My goal was to finish Challenge. I hit buy, cued it up and then went travelling. OMG...It has been a very long time since a book took me four days to read. Honestly, it wasn't my fault. I went to the Fictionally Yours, Melbourne book signing AND Hubby joined me to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. So, unfortunately, reading wasn't my priority.
Of all the books to choose, I should have picked a re-read or something. There is NOTHING worse than putting down a book that you're enjoying. Hanging out with fellow bloggers, readers and authors...OR...reading a book that will wait for me? Spending quality time with Hubby...OR...reading a book that will wait for me? You guessed it...the book waited for me.
I got there in the end and really enjoyed it. The characters were engaging, the storyline interesting and the connection between the characters jumped off the pages. It was refreshingly sweet that our sexy, sporty hero wasn't a douchewaffle. Yes, he was a wee bit arrogant and a touch sleazy, but funny enough, these were the characteristics the heroine was searching for.
I kind of get a kick out of a storyline when the hero cottons on before the heroine that it's more than a hookup. What follows is a man who can pull anyone getting frustrated when the one he wants puts him in her short-term, he couldn't really commit, category. Loved it!!
It took me longer than I wanted, but it was worth it in the end. I enjoyed Challenge and I can't for more Harris Brothers.
