyline progresses flawlessly and doesn’t lose momentum as it reaches the series conclusion. A powerful ending to a strong series. Well done!! I’m so sad it’s officially over, but will definitely be eagerly awaiting more books from this talented author!

5.0 out of 5 stars Once again, a great read
Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2022
Liv and Markus were in love and Liv walked away because she was scared of a getting phone call that might never happen. Fast forward a few years and she is thrown back into a life with him caring for the newborns her best friends passing left behind. Liv and Markus must learn to work together for the health and welfare of Phoebe and Zoe. As the love for the twin girls grows deeper, the new parents can't fight thier feelings for each other that never disappeared.  Can they make this new family work and find the love for each other that the world can see?

Barbara did it again with this book. Helping old lovers find each other and gain thier HEA is why she is such a great author.
