Honeymoon That Wasn’t by Debbi Rawlins

For Dakota Shea, the best honeymoons are ones without the newlyweds. When Dakota’s newly married sister decides to go on a cruse, Dakota ends up with a ticket to Hawaii. Little did she know that her sister also slipped a ticket to the second hunkiest guy at the wedding, Tony San Angelo. Unfortunately for the couple, the honeymoon didn’t last. When they returned to Manhattan, Dakota resumed her demanding job as a lawyer, forcing Tony to take on a legal challenge of his own – to make Dakota his own.

Another good book in the Men To Do series, Debbi pitted an insanely busy lawyer against a hardworking blue collar construction worker. There’s a lot of tension between the hero and heroine – both sexual and otherwise. Debbi also introduced another couple, Dakota’s brother and a temporary worker at her office. It might have been nice to see more of this couple in the novel, but maybe Debbi will reveal their story in a future Men To Do book.

Bottom line: A pretty good book
