This is a fun romance novel. It has a different twist to it. The blue collar guy is really a very wealthy guy looking for a woman to love who isn't in love with his money. Only the heroine doesn't know he is wealthy. A good beach novel.

Other than the constant flip-flopping back and forth by both main characters this is a fun read. The puppy rescue was enough to cause me to laugh out loud and was worth the predictable romance plot.

Fun light hearted romance
This book was pretty good, a typical contemporary romance with a couple of chuckles within.
Truman Fleming has spent enough days wearing a suit - and enough nights on the arm of silly socialites - to last a lifetime. After all, he has better things to do with his hands than push pencils and spend the family fortune, so he straps on a toolbelt and decided to live the simple life. But things definitely get complicated when he runs smack into lady lawyer Marcy Paglinowski. Together, they rescue a terrified puppy...and soon the sparks that fly ignite more than just their sympathy.
Marcy's strived hard to become a lawyer and the last thing she needs is a workin' man - even one like Truman - who's got biceps and triceps galore...and who certainly knows how to work with those hands. No, she's determined to find a reliable guy with a steady paycheck and a four door vehicle, and Truman, no matter how sexy he looks in tight, dusty jeans and a t-shirt, isn't for her...or is he?

Very funny in the great way that Elaine Fox writes. You want to keep reading this book.
Could not put this book down. sweet, cute, romance at it's best. When was the truth going to come out about the two? I could just see all of the events taking place in my mind. Great use of colorful language.
I am glad I picked this up because I forgot about Elaine Fox for a while. Great little romance where both parties are guilty and at fault for being too judgemental. I loved that both of them had valid arguments and are just a little bit right about each other.
On the negative side, I thought some of the scenes were too wordy and dragged on too much. But still a nice fluffy read.
