review 1: 3.5 StarsI'm not generally a fan of Harlequin Presents books because I find them either too formulaic or completely unbelievable. And the titles. Could they be any worse? This one isn't as bad as some others but I'm glad I read this on a Kindle. It prevented my family from mocking me.This book surprised me, however, and I really enjoyed reading it. While it was a little formulaic (a requirement probably inherent to the publisher), I found it more believable than most. The writing was solid, there were no big secrets or prolonged misunderstandings. No villains. No secret baby. The romantic tension was well done and there was more heat than I thought was standard for HPs. The heroine, Cali, was overly repetitive with her internal dialogue about having to keep work her fo... morecus and not getting involved with the hero, Jake. Her character was wound so tight, though, that I suppose it made sense that she was also a little OCD in her thoughts. The hero was a tad too accomplished and successful. A heart surgeon would have sufficed.. did he really need to be a millionaire and real-estate tycoon? When he wasn't being stubbornly commitment-phobic, he had some great humor and self-awareness. Overall, the first half of the book was fantastic. It dragged a bit for the next 25% but picked back up at the end.
review 2: Wonderful Terrific read enjoyed the story so much,what i most liked was Cali did not compromise on her career,yes she wanted the love and relationship with Jake but not at the cost of her job for which she has been working so hard and after what that jerk Erik did its understandable and i was so glad she learned from her mistakes and did'nt compromised .Adored Jake so much,he is one caring humble strong moralistic man,he is one commitment phobic guy but what he went through after that its quiet understandable,but till today what ever casual dates and relations he had never did he hurt anyone,he cared about others feelingsOverall this is a wonderful heart warming story of two people who have been burned badly in past,they do not want any relation,they become good friends enjoy each others company, the passion,attraction and connection between them is very strong,as time passes by their friendship develops more deeply and slowly they fall in love,they both tried to deny and give many other names but LOVE you just cannot escape it,its such a powerful bond that ties two people forever and here also Jake-Cali were bonded for life After going their seperate ways both realise they just cannot live with each other,Jake confesses and accepts that he is in love and goes to Cali and we have a beautiful re-union and HEAGood readRecommend it less
