Have you ever wished that your best friend would just stop meddling in your life? And then she does something that you really don't like that turns out to be amazing? That's what happened to the two people in this book. Sue and Graeme were planning to go on a weekend retreat with their best friends. But then they find out that their friends had no intention of coming at all. In fact, the two of them are completely on their own, in the middle of nowhere, in a romantic log cabin.This book is about two people who have never really given romance a try. They've never tried to make things work. But now, when they're stranded together for Valentine's Day they figure they just might as well have some fun. So it turns into an adventure between those two people who are trying to have some fun before they return to the real world. The only question is, what will they do once they get there? Will they let their relationship continue?I thought this book was pretty interesting actually. There wasn't a whole lot of story to it as the two knew each other previously and then decided to get into a sexy encounter. But the sex scenes were definitely detailed and definitely told the story of the passion that these two felt for each other. That passion just continue to grow as the weekend wears on and then they have to decide what they're going to do about it once this magical weekend is over. The one thing I wasn't sure about was the name they used. Sue was pretty average but Graeme seemed like a strange name to me.If you're one of those people that likes to see two opposites attract then this is something for you. You'd really like to see how Graeme and Sue initially try to fight their attraction to each other (which Sue's best friend was kind enough to spell out in the letter she left them) but how they finally just give in. There's nothing they can do about the way they feel and the way that they are attracted to one another. So if you like romance this is for you.For my friends that like romance this is something I would definitely tell them about. I'm sure they would definitely approve of this story and the interesting parts. A little more background would have made this perfect but it was definitely an interesting read. The sexy scenes were really good as I've come to expect from Sandra's books. It just would have been nice to have a little more common name and a little more story about these two and their past together.
