Even though it was a fun story, with a lot of funny situations, unfortunately I couldn't get into it. I do believe it was just not for me. I kept finding the characters annoying from the beginning till the end. I really couldn't find anything to make me like them, and I tried.

I recieved an Arc via BookSirens and am voluntarily leaving my review.

I normally find urban fantasy or PNR much more my style, but I decided to take a chance on an advanced readers copy; I am glad I did … it was a fun break from my normal fare.

The world is well built, characters are engaging and vivid and the story was realistic. Emily is desperately trying to make ends meet by using a motor scooter to deliver pizzas in the dead of winter in NYC. Lets face it, it was just a matter of time until an accident would occur and good ole’ Murphy's Law tells us it will happen at the worst possible time. As you can well imagine, it does and that one accident was the difference between paying bills or being homeless.

Even worse, the hot guy, Logan who steps out of the sports car not only saves the cat but also mostly ignores her. Despite his near dismissal of her; Emily's only saving grace is that she convinces him to take her home, too. She probably trips his Stray Alert radar …

Logan, for his part, does seem like a strong man, he is relatable and has family problems like everyone else. He also runs a Vet clinic and happens to need a receptionist. Like a lot of people he seems richer than he is but that just makes him very easy to relate to.

It is pure romance, clean and vanilla, it is a great weekend summer read and I giggled a bit. The plot was not an excuse for the romance but showed us how romance might happen.

Emily is delivering the last pizza of her shift at her crappy job and running late when she runs a red light, almost hits an suv, then crashes her scooter trying to avoid a stray cat. She imagines the hot suv driver being her superman coming to her rescue, but he's more concerned for the cat. After forcing this unwanted cat on her, she loses her apartment, her job, and her scooter. Feeling somewhat responsible, Logan offers her a receptionist job at his vet practice and the guest room in his apartment. Because of events in his past, he is determined not to become involved with her, but he can't seem to stay away.

This book was funny but I wish there'd been more awkward animal encounters. The description of her evil cat Demon was hilarious. And the chemistry between Logan and Emily is hot, hot, hot.
