This is without question my favorite book of all time. I've read it so many times its beginning to fall apart yet I can't bear to replace it. There are so many elements to the story, romance (of course), having the strength to move beyond your past, the pain/blessings of seeing the world

great romance. Her characters are more than just fluff and this story has more grit to it than others I have listened to. I did find the narrators voice for Travis Danvers a little irritating but was able to cope. This brought me to tears a couple of times. Highly recommend!

Photographer Cat Cochran trusted once and was badly burned. Now she takes pictures and concentrates on January, when she'll finally be free from the financial obligations her family has saddled her with.

Millionaire ship designer Travis Danvers doesn't trust women. His relationships are strictly

business, whether they're negotiated for pleasure or financial gain. And when he meets Cat, he's expecting nothing less than her compliance with his usual program.

Lowell's created a lovely character in Cat. Travis is more than occasionally annoying, but setting that aside, the biggest hole in this story is Cat's family - they don't appear expect as a plot device, which is a bit unbelievable given the rest of the premise. That aside, a powerfully written story great for an afternoon curl-up.
