Julia Wright lives in a quiet small town, where she’s finally happy with her life. But when bad boy Luke Maguire rides into town on his Harley, librarian Julia Wright can’t help but notice. Though the last thing Julia wants in her life is an irresponsible guy. The only reason Luke returned to his childhood town was because someone needed to run his father’s bar after his death, but the hot looking librarian offered him a challenge he just couldn’t resist. Julia’s life then goes bad to worse when her mother and bad-girl sister arrive in town along with all of their problems, leaving Julia no place to turn for comfort other than Luke. Now can Julia finally get past her fear of bad-boys or will she find herself running away yet again?
I loved the wacky cast characters in this book, each more interesting than the next. And Cathie manages to throw so many challenges at Julia that you’re sure she’ll never survive. But that’s the charm of this story. The humor is tightly woven into the characters, but occasionally it does seem over to be a bit over the top. Still, I found it funny and enjoyable and definitely worth the time to read.
Score: Very good
