I apologize if any spoilers:I think the time frame caught me off guard...the cover doesn't show it as a 70's/80's book and really, the only thing that would give away the time frame is the blouse with the big bow and the fact she said she was born in 57.My beef with this book is how unnatural the dialogue was. Alex's banter was very unnatural and the whole Golly Gee kid speak was silly.The people who caused trouble in the book didn't really cause ENOUGH trouble to get the heart pumping. I liked the fact that they did work very hard together and made a good team and it wasn't just a flimsy skirt-in-the-office plot. The author wanted to put a real story out there. They did make such a good team together though, I'm sad she wouldn't continue their working relationship. With as much time as she spent on steel and as much heart as she put into it...you'd think she'd be just as committed to that as he was. What a delightful book, the best part was how we saw the friendship develop between the h/H. They are boss and employee but they have a way of bantering with each other I loved. The heroine was a very alone person, having grown up in foster care and worked hard to educate herself. I liked seeing how focused she was, she also had great instincts for self preservation and was quite blind to emotional cues. For example the hero's caring behaviour towards her and the silence that came later were quite easy to comprehend, but it takes her a long while to understand it all and even a longer time to change a lifetime of habits.I liked how she said she needed time to allow love in her life. I loved the writing style and the almost philosophical tone of the book.
