Best Laid Plans, Jack Series #2 by Nora Roberts
Abra Red Wilson (she's got red hair) was in charge of the resort, her biggest project yet and she had to work the hours and put in the time to bring it to the end and under budget.
Cody Johnson, architect was an obstacle she couldn't wait to get through.
Love the process of a building going up, all the tiny details. Nothing was overlooked on her watch. She wants the project to move smoothly.
He's been there to help her even change her tire on the car although she can do it herself.
The beam almost hit her and although he grabbed her out of the way he and she were still terrified inside. Does someone there not want a female on the job?
Besides being a team professionally they now have to appear in a private manner, a company party. He shows up in a light cclored nice suit and with his tan it blows her away. She decides to fight by dressing to please him also
in her black snug fitting dress. He finds it hard to concentrate on him as she discusses movies with the millionaire Thornway.
He feels like he's in competition with the millionaire and he's 65. Cody just gives her the space she needs to get over the tiff.
They clash when it comes to what he wants and what she wants in the project. ( )

Boring. I listened for 30... 60...(?)... minutes and all I could think was how "dated" this story sounded. When I found out it was first published in 1989, then I was not so surprised. ( )

Architect and Engineer meet and sparks fly. ( )
