First law of magnetism: opposite poles attract.

Single mom Vivian has been burned by love once before, and her job as a divorce lawyer has presented enough evidence to convince her there are no good men left in New York City.

The worst offender is her new neighbor: Dr. Lucas Keller, a couple’s therapist whose piercing blue eyes and flawless dark hair are just as annoying as his bad temper.

But when Luke starts poaching Vivian’s clients by saving their marriages, she makes it her mission to force him out of the building to save her practice. But it’s Luke who gives her the perfect opportunity when he proposes an unexpected bet.

With their offices at stake, Vivian and Luke play the field of love in a fierce battle of wits that quickly turns hot and personal, especially when Vivian’s daughter gets involved. Now, taking down Luke has become more than business for Vivian. It’s become a pleasure—and soon, Vivian and Luke will realize how pointless it is to fight the laws of attraction.


 My Thoughts

This is a really fun read which fizzes with life. Vivian and Lucas are such opposites that there is plenty of humour to be had, in true romcom fashion. As you find out, there is more to Vivian than the tough divorce lawyer she appears to be on the outside. She is a determined woman who puts her daughter before everything else. The war of words the two of them have is sparky and really makes you smile. This is a real cheerer-up of a book- if that words exists!

    You soon get to see Lucas' softer side through his work and dealings with Vivian's teenage daughter. His sincerity and patience shine out. You are just waiting for Vivian to notice it. You are given both points of view which adds interest and the pace of the story is always upbeat. There is plenty of humour in both Vivian and Lucas; dates and in all, this is a highly entertaining read. 

In short: A lively romcom where the sparks fly!
