From the New York Times bestselling author of It Happened One Wedding comes a novel about a man and a woman whose summer is about to get very, very steamy…Divorce lawyer Victoria Slade has seen enough unhappy endings to swear off marriage forever. That doesn't mean she's opposed to casual dating—just not with her cocky new neighbor, who is as gorgeous and tempting as he is off-limits. But once she agrees to take on his sister's case, she's as determined to win as ever—even if that means teaming up with Ford…Investigative journalist Ford Dixon is bent on finding the man who got his sister pregnant and left her high and dry. He's willing to partner with Victoria, despite the fact that the beautiful brunette gets under his skin like no other woman.

Still, the more time he spends with Victoria, the more he realizes that the one woman as skeptical about love as he is might be the only woman he could really fall for…

I looked at this book on my kindle puzzled. The little dot thingies at the bottom were all dark, which means I had made it to the end of the book. But for the life of me I could not remember a single thing about this book. I had to read the blurb and even then it took me a minute. And then I w...
This was a good romance novel. Like most romances, it was forgettable, but I enjoyed reading it while it lasted. The writing was clean, the dialog snappy and funny sometimes, and the plot formulaic. You know, like all romance novels: a young man meets a young woman. Both have trust issues (and who d...
