LaRynn spent summers in high school at her grandmother’s duplex home. Deacon’s grandmother rented the other half. The two grandparents fell in love and knocked the walls down to create one large unit. LaRynn and Deacon had a summer romance that ended badly, but are forced to work together after both grandmothers die and leave them the home. The house needs a lot of work, and LaRynn only has access to her trust if she gets married. Deacon knows about construction but has no money. They marry to be able to fix the place up for selling, and while fixing up the home, they deconstruct what went wrong during their past relationship. It was well written, and I’d read another book from this author. (8)
It was a cute read. Two magazine writers in conflict. Her children set up dates for her. She’s newly divorced with a tool of an ex. I didn’t feel the intense chemistry but I liked the banter. Both main characters felt a little cardboard to me. The book was nothing special but it was enjoyable. (7)
