This isn't my favorite Lucy Score book, but it was still pretty good.

I read the second book in this series of standalone books a while ago, and they certainly don't have to be read in order. Gannon is the star of one of one of those flip-your-house type shows, and Paige is the field producer. They are constantly at each other's throats until, one day, Gannon decides he wants more. Then, the "chase" begins.

The characters are all pretty likable (aside from the St. James family). They are built up well, and the banter is spot-on.

Drama, laughs, a little steam.

A perfect 4.25 star read.

Kings of Construction is a home rehab show a la Dream Home Makeover. They help people that are in need for various reasons and make their homes dreams come true. One family has a daughter with cancer, one family has a homeless shelter, etc.

Paige is the field producer who is overqualifed and underappreciated by the company that owns the show. Paige dreams of being a producer. Specifically of producing a show about the hardships of women in the film industry.

Gannon is one of the primary people on the show along with his twin sister Cat. Gannon finds himself in love with Paige. Paige cannot be bothered with a relationship that she worries will come between her dreams.

As the corporation that owns the show does their best to exploit any relationship Gannon and Paige might have, Paige is trying to deny that anything is happening between them at all.
