She's a sassy socialite burned by love. He's a jaded cop burned by the upper class.
When sparks fly . . . will love catch fire again?
Spunky Allison McClare is determined to
be a fearless, independent woman. But when she takes a notion to explore
the wild Barbary Coast, she quickly discovers she's no match for the
unsavory characters that haunt the dark streets.
Detective Nick Barone would rather do almost anything than teach this
petite socialite self-defense, but it seems he has little choice. Sparks
fly every time the two meet until a grudging friendship develops into
something deeper. But is he just a fraud like all the rest of the men
Allison's cared for? Or is he the one who will let her dare to love
again?
Award-winning author Julie Lessman brings the glamour of Gilded Age San
Francisco to vibrant life in this journey to find a love that never
fails.
My Review,
This is the second book in the Heart of San Francisco by Julie Lessman. This time we read about Allison McClare who wants to prove to everyone that women can rely on themselves. In the past Allison has been hurt by love and she does not to take that chance. Detective Nick Barone has noticed Allison and they start about an attraction that neither can deny.
I really liked the 2 main characters in this book and how they get along. The author has given us a peek at how women had to fight to be independent in San Francisco in this time. I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book by Revell Publishers for the purpose of a review and all opinions are my own.
