The Families are Forever series by Marie Ferrarella ran for thirteen books between 1998 and 2000. True to its name, every story in the series centers on characters who are building or rebuilding a family. Second chances, surprise children, and holiday reunions are common threads, all wrapped in Ferrarella’s signature warm and fast-paced style.
Angus’s Lost Lady opens the series with a reunion romance, and books like Secondhand Dad and Partners in Parenthood explore what happens when adults with complicated pasts try to make a home together. The Daddy Trap and Her Second Chance Family put children at the center of the love story, while Code Name: Santa and Home For Christmas add seasonal warmth. The Comeback of Conn MacNeill closes things out with one last second-chance romance. These are comfort-read romances at their core, built around the idea that the right person can turn a house into a home.
