Review: Good Start for a Series

This book is well written and has engaging characters as well as a decent hook for the situation that leads to the romance. Her distrust of men and desperation to have a home, his loss of career, girlfriend and privacy, then him being a threat to her continuing in the house that was the closest thing she had to a home all combine to make for a good interplay of the main characters. The supporting characters also added a lot to the story as it takes place in a quirky island community. The thing I didn't care for were the long, graphic sex scenes and the confusion they lent to whether this awash love or just lust; they said love, but almost every interaction had much more to do with hormones rather than real bonding. A less disturbing, but still negative, aspect to the book was the extremity of mood shifts of the lead woman.  It often made her character to be petty and borderline insane. Still, it was a nice romance and promises to be the start of a goos series and a good career for Lyla Dune.
