My first by Martin, though I do know the characters a are connected to one's in her other books...
It wasn't bad, though not as great as I was hoping. The heroine is a snob (from the references in this one I think you learn that in the previous book about the h's sister, Just a Taste ) and she was hard to like at first. By the end of the book though, I didn't mind her nearly as much as I had.
The Hero, well he bugged me as well, but his willingness to change himself (not becasue of what someone else may have said to him, but beasue he realized his own wish to)
was what made me not hate him.
The sex scenes were hotter then I expected, though about on par for contemporary Romances...
though I did wish the resolving of issues b/w the H and h was a bit more drawn out.
As for the story... It had a beginning, a middle, and an end, I just couldn't seem to care all that much for it. It wasn't bad, mind you, It jut wasn't gut wrenching, or a stay up all night an finish type.
Though the Irish-ness of the H's family was fun, if a bit stereotypical. (If you like Irish Hero's and their Irish families a good read is Susan Donovan's Knock Me Off My Feet)
So while this one didn't make me an automatic fan of DM's, it definitely got my interest up :)
