Oh my heck, oh my heck, oh MY HECK!  I really, really liked this story!  What did I like about it?  Well, Sawyer is super laid back, sexy, cocky and a horn dog.  Yes, these are all fairly normal things for romance heroes to be, but with Sawyer, it's just... more.  *laugh*  We met him & Grace in book one of this series, Fighting Temptation.  Sawyer has a thing for Grace from the minute he sees her (or, to hear him tell it, even before that).  But, he is of course a player, and so Grace shies away.They become friends, but ya know, friends who are attracted to each other & who really want more.  And it's looking like their sweet little friendship-to-romance story is going to slip in fairly easily.  And then, Grace says something she doesn't mean, exactly, Sawyer does something stupid, and hearts are pretty well ripped up.This part is very well written, doesn't annoy me because the author does a good job of setting it up & explaining what each character is thinking, and (my favorite) DOESN'T LAST FOREVER.  We get the Sawyer & Grace are working on a relationship & banding together to fight outside forces portion of the story for most of the book.  *swoons*I enjoyed the first book (enough to want to read this one right away after it, even tho it was 3AM when I finished FT), but I ADORED this one.  The things Grace has been through, how we get to know Sawyer's family, the friendships w/in their circle of friends... it all works very well together.And CHRISTMAS!  Christmas is at the end, and it is amazing, and it made me smile HUGE!  10++ stars for this story (even tho there is a LOT of sex bc Sawyer is a horn dog as mentioned LOL) and I will soon be getting the PB (happy dance) and it is going on my favorites/re-read shelf.  : )
