My Thoughts
May stabbed her NFL quarterback boyfriend with a fork when he made a mess of a proposal. So now she is out on her own and not the most popular person in NY. Course she isn't a big fan of NY either. She meets Ben who used to be a chef but is now working as a beekeeper. Since she was mugged and has nothing and nowhere to go, Ben takes her home and then takes the challenge of re-introducing her to NY to change the way she feels about it. In the process they become friends and then there was more.
I really liked Ben. He had the life he dreamed of and messed it all up and May wasn't really sure what she wanted just what she didn't want.
I give Truly 3 hearts!
About the Book
May Fredericks hates New York. Which is fair enough, since
New York seems to hate her back. After relocating to Manhattan from the Midwest
to be with her long-distance boyfriend, NFL quarterback Thor Einarsson, May
receives the world’s worst marriage proposal, stabs the jerk with a shrimp
fork, and storms off alone—only to get mugged. Now she’s got no phone, no cash,
and no friends. How’s a nice girl supposed to get back to safe, sensible
Wisconsin?
Frankly, Ben Hausman couldn’t care less. Sure, it’s not
every day he meets a genuine, down-to-earth woman like May—especially in a dive
in the Village—but he’s recovering from an ugly divorce that cost him his
restaurant. He wants to be left alone to start over and become a better man.
Then again, playing the white knight to May’s sexy damsel in distress would be
an excellent place to start—if only he can give her one very good reason to
love New York.

About the Author
New York Times bestselling author Ruthie Knox writes
contemporary romance that's sexy, witty, and angsty--sometimes all three at
once. After training to be a British historian, she became an academic editor
instead. Then she got really deeply into knitting, as one does, followed by
motherhood and romance novel writing.
Her debut novel, Ride with Me, is probably the only existing
cross-country bicycling love story. She followed it up with About Last Night, a
London-set romance whose hero has the unlikely name of Neville, and then Room
at the Inn, a Christmas novella--both of which were finalists for the Romance
Writers of America's RITA Award. Her four-book series about the Clark family of
Camelot, Ohio, has won accolades for its fresh, funny portrayal of small-town
Midwestern life. She also writes New Adult romance as Robin York.
Ruthie moonlights as a mother, Tweets incessantly, and bakes
a mean focaccia.
