| Nice Girl ★★★★ |
Realizing she needs to become a confidant, independent woman in order to succeed in her chosen career she decides to move from her small town in Massachusetts to New York City to work on this while she completes her graduate and doctorate degrees.
Once she has settled into her new place she needs to find a job and get to know her new neighborhood. She finds her favorite coffee house and stumbles upon a help wanted sign nearby. She is hired as the office manager for A&V Private Investigations on the spot. This is her perfect opportunity to work on her confidence, the company is owned by to dominant males; Anthony who “is sort of an exhibitionist” and Vinnie, “the largest man (she’d) ever seen up close” “he’s such a cold hearted bastard sometimes” and has “no respect at all for women”, he’s the type to use ‘em and lose ‘em. Vinnie poses the biggest challenge to Grace, can she work with this man on a daily bases and be strong? She’s not sure, he seems to bring out a side of her she never know the “damsel in distress”.
Over the months Grace learns about Vinnie’s childhood and what has made him into the man he is today. She also learns that she is falling for him. Vinnie has never had a relationship but he finds himself wanting more with Grace. The book takes us on through the roller-coaster ride of their relationship. Is he good enough for her? Can he change? Can she accept his past and the way he has treated women? The sexual tension woven through this story had me on edge to the last page. So many times these two would come close and then one of them would get scared and back off.
This is a well written story about love, patience and learning. The author has at least 3 other books planned for this series and I look forward to reading them. There were many small editing errors mistakes that some might miss. I give this book 4 stars and would highly recommend it to those who enjoy romance and erotic books.
