My review from GuiltyPleasuresbookreviews.comToday I'm thrilled to be reviewing a short story from Borough's Publishing group's new line of romance called, Lunchbox Romance - delicious short Romances consumable during the lunch hour.  I love, love the idea of this series of books will encompass a wide range of genres but all are short enough to be read during your lunch hour.  How cool is that?  Just FYI, I read Tamara Hoffa's Heart of a Soldier in about 30 minutes so these are totally "doable" during lunch!I really enjoyed this short story for numerous reasons.  First off the characters are approaching 40 and I love reading stories about more seasoned couples.  Secondly even though there was instant attraction they didn't jump into a sexual relationship, they got to know each other letting the attraction simmer which is always a good thing.  Lastly despite the length of this book (34 pages) I didn't feel cheated in any way, shape or form.  We learned a lot about the character's backgrounds, while there wasn't any real big conflict there was enough to make it interesting, and we know this couple is headed to a happily ever after.Heart of a Soldier is a great little romance perfect for a lunchtime treat or a coffee break.  It's a quick read with just enough steam to get you going but not enough you'll embarrass yourself by being overly heated.  With characters that many can identify with, the thrill of finding love "later" in life, some sweet sex, and a happily ever after; it's hard to resist Heart of a Soldier.  I love the idea of these short little mini books that you can read and enjoy in a short amount of time.  I'm looking forward to reading more from the Lunchbox series and Tamara Hoffa!
