Love on Lexington Avenue by Lauren Layne

There are no good men left in New York City. 'Fans of The Devil Wears Prada will flip over Love on Lexington Avenue.' 'Karen Hawkins, New York Times bestselling author But when long workdays turn into even longer nights, their mutual wariness morphs into something more complicated-a grudging respect, and maybe even attraction.įilled with laugh-out-loud scenes that blend perfectly with the touching friendships Layne brings to life on the page, this 'hugely entertaining' ( USA TODAY) novel is perfect for fans of Lauren Weisberger. Scott bluntly makes it known to Claire that he only took on her house for a change of pace from the corporate offices and swanky hotels he's been building lately, and he doesn't hesitate to add that he has no patience for a pampered, damaged princess with a penchant for pink. But what starts out as a simple renovation becomes a lot more complicated when she meets her bad-tempered and rough-around-the-edges contractor Scott Turner. Determined to rid her home of anything that reminds her of her cheating husband, Claire sets out to redesign her boring, beige Upper East Side brownstone and make it something all her own.

At least that's Claire Hayes's conviction after finding out her late husband was not the man she thought he was. From New York Times bestselling author Lauren Layne comes the second delightfully charming installment in the Central Park Pact series, following a young widow whose newfound cynicism about love is challenged by a sexy, rough-around-the-edges contractor.
