3.0

Olivia Bennett is an English college professor and just bought an old house in Ithaca. She hires contractor Joss Bauer to do the work on her house. Olivia is attracted to Joss and vice versa but Joss doesn't like the fact that Olivia is a professor, she was burned by an academic in the past and still carries negative feelings about it.

I couldn't say that I liked both main characters because they each annoyed me during parts of the book at one point or another. However, I did like the supporting characters and would've liked to have read more about them.

As much as I didn't like the conflicts which arose within the book, I have to admit that it was quite realistic problems and arguments the couples would have.

I wanted to enjoy this book more than I did but was slightly disappointed, I enjoyed the first half of the book but thought it dragged in the latter half. Overall, a nice light read for an afternoon.

I was given a copy of this book from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
