Publisher Description
She has complete control…and he's determined to take it away
A librarian in the small town of Hood River, Natalie Clayton's world is very nearly perfect. After a turbulent childhood and her once-wild ways, life is now under control. But trouble has a way of turning up unexpectedly—especially in the tall, charismatically sexy form of Paddy Hurley….
And Paddy is the kind of trouble that Natalie has a taste for.
Even after years of the rock-and-roll lifestyle, Paddy never forgot the two wickedly hot weeks he once shared with Natalie. Now he wants more…even if it means tempting Natalie and her iron-grip control. But there's a fine line between well-behaved and misbehaved—and the only compromise is between the sheets!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
When rocker boy Paddy Hurley runs into his old flame Natalie Clayton at a coffee shop in his hometown, he's immediately intrigued, while she pretends not to know who he is. But when he starts showing up every morning to ask her out, she finally relents. Long on fluff and short on tension, this bloated romance from Dane (Unconditional) is a font of exposition following two exceptionally gorgeous, independently wealthy people who nonetheless are humble, hardworking, and down-to-earth as they meet, have copious sex, fall in love, and, after one brief road bump, live happily ever after. What the novel lacks in drama it makes up for in overly descriptive and repetitive passages, and the dialogue feels as if the characters are reading stiffly from cue cards. With absolutely nothing standing between the characters and their happy ending except for a mild spat, this contemporary is a real snooze.
Customer Reviews
A solid read
I don't know what crawled up the reviewer from Publisher's Weekly that caused his/her negativity. This was consistent with the Hood River series which doesn't seem to carry the "edginess" of Dane's Seattle series, but that's not a bad thing... just different. I liked both characters and connected to their struggles. My only complaint was that the depth of the soul searching was inconsistent; however, that might be a reflection of real life too.
