Neanderthal

I was really looking forward to Griff's book as I'm all about the family grump meeting their sunshine! This was like the meeting of two highly functioning, over-achieving nerds and I just luuuuurved it!

Griff is a machine when it comes to problem-solving and he could probably run the world if he could be bothered. But that doesn't mean he doesn't have deep-seated issues and a need to prove his odious father wrong. Kinsey is used to being written off solely based on her looks - either she's too young, too pretty, too southern. Sometimes it works to her benefit and she takes people unaware when she hits them upside the head with her intelligence. But she also has issues that have taken over her adult life, all stemming from her childhood and her neglectful mother.

Kinsey is a total smart missile - she sees the problem, solves the issue and BLAMMO. Whether that problem is science-based or human-based makes no difference to her. I loved her verbal takedowns - she does not miss her targets - ever! Griff, oh my wordy, for a man who doesn't talk much he sure knows what to say when the moment is right. Who knew that under all that silent, gruffness beat the heart and mouth of - well, you'll find out for yourself! He just totally went with his initial gut feelings of Kinsey before he even knew what she looked like, then he just had to go along with the ride to get her to see the same solution he did!

This family just goes from strength to strength! And Nash - oh that low-down dirty cheat! I can't wait till he gets his HEA. I hope he's led a merry dance!
