Felicia has come to Fools Gold with some of her Military friends to help start up their new company. She was raised by strangers in Universities and longs to be seen as normal not just as a freakishly smart woman. She wants a husband, children and the stereotypical picket fence type lifestyle.

Gideon has never escaped his past. He moved to Fools Gold because it afforded him the privacy he needs to make it through the days. 4 years ago he had an unforgettable night with Felicia, running into her now stirs up all sorts of things he wishes he could ignore. But Felicia isnt easy to ignore, shes irresistible to him.

The Fools Gold series has been wonderful and this book was no exception. I love the town and its people and I look forward to each new book. Felicia was hilariously literal to me. I loved the way she talked and thought and acted. I have never read a character quite like her and I found her endearing. She is so dang smart yet she lacks basic social and street smarts. It makes her an intriguing combination of intelligence and vulnerability. I found myself looking forward to what would come out of her mouth next.

Ive been dying to know more about Gideon since he rolled into town. It was nice to finally peel away the layers to get to the heart of him. He was so sweet with Felicia, even if it took him a while to come to his senses. Men!

I would have loved to have rated this a 5 star book, because it was that enjoyable. However, I found the ending a little abrupt and a too reminiscent of the previous book Just One Kiss. There was also a too much cheese added to the resolution for my tastes. Other than that there is a whole bunch of fantastic on these pages and a surprise I didnt see coming.
