Vivvy is a scout. It is her job to find potential hit reality shows, and she is in a slump. She figures if she has a couple more failures she can kiss her job good-bye. Nate Harrington has made his family's business of customizing airplanes a success, and he is afraid that a reality show will let the family skeletons out of the closet. Despite strong attractions on both sides Nate and Vivvy are locked in a battle of wills, both determined to get what they want.I really liked both of the lead characters. Nate is a hometown guy, happy to be doing what he loves. He is gorgeous, sexy, and for the most part easy going. Vivvy is L.A. all the way. She is beautiful, polished, and a bit unattainable in the sense she keeps her guard up to protect herself. These two really don't have a thing in common except for a lot of family dysfunction, but they have great chemistry.Helm did a very nice job with this opposites attract love story. The strength in her writing is her ability to make you feel the emotions of her characters. I like how she showed the vulnerable side to the all business Livvy. Although Nate carries his family on his shoulders, she was able to show a softer side of him that was appealing. She keeps the story interesting with plenty of passion and conflict.The story isn't extremely fast paced, and the sex isn't super steamy, but it is a wonderful contemporary love story. I enjoyed curling up with this read, and I look forward to seeing more from Helm.**Reviewed by Teresa D. for ThatsErotica.com**
