My Rating: 3 out of 5

My Review:

OK first I have to say this was by no means my favorite Lisa Kleypas book.  It was too short and there wasn't any real substance to it.  I enjoyed meeting the Nolan Brothers and Holly and I enjoyed seeing Maggie and Mark get together but it was VERY predictable.  The writing itself was good and the plot perfectly paced and organized.  I hope the second in the series is a bit more.  Maybe more conflict or something to keep it more interesting.
