This is an engaging story about a couple, Petra and Sam, who initially meet in a closet. That is a recurring humorous theme throughout the book. This book is really 3.5 stars for me but I'm rounding up because I did enjoy it a lot. In the "like" column, the storyline is interesting and the book is well-edited. The couple are in their late 30s which I appreciate because an increasing number of books lately seem to be about very young couples and I don't find them interesting. Sam and Petra are old enough to be established in their careers, to know what they want...and what they don't. The author builds the heat in the closet and the bedroom but she leaves quite a bit to the reader's imagination; I'd say maybe 7ish on a heat scale. In addition to liking the main characters I also really liked Liam and the way he became a friend to both. The characters are developed but I don't feel like I know them as much as I'd like to. Still, their time spent getting to know each other is romantic, kind and often made me smile. They genuinely like each other as they fall in love.
Petra and Sam are both working on finding something out from Petra's ex-husband Jonas, but they don't share information with each other which lands them in avoidable trouble. The book loses a star for that and some unneeded complexity that added to the page count but not the story imho. Also, while I understand the nature of the illegal activity that was happening it wasn't clear to me exactly what was being done; perhaps I just missed that. Final thing that didn't fully work for me is that Petra was a smart woman but she was blind to a couple of folks in her life...unrealistically enough that her naive and dangerous blindspots almost--but not quite--approached tstl moments.
This is my first Reis book but it's well-written so I plan to read her again if she has other books. Good story, nice characters, relatively tepid heat...well worth the time I spent reading it.
