Eye of the Beholder

Second Chance at Love #262

by Kay Robbins (Pen Name), Kay Hooper (Original Author Name)

The last thing Tory Michaels expected when she answered tier doorbell that morning was a marriage proposal... especially from a man she'd never laid eyes on before. But within hours, Devon York has glided effortlessly into her life, bearing kittens and flowers, picnics and poetry-and the unexpected abruptly becomes the norm!

Magical, mischievous, and utterly masculine, Devon makes Tory's artistic fingers itch to commit him to canvas. But portraiture demands an intimacy she's frantic to avoid. Already his whimsically ruthless pursuit has set her alarm bells clanging, and she s beginning to wonder at what cost she s fallen prey to the charismatically kooky wife-hunter...

This is something different. Both H and h are intelligent and have knowledge about poetry, about literature, about history.

H is not a billionaire and has red hair. She has black hair. That’s a change from the stereotype blonde h. And this H makes breakfast, lunch and everything else because she hates cooking.

Their banter was amusing and it was sweet how he showered her with presents, with his attention, with his presence, with tons of marriage proposals. He couldn’t stay away from her.

She has been in a serious relationship with another man, she’s not a virgin, and all throughout the book I wondered why she was so scared to commit to this wonderful, determined H.

She came across in all those pages like a victim of domestic abuse or something like that, but she wasn’t. In the end that felt a bit silly.

My favorite book of all time. Sweet, silly paperback romance. Not the best book I've ever written, but I love the characters, the banter and how things end up.
