An okay story of a sexual encounter between a repressed writer of bodice ripper romances and the plumber that comes to unclog his pipes. For me, the story moved just a bit too quickly, and Stephen's transition from hostility to sex was a bit too abrupt for me. I found the characters, especially Stephen, to be a bit too stiff. The characters didn't seem to have any sort of connection or chemistry, or even anything in common. I usually like witty banter, but it seemed more like ranting and whining, and some sharp jabs rather than a pointed back and forth. The sex wasn't all that sexy to me, especially when I expected erotica. It seemed like a porn set up that never quite was porny enough for me, and I don't think the ending fit the story especially if you consider Dave's rather promiscuous character.
