Dawson is not sure he is ready for that.
Christina's Thoughts:
The Harlequin Special Edition line is
one of my favorite lines from that publisher. Recently I have been
disappointed with some of the stories they have come out with, so I
was a glad to see that this one meet their normal standards. Both
Mikala and Dawson were likeable characters with real emotions and
flaws. The author hinted at their shared past without overburdening
the reader with back story.
Overall opinion
I enjoyed this book. It was what I
would call a sweet contemporary romance. It contained the right
amount of emotion and physical interaction without making me feel
uncomfortable, but at the same time it was believable. The author
did a very good job of developing her characters and the plot of the
story while at the same time introducing us to characters she is
planning to use in another book.
Overall I would recommend this book to
readers who are looking for a sweet romance. If you enjoy erotic
romance or suspense romance, this is not the book for you.
