This is a 187 page book and 143 pages take place in over a 24 hour period. From one morning to the next morning. Weird but oddly not too draggy. This author can write some pretty intense angsty books. This one wasn't one of those. These two people had the hots for each other from the get go. There was a serious amount of angry snipping, angry kissing, angry accusations ending in a passionate hookup and agreement to marry in that 24 hours. Still this author is good so you totally bought into what was essentially a love at first sight story. Interesting reading but maybe not a reread. ( )
