22 Indigo Place by Sandra Brown


Started: 4/6/06
Finished: 4/7/06
Pages: 200
Year: 1986
Genre: Romance
Grade: B
Reason for reading: grabbed it off the TBR shelf (from a bookbox)
Blurb (from back cover): "To beautiful Laura Nola, the mansion on Indigo Place wasn't just a home-it was her life's passion. Now old family debts were forcing her to sell and, much to her surprise, James Paden was the prospective buyer. Once the high school bad boy, he'd been too dangerous to flirt with, but too gorgeous to ignore. Now he was all man, and he still had the devastating power to seduce Laura's senses, to make her shiver with emotions she dared not confess...
"Years ago, James Paden skipped town, leaving behind Saturday-night drag races for the thrill of the professional race circuit. He'd burned rubber in the fast lane of beautiful women and big money, but now he's back, a millionaire tycoon with a dream-to lay claim to 22 Indigo Place and its alluring owner. In his mind Laura had always been the girl he couldn't have, the rich man's daugher for whom he'd never be good enough...until that moonlit night when the fierce touch of his lips branded her forever his..."
Opinion: There hasn't been a Sandra Brown book that I have enjoyed for some reason. My only problem with this one is that James and Laura never admitted their true feelings until the end-something that just wasn't realistic. Other than that, the romance between the two was good-especially with James's secret.
