Books like Scout's honor by Diana Whitney


When a widowed father named Cruz Erickson discovers that his 11‑year‑old son’s new Scout leader is the unconventional Josie McGee—fiery-haired, outspoken, and wearing a red motorcycle helmet—he realizes his grocery-shelf routine is about to change. Josie, with her wild coppery curls and bold ideas about kids, believes she can inject fun into Cruz’s lonely life. The story follows the unlikely attraction that develops between the long‑compassionate uncle and the spirited leader, as Josie crafts a plan to win his affection while coping with her own challenges. The narrative explores themes of love, resilience, and unexpected companionship, set against the backdrop of a small-town community.
