You meet someone. You realize you enjoy her company. You want to be around her all the time. You romance her by doing nice things...then you fall in love.

Standard sweet romance, but I liked Mending Defects a lot more. It really just ends, leaving some threads unresolved. But, I'll likely reread it on a rainy day. ...more

Solid romance. Likeable characters. No drama, which was a bit of a relief and different from her other stories where there often was a forced conflict for the sake of conflict.

I hope she doen't milk every lesbian character in her Aspen series for a separate story.
