Book Review By Jennifer Nieradka-Piperni
Babies and Badges by Laura Marie Altom

Before meeting Cassie Tremont, Sheriff Noah Wheeler couldn't even think the word marriage, but after assisting the young widower in delivering her twin babies in a car by the side of the road, marriage was all he could seem to think about. However, after a rough marriage and hard divorce and dating seventeen local women, who started a support group after having dated and dumped him, Noah thinks he's all wrong for Cassie. Still he can't help falling for her and thinking of her baby girls as his own.
After discovering her husband died while on a cruise with his mistress, Cassie has had little faith in men and even less in love and marriage. Still she can't help the romantic feelings she has toward the town sheriff who not only saved the life of her and her babies but also took them in and cared for them.
