Plenty of steam too as Lake and Kirsty work out all their "tensions" during their lingerie war. Reader Rated for ages 17 for somewhat detailed fade-out sensuality and implied sex; also contains mild swear words and violence. (  ) LisaRector | Sep 28, 2017 | That being said, a redeeming feature is the excellent secondary characters, who were often weird, very idiosyncratic, and a lot of fun. The romance was fine. Somewhat long on both the heavy-breathing and the antagonism between the lovers, but that's a trope. One comment: Henderson might wish to explore ways to evoke character responses other than narrowing their eyes. This happened so often- sometimes multiple times per page- that it almost felt like a running joke. Oddly, I did not find it as annoying as Jim Butcher's overuse of "said quietly"- once 5 times per page (and yes, by that point I was counting)- but a few more ways to describe emotional reactions would liven things up.

HTML: Englishman Lake Benson loaned his life savings to his dippy sister so that she could buy a shop. It was a big mistake. His sister has been steadily flushing his money down the drain – and now he wants it back. Years in the special forces taught Lake that if you want a job done, do it yourself. So he steps in to make the shop profitable, sell it and get his money back. The only problem is, the business is an underwear shop. And all Lake knows about underwear can be summed up in how fast he can unsnap a bra. To make matters worse, the tiny highland town already has a lingerie shop. A successful one, run by an ex-lingerie model. A very gorgeous ex-lingerie model, who’s distracting him from his mission more than he’d like to admit. If Lake wants to get his savings back, and get out of Scotland, he only has one option – wipe out the competition. Kirsty Campbell has spent years rebuilding her life after she woke up in hospital in Spain to find her body scarred, and her ex-fiance had run off with all her money. The last thing she needs is a cocky, English soldier-boy trying to ruin all she has left. Her home town is only too happy to help her fight the latest English invasion, although Lake is beginning to sway them with his sex appeal and cut price knickers. With the help of her mother, and the retired ladies of Knit or Die, Kirsty sets about making sure that her shop is the last one standing in Invertary. It’s Scotland versus England as you’ve never seen it before. It’s lingerie war .No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Typical small village mentality, some silly but very funny shenanigans.
Behind all the humour though are some serious issues, Kirsty, the heroine is badly scared and it deals with her learning o overcome her change in life.
