The banter and back and forth dialogue was just perfect. I loved the storyline and watching these two find their way to one another. Ms. Baily has penned such a fun, lighthearted story with a bit of intrigue, wonderful characters, an interesting family and a perfect ending. I was totally captivated throughout.
