What Were You Expecting?

Gibson is known for writing smart, sexy contemporary romances. There was a lot to like about this book. When done well I love the reunited lovers theme and Gibson has always done it well in the past. For the most part Gibson delivered. The characters were just as smart and sexy as always. The storyline was interesting and the hints of their past added just the right amount of tension and mystery. The relationship both characters had with their son really worked. I struggled with some of Sam's actions, from the past and in the present. Gibson tried to give us a reason for what he did, but I haven't decided if it hit the mark or was just a flimsy excuse. The romance worked in the beginning, but the resolution seemed to come out of nowhere. I would have liked to see another 20 pages to develop the romance.
