One Good Man

One Good Man
by Nona Raines
Rating: 4 of 5 stars

My Review:
Andie doesn't believe she's been dumped even though her fiance "needs some space", but she's definitely attracted to her father's new neighbor. She's a librarian and has always played it safe but after a phone call to her fiance confirms that he's moved on, she decides to let her bad girl out and seduce the neighbor.

After one hot encounter, neither is sure where to take things but they work out their misunderstandings and have a really great weekend together. But after the weekend is over, they have some difficult patches to get through before earning their HEA.

I would have loved to see this book be a bit longer and develop some of the interactions with other characters more. In the end, we don't know what happens with Andie's dad, there was this mention of a sex manual that they were going to "work their way through" but then no addition mention of the book, Matthew's brother was mostly a jerk through the whole book but at the very end had one redeeming moment (which made me feel so-so about reading the brother's book). I also found some of the sex scenes to be a bit more like watching a porn movie than romantic in nature. Not a bad thing, but just different than most of the other romance/erotica books I read.

I liked this book but I'm not sure if I'll read the next one in the series.
