Love the enemies to lovers trope and the characters themselves were great. Wish there was more to the secondary plot with the building drama, seemed like all of that developed in the last few chapters of the book.

i liked this one better than the previous book. i think it was bc i tolerated both main characters equally well. cody was the best mmc of this whole series. in my perfect world he would’ve ended up with fmc from second book jack but abra was good too.

Best Laid Plans by Nora Roberts
Abra Red Wilson (she's got red hair) was in charge of the resort, her biggest project yet and she had to work the hours and put in the time to bring it to the end and under budget.
Cody Johnson, architect was an obstacle she couldn't wait to get through.
Love the process of a building going up, all the tiny details. Nothing was overlooked on her watch. She wants the project to move smoothly.
He's been there to help her even change her tire on the car although she can do it herself.
The beam almost hit her and although he grabbed her out of the way he and she were still terrified inside. Does someone there not want a female on the job?
Besides being a team professionally they now have to appear in a private manner, a company party. He shows up in a light cclored nice suit and with his tan it blows her away. She decides to fight by dressing to please him also
in her black snug fitting dress. He finds it hard to concentrate on him as she discusses movies with the millionaire Thornway.
He feels like he's in competition with the millionaire and he's 65. Cody just gives her the space she needs to get over the tiff.
They clash when it comes to what he wants and what she wants in the project.

Just an easy summer read. The fact that everyone smokes, and does so indoors is a constant reminder of the age of this book.

Well written, but I guess I wasn't in the right mood for a romance, so just found it OK. Typical NR series romanace. The ending was overdone IMO.
