This book was great in certain parts. I liked the heroine right from the start, she was fun and the hero/heroine had crazy chemistry. What irked me was the emphasis the heroine put on their different backgrounds, over and over again and how she was willing to be so self sacrificing. The hero didn't come from a loving family and was estranged from his almost grown son, who had a terrible crush on the heroine.

I liked both the hero and the heroine, and thought they fit really well together. I also liked the issues of the hero with his son, although the whole puppy-love thing for Sabrina was a bit annoying.
Decent.

Many moons ago I would have read a book like this and thought that the guy was just being passionate with all of his grabbing the heroine and roughly turning her around. Now I just think it's controlling and abusive. There are even points where he is described as grabbing her so hard that it hurts. Um, no! I acknowledge that this book was published in 1995. This is the time when sexual harassment had been in the news. After 1992's year of the woman. It was a time of lots of changes and rights for women but this book (at least to me) represents a backlash of sorts.
She's a career woman. She does window displays and organizes the store's holiday parade. He's the owner of the store. She doesn't want to get involved. He seems to want sex. She falls in love but she doesn't even know him. We as the audience have no real clue if he is in love or not, but we do know that he wants her, sexually at least. It's a very heroine is tortured by her unrequited love of the hero. Hero is missing love in his life. He must make a choice: establish a relationship with his teen son or have a relationship with the heroine.
Just didn't work for me. I thought that the book could have been shorter.
