About this listen

Vanessa never wanted to be a contractor, but ever since her husband died, she has been trying to hold together his business. Her attempts are constantly hampered by sexy, charming Joe Coleman, another local contractor who wants nothing more than to buy her out. Now they're thrown together in a job at Eden Manor, a bed and breakfast and huge renovation job that can only be completed if they work together.

Vanessa is willing to be a professional and work with Joe if she has to. But she trusted him in the past and only got burned as a result, so she's never going to let down her guard with him again.

It would be a lot easier if he wasn't so irresistible—and if he didn't seem to want so much more from her than her business.

I enjoy a little slush and even a bit of throbbing groin but this book is too heavily dosed with improbable wish fulfilment even for me. Portrayal of relationships between children and family is very well done and, of course, endearing - but characterisation of many other players is shallow and unconvincing. Basic plot line around an existing fiance and her family is flimsy to the point of unbelievable and two dimensional portrayal of those characters makes me think the author doesn’t believe it either. Pity, because this author is obviously capable of good writing - it’s just that this book follows the formula a bit too unthinkingly. The sex scenes go on a bit too long and sometimes made me giggle at the odd inopportune phrase. The narrator, Angela Dawe, is excellent.
