Classic SEP. this feels like past SEP but without the problematic consent issues. I absolutely loved this book - it’s fun, funny, swoony, the tension builds and feels realistic. I was worried it would be: rich, strong man and messy inept woman but Rory really is so much stronger than you think (and her family thinks) at the outset. 

I also liked the mystery of this and was surprised at who the killer was! 

My one negative critique is that both characters talk about how they don’t want kids or marriage but that shifts really quickly by the end. I understand people’s ideas changing when they meet the right person BUT I do wish that SEP had them stay firm at least with their desire to not have children as it’s so rare in romance.
