Book Reviews of Head Over Heels (Marine, Book 1)

Book Review: 2.5 stars. Overall the story didn't grab me. I also had trouble with the heroine Ronnie.
Summary: 3 Stars

I didn't like her enough. She got mad at Coop too easily and too frequently. I didn't care for the fight that separated them, described below. I enjoyed Coop, even though he was a little over-alpha. Because of the ways their parents treated them, both Ronnie and Coop had issues with trust and acceptance, which was the undercurrent for their conflicts. I'd recommend borrowing this rather than buying it.

Story brief: Crystal is murdered. Circumstantial evidence points to Eddie, her husband. Eddie goes on the run. Ronnie is Crystal's sister. Ronnie comes to town to take care of the six-year-old daughter Lizzie. The "Tonk" bar was owned by Crystal, and Ronnie oversees it until she can sell it to put the proceeds in trust for Lizzie. Coop is Eddie's half brother. He believes Eddie is innocent. He comes to town and takes a job as bartender in the Tonk bar. No one knows that he is related to Eddie or that he is a famous author. By keeping his identity secret, he hopes to uncover information to prove his brother's innocence.

CAUTION SPOILER:
Coop and Ronnie fall in love and are together for about a month before she learns that Coop is related to Eddie. She is mad that he didn't tell her sooner, and she breaks up with him. She plans to take Lizzie and move to Seattle within a couple of days. I think she over reacted. His reasons weren't that out of line. Sure he might have told her a little sooner, but this was not something to break up over.

Sexual language: mild. Number of sex scenes: six. Setting: current day small town Fossil, Washington. Copyright: 2002. Genre: contemporary romance.
