![]() ![]() ![]() The Bad - I felt like sometimes the dialogue (mostly on Holly's part) seemed a little awkward, where I found myself saying "Do people actually talk like that?" I also had trouble with the fact that the first few times Holly meets Nate she's really insecure and somewhat shy, as she was wondering why he wanted to spend time with her. Also, the sex scenes were very steamy, but they didn't take up the whole book like sometimes happens with romances. That definitely adds a few tense moments, especially when she suspects that he doesn't have his son's best interests in mind. The story overall was interesting in addition to finding herself smitten with Nate, Holly also has to deal with the beligerant and menacing parent of a sick child she is caring for. There were times she annoyed me with her insecurities when it came to Nate, but at the same time I could totally understand where she was coming from.Ģ) The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly: First, The Good - I enjoyed the characters and seeing their relationship develop. She was completely independent and obviously very smart. Holly was a pedatric surgeon I like that she was a successful, confident female lead. Nate was a really down-to-earth guy, despite the fact that he was a famous baseball player not stuck up at all and not especially full of himself. Plus, it actually does end up having some suspense elements to it that I wasn't expecting! Also, did you SEE that book cover?! The only word that comes to mind is H-O-T!ġ) Character Development: I was able to relate and connect with both of the main characters, Holly and Nate, but perhaps not as much as I would have liked. This book sounded like such a fun read I couldn't turn it down. Review: I confess, I don't usually read just straight romance books I prefer paranormal romance or romantic suspense.
