This was a quick and enjoyable romance. It's also the second book I've read recently with a theme of a tomboy heroine making her best friend from childhood see her in a new way, the other example being One Of The Guys by Kristan Higgins. In both of these case, while I really enjoyed the books, there was a little too little pay-off.

Since childhood – yes, I've been reading romances all my life – I've liked the ending best of all. I've always called it the “You love ME? I love YOU!” scene. (In erotica, it's more like “You're KINKY? I'm KINKY, too!”) When a book is based on the premise that a hero is oblivious to the heroine, when he figures it out I like a little extra of the couple in perfect sync.

The really good, awesome, neat part is I have a new author to enjoy!
