Will Hank and Maggie find happiness between the lines of their business relationship. You will have to read to find out.

I rarely read Contemporary Romance but this title intrigued and it was on sale as an audio book so I thought I would take a chance. And I am so glad I took the leap of faith. This story was so adorable. Maggie and Hank were meant to be together. Love hit them both over the head like a ton of bricks. It was a delight following these two as they figured out how to handle the feelings that developed virtually overnight. The small Vermont town that served as the back drop for this budding love was perfect. The confusion and small town drama the town added to the story was delightfully funny and campy. Seeing these two fall in love was a delight.

I really enjoyed this book. It had just enough of romance mixed with laughter and hi jinks to keep the pages turning and the reader interested in this crazy cast of characters. The romance though quick was still believable and pure. Now if you are someone who seek hot and spicy love scenes this book is not for you but I personally thought the scenes in this book perfect for the story Evanovich was weaving. They were hot enough to show the passion without taking over the story. I would definitely recommend this book to any contemporary romance fan.
