Lawyer rescues stranded sports agent, falls for her and protects her from her jealous rival. First off, she is amazing - brilliant, independent and feminine in the best way. He's also a strong MC, smart, suave with integrity. The chemistry is sizzling, and the attraction and entertaining banter was written very well. They're a great example of a power couple, and he's really protective of her. 

Their romance has a very sensual feel to it, and I really liked the way he courts her, it's so sweet and charming. And he really respects her independence and fierceness - in fact, it's a total turn on for him. She also shows her softer side to him and that was really endearing. I also liked that their initial conflict isn't dragged out for ages. His family is also a lot of fun. The suspense/action are great, it's a fun ride. And 😘 to their HEA!
