Malia and Palmer were an interesting couple. They started out as adversaries. Malia's company did ad work for Palmer's wedding planning business. Although they'd worked together for a year, their relationship was barely professional.. Palmer was arrogant, cold, and difficult to work with; Malia was grateful that at the conclusion of the meeting at the beginning of the story she wouldn't have to work with him anymore. Her announcement that she was moving into a different phase of her company and someone else would be handling Palmer's advertising caught him off guard and panicked him. Beneath the surface they were attracted to each other. Malia wasn't willing to face or acknowledge that and Palmer wasn't sure how to keep her in his life. He tried coming clean and admitting he wanted to go out with her; she refused. A series of coincidences, intense pressure from both of their families to find the right person and settle down, the need for both Palmer and Malia to produce a date for a family wedding, unrelenting persistence by Palmer to break through Malia's barriers, and their different goals for the future makes for a rocky romance, but they achieve their HEA. Despite Palmer's initial, unfavorable portrayal he turns out to be a very romantic, compassionate and caring hero. Malia was strong, fiesty, smart and independent, a great match for Palmer. I enjoyed the close, warm friendship between Malia and her friends/business partners and with Mike, the father of a deceased partner who was a father figure to all three of them. The subplot about Mike and a diner regular Emma who has a crush on him is developed a bit more in this second book. It'll be interesting to see how the author handles a romance between Tessa (one of the friends/partners) and Ford in the next one. Right now, they seem an unlikely pairing.
