Daisy Bloom has found a purpose again after her career as a dancer was cut short due to injury. Now caught up in renovating an old family home into a bed and breakfast, Daisy pours her heart into every project. But she likes to have all the projects going at once. Will she ever complete this huge job?
When her contractor Greg has to step away for knee replacement surgery, he sends his son in his stead. Daisy is determined not let organized, efficient Lance steal her joy—or cut her out of the work. If they can't work side by side, he can find something else to do.
In this opposites attract romance, Daisy and her free spirit and Lance and his steadiness must find a way to work together and also combat the outside forces that are coming against the B&B before it ever has a chance to open.
I had two quibbles with this book. Lance is a little bit of a jerk. He realizes this to a degree along the way and attempts to mend his habits, but there were plenty of things he did to Daisy that were hurtful that he never apologized for. Additionally, the story threads regarding the online reviews and the inspector did not arise from either the characters or the plot, making them seem less than believable.
I really love the concept of the Bloom Sisters series, and I like this author a lot. Can't wait to dig into the next book soon!
