Publisher's Summary

Sadie Hill has a lot going on.

New job, twin boys, deadbeat ex, and a mother from hell. Her life is chaos, and no matter how hard she holds on, every plan she makes flies straight out of her grasp.

The last thing she needs is for her devastatingly hot co-worker to become her new neighbor. A distraction like Barrett does not fit into her precarious plans for the future.

Barrett Monroe has got it going on.

His wicked ex-wife is nothing but a memory, his daughter is back home where she belongs, and he loves his job. His control-freak ways have paid off, and he can finally relax into his perfectly scheduled life—alone, just how he wants it. The last thing he needs is an irresistible single mom and her adorable kids to move in next door.

Sadie was hard enough to stay away from when she was just his coworker. But one night spent stranded in a snowstorm together finds these two sneaking around, sharing stolen kisses, and losing their hearts.

Will they give into the flying sparks between them? Or drive each other crazy fighting their feelings instead?

Architecture and Artistry is a full-length contemporary romance and can be enjoyed as a stand-alone. Book 11 in the Green Valley Library series, Green Valley Chronicles, Penny Reid Book Universe.

Overly saccharine sweet and too much perfection

Found this one hard to finish. Took a few days of going back to it, but I could only handle an hour or two at a time - overly sickly sweet storyline where everyone is perfect and everything works out absolutely perfect for the main characters. Pretty much every character in the story is a "great person", with no imperfections and perfect manners at all times. Little to no struggles in the storyline, and the few that come up are pretty minor and of course, handled with perfect manners.

Main female character is the most beautiful woman in town, blonde, blue eyes, tall with a perfect body and D cups (yes, they make a point of pointing that out), she's sweet and kind, the perfect mother of sweet and perfect twins, she has amazing siblings and a perfect job which she is amazing at, etc, etc. Main male character is the same, extremely handsome, tall with a perfect muscular body, kind and sweet, an amazing father, has amazing siblings and wonderful parents, working in a successful family business in a job which he's great at, etc, etc. After a while, I found the constant repeated mention of how amazing and wonderful everyone was to become more than a little annoying.

If you like a story where the place, people and lives of all the characters are amazing and wonderful with little to no struggles and a guaranteed and pretty predictable "happily ever after" ending, then this is the story for you. I just found it too sickly sweet for me.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
