Publisher's summary

The Best Laid Plans of an architect and a structural engineer go awry when a disagreement over blueprints becomes a foundation for love in this Loving Jack novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts.

Cody Johnson knows his building designs are solid. Abra Wilson believes she can’t possibly construct anything so fancifully imagined. Collaborating on this new resort leads to many heated debates—as well as unexpected rises in passion. But even as Cody and Abra put in overtime professionally and personally, someone determined to sabotage the project puts their lives in danger.

One of my favorites

This is definitely a favorite Nora Roberts. The characters were great. Listening to the relationship between Coty and Abra develop was interesting. Both strong personalities and fully adult accomplished people. The love story felt more real than some

The story really had no drama

Normally Nora Roberts has a great story which surrounds a romance. In this case there was barely a story. When I thought that finally something was happening in the plot (drama), it was short lived and then the book ended. Even the romance portion was only mediocre in its development. Don't waste your money if you are looking for a full Nora type story.
