Real Men Don't Break Hearts (Real Men)

by Coleen Kwan

[Cocktails and Books]

Ally Griffin was the girl that was jilted at the alter and left to live with an entire town who feel sorry for her and think she is still broken hearted over her ex-fiance, Seth. Everything changes when ex-resident bad boy, Nate Hardy, comes back to town hoping to get a fresh start after leaving his high power finance job. What Ally and Nate learn, after their first meeting, is there is a fine line between love and hate and that they might be the side they least expected with each other.


This was one of those sweet romance stories that leaves you with a smile on your face when you get to the last page. Ally and Nate may not burn up the pages with their chemistry (since most of that happens "off the page"), the author does a great job of conveying their feelings for each other while still keeping the story sweet. It wasn't overly hot or emotionally challenging when reading it, but it was fun and entertaining and an absolutely perfect way to spend a few hours.
