First Impressions by Nora Roberts
3.0
Random library find, of the "hmm, I recognise the name, don't think I've ever read anything by her" type. Turns out to be a romance, verging on porn in some scenes. Light, fluffy, not particularly successful as erotica, but then I think I'm not the target demographic. I like the protagonist, I found the world building/scene setting delightful (in particular, the references to antiques -- Yes, the protagonist is a war nut and an antiques expert. No, I didn't feel like the point of the story was to describe the scenery).
Other than that, I have little to say. Young woman moves back to her home town when her (great-) grandmother dies and leaves her the farm. Older man tries to escape the details of a busy life. Misunderstandings happen, mutual attraction happens and is denied; they fall in to bed together. Cue Christmas carols (it is billed as "A Christmas tale from the #1 New york Times bestselling author."). According to the blurb, this is a 'classic, hard to find' novel by this author. Meh.
