This was a very cute novella length book.  This was a quick and easy read that left me satisfied at the end.Destiny's last relationship ended very badly and it pushed her into a job that required more travel.  She even moved into her new condo, because her ex isn't good about accepting that their relationship is over.  It's been a year and she's been missing the feeling of being with a man.  Christian has watched his cousins find love and he realizes he's bored with his playboy ways.  They both turn to an online dating service that has a meet-and-greet sushi class.  The sparks fly between Christian and Destiny and they partner up in class.  They have a fantastic time together learning how to make sushi and decide they aren't ready for the date to be over.  While deciding what to do next, they figure out that the live in the same building.  Regardless of how she feels with Christian, Destiny is determined to keep Christian at an arm's length, but Christian is determined.The passion between Christian and Destiny is intense and Christian is a gentleman.  This latin hunk is very good at saving the day.  He's the guy we all wish would live in our building or be enrolled in an online dating service.  Christian cooks, is good with his hands and is an all around handy guy.  Destiny has to decide how much she is willing to trust Christian and her feelings.Grade:  A-/B+Review by: Holly[...]
