| Sass Miller is in love with Jacob McConnally. Unfortunately, she knows he's not the sort of man to commit, and as the mother of two children, Sass needs a man in her life who is ready to be not only lover but father. So when Jacob asks Sass to marry him, she regretfully says no. With C.J. and Corrine waiting for her at home, Sass leaves Jacob and their weekend behind. It's time to put her focus squarely back on her children. Jacob isn't as willing to let Sass go however. He's never had a family, never really wanted one, but with Sass, he sees a happy future for himself. But there are lingering doubts. Is he really ready for immediate fatherhood? Can he convince Sass to take him back?
A Bit of Sass examines how one man comes to terms with his past in order to make a brighter future for himself, and for the people he is coming to love. Jacob has always enjoyed being footloose and fancy free, but with Sass, all he longs for is her love. His transformation from a man afraid of commitment to a man aching for love was swift but under the talented pen of author Sarah McCarty, very realistic because Jacob acknowledged his feelings and made the changes necessary to help him finally gain the family and love he had always longed for. It was pure hilarity watching Jacob learn to deal with C.J. and Corrine, but it was also touching and helped to move the plot along. Add to the humor the simmering heat between Jacob and Sass, and you have the perfect combination for an erotic romance that proves to be just as emotional as it is sensual.
