Growing up as the only child of a hypochondriac was difficult and he tries to avoid visiting her whenever possible. Sean Knox is making a trip home to see his mom in Sandspit, Canada and isn’t really looking forward to it. He is making increasingly offensive comments about the women on the show when he spots a familiar face: their daughter Lexie. John hates the show, loves his daughter, and maybe hates his new player. Instead, the couple are sort of watching Gettin’ Hitched (a Bachelor/Bachelorette-esque show), talking about their daughter and the success of her doggie couture business (yes, you read that right), and discussing the Seattle Chinooks newest acquisition. Get your mind out of the gutter – there’s no lovey dovey taking place. The Art of Running in Heels opens in the bedroom of John and Georgeanne Kowalsky (featured in the very first Chinook book, Simply Irresistible). I wanted to like this so much more than I did. I wasn’t familiar with the Chinooks series before, and I won’t be backtracking to the beginning based on this novel. From its ridiculous set-up, to its slightly dull and predictable conclusion, The Art of Running in Heels is just ‘meh’. It should be a magical trifecta of my most favorite things.
Romance, hockey, and a long running, successful series of novels by the talented Rachel Gibson.
