Recently I've acquired this taste for tourist-like stories so this book actually fit it perfectly. Not only is Owen from America and visiting London but the story is cute, sweet, sensual and I just about gobbled it up.While I was expecting a kind of sweet story based on the blurb and title, I wasn't expecting a lighthearted and fun one (at least not with this duo O.o). But that is what I got and I'm glad I did because it fit my mood perfectly.Owen is laid-back and down to earth but he has a pretty good, solid look on life. He knows what he wants and he's just stubborn enough to get it and not be walked all over. Malcolm is uptight, high-strung and a workaholic. He's not used to being baffled, confused or disobeyed but that's exactly what Owen does.I enjoyed this book very much. Not just because of the theme but also because, just like with any other Lane or Voinov book, I was able to actually feel the emotions of the characters. I liked how appropriately bewildered Malcolm was about Owen but also how Owen couldn't seem to resist Malcolm. But most of all I liked how easy, fun and lighthearted the story was. My only complaint is there was too much sex for my tastes.In all, this was definitely a keeper and one I know I'll be re-reading in the future. I do hope Lane and Voinov write more books together because I thought they worked quite well as a pair.
