Okay, I gotta start this one off by saying that this book was recommended to me. Even if an ebook is only $0.99, I won't always buy it because it's hard to get me engaged. I'm easily entertained, but I love for books to engage me. I read the Kindle sample within ten minutes, and I bought the book within eleven minutes. So worth the ridiculously low price...and this is one of those books that I'd happily pay the normal mass market cost of $6.99.Solomon: Divorced female who is about to hit 30. She lives in SC and works on the insurance claims/non-nursing side of a private practice. She's low-key, kind of timid, and has been deemed medically barren. Ex-husband is a jerkass who hurt Solomon...leaving the sad, lonely, timid woman as our protagonist. She has a lovable roommate, a feisty cat, and family/friends that look out for her. The character's personality, though, is quite sarcastic, humorous, and adorable. Her internal commentary kept me grinning the whole way through the book.Sexy Men: There are two sexy men. Neither one seems right...or normal. One is a super charming knight in shining armor...who makes our lady's eyes sparkle. The other one is a dark, brooding male with a heart-breaking history...and he makes our Solomon's skin tingle. (There are other interesting and/or tantalizing men...but these are the main two.)NOW...if you go thinking this story as a classic "lonely-troubled-woman-meets-two-men-must-choose-as-they-battle-for-her-heart" type of romance, you are soooooooo wrong, my friend. There's this fantastical twist to the story that's gonna knock you AND Solomon right smack dab between the eyeballs!So, all in all, I was engaged throughout the whole story. I was endeared to the characters. I could NOT put this book down! And, I tried sooooooo hard to make it last. So. Hard. (Needless to say, resistance was futile.) I was so happy to read at the end of the author's note (after the book ended) that another book is on its way!!So buy the book? Duh, yes. Read it as soon as possible? Psh, of course - but only because that means you get to re-read even sooner!
