I haven't read this yet but I'm guessing the connection is Grant Campbell is related to Shelby Campbell?

I finished this last night. I still struggle with how the men in these series are a bit forceful in their approach to romancing the women. Can’t understand why Grant kept grabbing and shaking Gennie. Threw me out of the story every time.
However, I loved their careers! I learned so much about how a cartoon is crafted. And, Gennie’s painting was interesting.
I liked these two but struggled with what Gennie saw in Grant. He was a bit too nasty for my tastes.
Anyone else have a point of view?

I liked everything in this story except how Grant was such a jerk. I really loved Gennie but wondered why she would let him get away with it.
