I admit it, the title and cover made me think this would be an old fashioned saccharine Harlequin romance with an idiotic heroine and a macho hero. Don’t judge a book by its cover.
Flynn is adorable! He’s a hotshot lawyer who loves his niece and nephew, he’s tough guy shrewd but blushes when the lady has a flirtatious moment with him, he’s a macho cabin builder in his spare time who likes to cook, he’s gorgeous and has a great sense of humor.
I wasn’t prepared for him or Ms. Seeger’s delightful snarkiness when she describes people and places in NY. As a native Brooklynite, I loved the personality she gave different parts of NY. I laughed when she described Long Island as the frumpy sister to Manhattan.
Constance was a heroine with a calm personality and a brain. She was almost a bit too emotionless as times, but I’ll take that over a foot stomper.
The book read like a precursor to a thriller. There was a story and it was more of a limelight hogger than the romance. The story was realistically portrayed with detail that made sense. That’s why the thriller like ending was a bit disappointing.
