This was an enjoyable quick read that I stayed up late into the night to finish. Our Hero, Jack (also called Jay and Jackson), is a home-builder coming off of a 9 year marriage that ended badly. Lacey, our heroine, is a nurse who's in the market for a new home and some hot lovin'.  As fate would have it, the two meet and sparks fly, but both are on the shy side and reluctant to get burned by the hot flames of love. They`re in agreement that some no strings attached sheet burning, toe curling sex is a perfect solution for them, but first things first, Lacey demands a no mixing business with pleasure clause in that sexy time contract.  That makes for a long 5 months for our duo, but when the last coat of paint is dry on the house, they have the kitchen counter firmly in their sights.  As it turns out, after the deed is done, our couple finds out a few very relevant facts about each other:  mainly that Jack is a man of too few words and Lacey is a woman who is looking to throw road blocks up to her happily ever after at every turn.  I found myself feeling frustrated with Lacey and the hugely mixed signals she repeatedly sent out to Jack.  She wants the house, but she wants Jack, she wants him to do her immediately after their first kiss in a truck, but she also wants a conflict free building of her home, she wants to know all about him, but refuses to spend time alone with him, and on and on it went.  And then there's Jack.  He assumes that Lacey has heard all about his marriage ending badly and casually drops a major emotional bombshell while his pants are still practically around his ankles and Lacey's butt print is barely dried on the new kitchen counter.  Eventually the two work things out, but it's a bumpy road for a while. The story could have benefited from some editing as it was a bit drawn out, birth control was never discussed or used and some more attention to details like those much-described green nylon lace panties..how in the world did the Love Hammer (perfect and large, of course) make it's way around or through them? This is a M/F monogamous HEA that has a threesome with Mr. Bubbles and the threat of a threesome with Mrs. Butterworth.
