So these dummies didn't really have problems and it ended in that horribly abrupt and unsatisfying way that Harlequins sometimes do. But there were things I enjoyed about it. It's a shame the author got lazy and stopped having them talk like humans every so often.

Not that there's any real conflict in this story but just because they're having sex it doesn't matter about staying with his friends or his brother visiting? Then why did he make a big deal about it? He could have made these same excuses earlier.

She's a lawyer and she works in a women's shelter. She shouldn't suddenly be this weird about meeting new people. She's not an antisocial hermit.

I don't know if he's an alpha so much as a weird robot but I'm finding this kind of funny. I don't know if it's intentional but the way he changes the subject after dropping news that makes her emotional is becoming funny.

By the way, what does the hero do? I'm halfway through the book and all I know is it's business-y and he's rich and busy. I have no idea what his job is.

On the one hand, it's weird writing for a character to think something and then voice that thought a few moments later. On the other hand, at least they're communicating to some degree.

I don't think honesty (about not looking for longterm relationships) and presents are the defining characters of healthy relationships with women or treating them well. He makes weird arguments.

Also, for a brainy lawyer, her instinct is to throw things (even though she doesn't) way too often.
