Worth the Trouble by Jamie Beck
3.0
The second book in the St. James series features Cat, the supermodel sister. She's coming to the end of her career as a model and decides branding, using her name, to promote products is the way to go. She also receives some devastating news that makes her doubt settling down in a relationship and having a family. Meanwhile, Hank Mitchell, the carpenter and furniture-maker who works for Cat's brother, is still fascinated by her though she blew him off in the past.
I loved the first book but had some trouble with Cat and her attitude in that story. She's a little better here, but not by much. Hank was a sweetie and here he continues to be a guy any woman would love. Their relationship never seemed all that real to me. I never really got what they saw in the other that would lead to a long-term relationship. After a lot of angst between the two, the author never resolved that for me either. All of a sudden, everything is fine again without a lot of discussion about the issue that is the crux of Cat's problems.
Honestly, I'm more interested in Jackson's story, the next book. This was just okay for me.
