This was a light and frothy romantic comedy that threw in a little art. Fun.

Jane is an art gallery manager(?) at Dick Reese Gallery; Ian is a famous artist. They go on an international trip of an art fair and work together & fall in love, eventually.
Dick is actually an effin nightmare of a boss; Jack the ex is basically irrelevant; Jane’s friends (Katherine and Victor) really could have had more role in her character development.
It was really cute and a very fast read, but I did feel like so much more could have happened with the plot. The end felt kinda rushed, just to make them fall in love/ recognize their love for each other & just end of quitting Dick Reese LOL. Still a fun, lighthearted read!

I accept this book for what it is: light-hearted chick lit that takes place in a high-brow setting. Quick read, perfect pool book.

Our heroine works for a complete jack-ass of an art dealer, and starts off the book going through an unexpected and bad break-up with her boyfriend. This causes her to make a small error at work (which is perceived as the end of the world by her art dealer boss), so when her boss tells her she's going to be sent out of the office for five months to serve as gopher for their biggest artist client on a tour, she feels that it must be a punishment.
Pretty typical chick lit - light, mildly amusing, predictable as hell. I've seen better writing in this type of story and I've also seen worse. I was looking for something light and requiring zero brain power, and this filled that desire.

This book never really went anywhere for me. The whole big dramatic cliffhanger - the heroine gaining trust in the hero's authenticity seemed completely fabricated to me. I was waiting for something to happen until the very last page where the two main characters professed their love for each other and kissed. On a plane. Pointless. Complete waste of two days of reading...

Jane Laine has to travel around the world to figure out she's in love the the artist Ian Rhys-Fitzsimmons. I could have told you in the second chapter. Never judge a book by its title. =(
