I like the references to knitting as I am a knitting fan - but chic lit romances are boring.

Entertaining enough but not incredibly well written.  I found the plot relied on co-incidence, the charectors were not convincing and there was no sense of place.  

I would not be interesed in reading anymore from the author.
