RATING: 4 out of 5 Stars
VALENTINE: A HEARTS AND KISSES ROMANCE by Jacquie Biggar is a sweet contemporary romance novella. A quick, easy read that gives you that HEA jolt you are looking for.
Valentine “Val” Hodgins is an architect with a hugely successful firm, who has buried himself in work since his divorce. When his great aunt falls ill with pneumonia, she asks him to come back home to look after her huge, old house, tenants and her dog, Cupid.
Sierra Johnson dreamed of owning her own catering company until her boyfriend took off with her money and credit. Now she is working for the-boss-from-hell, care-taking an old house to help with the rent and trying to break her string of bad luck.
Val does not want to get involved with the quirky, fiery red-head, Sierra, but he just cannot seem to quit baiting her. Sierra cannot believe she is attracted to this aggravating man who has invaded her work and home life. Both have been burned in love. Can they trust in love again?
This novella has snappy dialogue and a fast to read length. No new plot twists, but an enjoyable HEA. A little reading delight with no sex but an entertaining romance.
