Jo was first introduced to us in the first book of this series, On Dublin Street, and in this book you go into it thinking she is this gold digging tramp. As this book goes on you learn more about her and find that she is far from being the gold digger we first thought. She is trapped taking care of her alcoholic mother and her little brother. She started dating men that had a stable high paying job when she was younger because of what they might be able to offer and the stability she has wanted for her brother.
When out at an art gallery with her current boyfriend she spots Cam, instantly they have this strong undeniable connection. He is a down on his luck graphic designer who is there to support his girlfriend, that just happens to be Jo's current boyfriend's ex. After cornering her outside and telling her just what he thinks of her, they go to blows with each other.
Slowly Cam starts to learn the truth behind everything that is Johanna Walker and likes her more that he could hate her and what he thought of her before goes out the window.
After ending things with their current relationships you end up with some overly steamy intimate moments through the book. I absolutely loved Down London Road and learning everything there was to learn about Jo. Being pulled in to the story and watching the journey as they find each other and deal with their past was a very moving and almost overwhelming experience. If you liked or love On Dublin Street then you will fall in love with Down London Road even more, and YES, there is moments with our favorite American girl, Jocelyn!
