He needs to get her out of his system. Just once...

Hank Weller doesn't help people. He leaves that do-gooder nonsense to his best friend, Beau Winston. Hank does what he wants, when he wants, with whomever he wants—and Hank does not want to hire Charlotte Mitchell to be an exotic dancer at his club, The Pink Pony. Sure, he can't help noticing the dips and curves of her, how shrewd, smart, and funny she is, the fire in her hazel eyes. He's always noticed. She'd probably draw a crowd and entice the regulars. But after Charlotte's messy, public divorce made Hank's club out to be the culprit—and made her the single mother of four kids—he doesn't need or want any additional bad press courtesy of Charlotte Mitchell. Or the distraction. Unfortunately for him, the town's prettiest charity case doesn't seem to understand the meaning of the words nope, no, and never.

Charlotte Mitchell doesn't much like Hank Weller. Once upon a time, she used to. Years ago, she liked him a whole heckofalot despite other folks in town labeling him as "eccentric" and "nonconformist," which were polite southern alternatives to "filthy rich" and "self-centered douchebag." Her opinion of him changed dramatically after he volunteered to be her date to junior prom and then promptly stood her up. They haven't so much as acknowledged each other in over a decade. But a sudden family emergency means Charlotte needs access to Hank's club ASAP. Unfortunately for her, the narcissistic fancy-pants doesn't seem to understand the meaning of the words help, generosity, and compassion.

But he's about to find himself schooled. Charlotte is going to teach Hank a lesson once and for all about basic human decency, whether he likes it or not.

Spoiler alert. . . he likes it. … (altro)

What can I say I found one book by this author I didn't love. It had to happen I guess. For me it was the characters and their story. Hank was too easy, so bendable, so completely a wuss. He was willing to give up all of him for a woman that was meh for this reader. At one point he wants to give up something he firmly believes in just to make her look good to the town folk. Really Hank, what about your "gotta protect them" belief ? He found her sexy as "he double hockey sticks", I found her a hollow shell. Charlotte, was a cookie cutter conservative type woman that had been left by her husband for young stripper. She's got 4 kids, that Hank Mr. Don't Like Kids instantly falls in love with. Yeah, I didn't buy it. She tells him she doesn't have time for dates, him, relationship, so he gives up all his to support her. Okay aww that's sweet but who wants a shadow of a person, following you around giving up all their interests ?
So now lets talk about how everything just falls into perfect place far too easily. There was no hurdle except in head. Grumble grumble grumble
Bottom line Meh Meh Meh. May I never see this couple again ( )

Hank Weller owns the Pink Pony, an exotic dancer club. He knows Charlotte Mitchell as the do-gooder mother of four kids and is shocked when she applies for a job. He ends up making her his bookkeeper rather than a dancer, not because he wants to help but... well, I'm not sure he really knows why. Hank's one of those heart-of-gold guys though it takes a while to shine through. Charlotte is really there as a favor to her aunt and uncle, but her responsible self can't help but organize the man's books.
It's a typical Penny Reid romance in Green Valley. I like the opposites attract theme, and it works fine here. There's humor and plenty of Winstons to satisfy readers of the Beard series. ( )
