3.5 - 4 Stars
This was a good start to a new series revolving around 3 brothers in Manhattan who are successful lawyers. Book 1 is Finn's story.
Finn is at the height of his career as a corporate lawyer. Owning his own firm with his family at the young age of 40. But aside from family, he doesn't have much else to show for it. He spends the summer in Martha's Vineyard and meets his beautiful neighbor who is beautiful but also kind to his neice. Quickly he is drawn in and blindsided by his feelings that he has never experienced in the past. Watching her healing and finding her place again is hard for him. He struggles to not take charge on her behalf.
London was a famous Broadway actress but when tragedy strikes and she looses her parents and finds herself broken and in need of healing, it puts her career in jeopardy. She is at least 10 years older than those auditioning these days. Will she make it back on the stage. She is temporarily distracted by the sexy as sin neighbor.
As the relationship grows they still have their problems, most centering around communication, or lack there of. She needs to be on control of her life and refuses to let him take care of her. Will they be able to work past this?
I enjoyed the characters and the lead up of the secondary characters is well done
I did feel that the story was a little rushed and some additional detail could have been added. Looking forward to the next book.
