I loved this book. Most heroes in romance novels are handsome, young, and rich. And let’s face it. If we actually came across a guy like that, he’d already be attached to some young model. Simon isn’t that guy. He’s human and has some fairly typical human qualities. He’s 50, has a bit of a paunch, his business is failing, and his second ex-wife has already taken him for everything she can get. He decides to find his soul mate, but it is going to take some doing. Middy is a waitress who’s tired of free-loading boyfriends and wants to find someone mature enough to appreciate her. Watching them look past the forest and finally see each other makes for a great read. Reading this really made me think of how many relationships fail because of how people always seem to look for people who are just like them. Sometimes, people should look for someone who is their complete opposite and see how things may go! I really enjoyed reading this book!
