I thought the setting made an interesting change with the female protagonist being the successful career woman and the male one being the rather "normal" working guy. I also found the basketball scene a nice change in the sports romances. Christian and Elise had some sizzling chemistry but they failed to really persuade me together. I just didn't really connect with the two. Especially Elise felt very distant to me and I just couldn't warm up with her. The ending felt very rushed and I thing a few more pages would have been better here. The author does have an easy and enjoyable writing style.
