The
Love Trap
By
Fran Shaff
This
is an exciting new romance from Ms. Shaff, author of Montana Match.
The Love Trap introduces the reader to Carly Ross, a work-at-home
who has a new loud neighbor, Devin Serrano. Carly attempts to distract
Dev from doing his noise makings by attempting to set him up romantically
with someone, only to find out that she cares about who he dates.
Ms.
Shaff does a tremendous job of characterizing Carly and Devin, just
as she did in Montana Match. She has Devin in a wheelchair due to
an accident but does not emphasize that fact except for his physical
therapy routines which adds a humane aspect to Devin's character.
The chemistry between Carly and Devin jump from the pages and makes
the reader excited about reading the next page. The plot is slightly
predictable but the predictability does not take away from the excitement
that the reader has for reading this enjoyable romance book.
Ms.
Shaff has found her mark in the romance genre of book writing and
this reader hopes that she continues the excellent work that she
has been doing.
