fun book!!
Cut off from the family fortune so that she can experience life in the "real world," socialite Robin Lear is forced out of her cushy job at her father's company. Facing the challenges of life without wealth, the formerly pampered Robin must take the only job she can find--as an assistant to her former, and rather dislikable, boyfriend. Still, her life takes a turn for the better when she meets a sexy contractor named Jake Manning. This is the first book in trilogy of contemporary romance novels "loosely based" on KING LEAR.
First of the Lear sisters series. Dad tries to make his daughters learn the hard facts about life. Robin has to learn to sink or swim. Jake will definately be there to life guard her through the troubled waters.
Good storyline, likeable characters. I enjoyed this one.
This book is a great beach read. It's a very lighthearted book. It was quick and easy to read and I finished it in 1 day.
