I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.Paige Owens is a business owner on Quaylo Island, also known as Butterfly Island. It is a small quaint community where she runs her own bookstore. She was born and raised on the island and likes things just as they are. Paige lives her life day to day reading her books and letting her imagination run wild. When Drake Dorsey saves her sign during a rain storm she thinks she hit the jack pot. What's a one night stand with a handsome, sexy man she'll never see again?Drake is a venture capitalist with an agenda. He is a numbers man. They make sense to him while most other things in life just make him feel stupid. He has a plan and lives by it minute to minute. He's not quite sure what to make of Paige when he first meets her but sees no reason why he shouldn't take her up on her offer.The more these two get to know about each other the more there attraction heats up. Even if they still see each other as combatants where Quaylo Island is considered.I liked Paige's quirkiness. She was sweet and caring but still had one heck of a backbone. She wasn't afraid to go after what she wanted. Drake was confusing. He seemed like an efficient businessman but as I learned more about him it seemed like he was still trying to find himself in other ways. He made numbers his entire life and forgot to actually live it.I was happy to see this wasn't an instant love match. They really had to work at it. It was a sweet romance story.
