Love and Neckties - Lacey Black



Title: Love and Neckties
Series: Rockland Falls #4
Author: Lacey Black
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: June 23, 2020




For Samuel Grayson, everything is black or white. As a funeral director, there’s no room for in-between. He’s accustomed to dealing with life and death, though he’s definitely more comfortable with the latter. Especially when it comes to a chaotic, petite, feisty ball of energy. Freedom Rayne. Samuel’s pretty sure her goal is to make his life hell, or so it appears. When Samuel boards a flight to Las Vegas for his sister’s wedding, the last thing he expects is to share it with the one woman who drives him crazy.

Freedom is eccentric and completely content with it. Floating around from job to job, she finds peace and tranquility in everything she does, including tormenting poor, uptight Samuel Grayson. When she finds herself on the same flight as him for her best friend’s wedding, she sees this as the perfect opportunity to get under his skin, something she tries to do every chance she gets. The problem is the more time she spends with him, the more she likes him.

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, right? Not for Samuel and Freedom. Will they be able to forget about their trip when they return to Rockland Falls? What if one mistake turns out to be the best thing ever?














Love and Neckties features Samuel Grayson, the last Grayson sibling of Rockland Falls to find his happy ever after.   Samuel is a little odd, and more than a little anal, and as much as I’ve been intrigued by his character I wasn’t sure what to expect from his story, but it didn’t disappoint.

When Samuel and Freedom are thrown together for Harper and Latham’s wedding, the sparks fly. 

Samuel is a funeral director, who loves the routine of his work and life.  He’s set in his ways  and his life is very black and white.  He’s a perfectionist  and likes everything to be neat, tidy and to have it’s place.  He’s a lot more multifaceted than I expected and there were a few surprises when it came to his character.

Freedom is Samuel’s opposite in every way.  She’s free spirited, fun, colorful and feisty.  Freedom is honest, loud and proud, and likes nothing more than to push Samuel’s boundaries to see if she can get a reaction, from this aloof hero.

This pair of characters are fun, and endearing, their story is a sweet, heartwarming and flirtatious read.   Their banter is antagonistic, but also fun, flirtatious and witty.

I’m sad to see the end of the Rockland Falls series, but can’t wait to see what Lacey Black writes next.
