From the TBR Pile: Blog Tour: Moonlight Over Manhattan by Sarah Morgan

Author: Sarah Morgan

Publisher: Harlequin

Date of publication: November 2017

Determined to conquer a lifetime of shyness, Harriet Knight challenges herself to do one thing a day in December that scares her, including celebrating Christmas without her family. But when dog walker Harriet meets her newest client, exuberant spaniel Madi, she adds an extra challenge to her list—dealing with Madi’s temporary dog sitter, gruff doctor Ethan Black, and their very unexpected chemistry.

Ethan thought he was used to chaos, until he met Madi—how can one tiny dog cause such mayhem? To Ethan, the solution is simple—he will pay Harriet to share his New York apartment and provide twenty-four-hour care. But there’s nothing simple about how Harriet makes him feel.

Ethan’s kisses make Harriet shine brighter than the stars over moonlit Manhattan. But when his dog-sitting duties are over and Harriet returns to her own home, will she dare to take the biggest challenge of all—letting Ethan know he has her heart for life, not just for Christmas?

Moonlight Over Manhattan is the sixth book in this series. It can easily be read as a stand alone book. This is Harriet and Ethan;s story. I'll admit that this whole series has kind of been hit or miss for me. This one was pretty much a miss. I finished the book, but it really felt like it took forever to get to the HEA.

The main characters were what were the major part of the miss for me. Harriet, who is the goody-goody, naive twin, now finds herself on her own after her twin sister found love and moved out. She has challenged herself to do something difficult every day. For Harriet, it seems everything is a challenge and that got a bit old after a while. Ethan was kind just plain boring. He is a great ER doctor, but outside of the hospital, he didn't really leap off the pages. I honestly didn't feel the chemistry between this couple. Even their HEA declaration was pretty lackluster. Honestly, I felt like Ethan and Susan had more chemistry and they were just co-workers and friends.

I have seen good reviews for the book, so you will probably want to judge for yourself. It just wasn't for me.
