Oh man this book was boring with zero chemistry between h/H. I don't think this author or series are for me. H kidnaps h, then lets her go, she finds him again, rescues him and nurses him, helps him clear his name & HEA. The book was boring. He is a lawyer & she a realtor.

It is rare that I read Harlequin and even rarer still when I do it based on who the author is. But this was it. McKinney has made a fan out of me in the last year or so, just by virtue of her storytelling.
The story behind this book was well put together, maybe a little hokey, but as I read I realized that if I wanted to poke holes in stories, I could do it all day, but that's what fiction is about. It had the most important of all parts of a story - it kept me reading. It isn't a long story, it isn't very steamy, but the characters kept me interested and I love to read. What can I say. If a book is terrible, I'll DNF it, but this one, it lived up to my expectations.
HOWEVER, I blame the Harlequin editors and proofers for a lot of things in this book that I found irritating. There were no scene breaks in the book at all. In one sentence, you were in one place. And in the next paragraph, there were different people, and the location had changed. That is poor formatting and proofing. There were words I stumbled over in this book, just a couple, but even that couple would be too many. This is Harlequin. They've been in this business for years and should never have put out a book with a word misused or misspelled. I took a star off, especially for the formatting. It might not be the author's doing, but it says Harlequin on the front of that book, so they need to take the blame.
Overall, I found the book entertaining. It isn't going to win any awards, but it kept me interested from start to finish, and that's enough for me.
