Loved it
I really enjoyed reading this book. I love Caleb and Jules and the chemistry they have. Because of the long standing feud between the two families, Caleb tries his best to prove to Jules that he's nothing like his father. Jules doesn't believe him and constantly thinks he has an ulterior motive. The more that they fight, the stronger the attraction. I also like Melissa and Noah and wish I could know how things worked out for them.

Loved it! A great storyline with disappointment, hopes, dreams and romance. There's nothing better than a Harlequin.

Temptation indeed! The characters are fun ... kind, yet sassy. The story line was interesting, but I would have liked the pregnancy to have played an earlier part so that there was more than just the back and forth of the business drama.
Juliet Parker and her sister Melissa have recently come back to Whiskey Bay, Washington to reopen their grandfather's dream business in his honor. They are hard at work and on a strict budget to get things done when the neighbor comes knocking with complaints of them reopening back up after all these years!
Caleb Watford has his own plans for a business nearby, and the fact that Jules is here is going to throw a major wrench in it! It would be easier to deal with if he wasn't so attracted and drawn to her. When a one night fling amidst their fighting leads to twins being on the way, they are going to have to think fast and straighten things out!

Too much fighting.
This was lacking plot, lacking compelling characters, and filled with verbal fighting about two people building competing restaurants. One would find it hard to see how the characters could find anything to like about each other, much less love. None of the characters were well developed and I found it hard to finish the book.
