This was really popular with many people, and I initially ignored it based on the cover. The cover did not say 'romance' to me at all. I saw enough people I trust say good things about it to give it a go. 

I enjoyed Knox and Naomi's meet-rude. I like how she gave as good as she got. I wasn't a fan of Knox running hot and cold for most of the book. I did like how Naomi worked on conquering the problems in front of her regardless of how worried she was about all the problems. I did enjoy watching them figure each other out. I also liked watching them gain Waylay's trust. I was not keen on how long it took Knox to come to terms with his baggage. He had so many people step in to help him see his way around his block. Overall, I liked the book.
