Declan Groves is a CPA in New York City. His adult life is dictated by routine and monotony. The need to express himself, in ways his career and crippling shyness have never allowed, leads Declan to becoming an amateur stop-motion filmmaker. The problem with this-Declan is now in love with the Wandering Artist Studios receptionist, Shota Watanabe. Shota has always had a smile and engaging comment ready for Declan, but even if it's more than casual politeness, Declan hasn't been able to get out more than a tongue-tied sentence at a time. And a man like Shota surely has no intention of waiting forever.So when an unexpected change to Declan's daily schedule during Christmastime throws the two together outside of the studio, it might be the catalyst needed to explore what's been unspoken between them. But if they're to have a future, Declan needs to find a way to tell Shota how he feels before the magic of the holidays is behind them. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

This book is more subdued than the last book I read by this author, which was Love, Marriage and a Baby Carriage. Events proceed slowly as Declan interacts with Shota. Declan is extremely tongue-tied when he’s around Shota, and Shota remains polite even though it’s clear he’s attracted to Declan. Shota later explains why he had to remain distant. The story moves along at a slow pace until fate intervenes. I can’t really say much else because it would give away pretty much all of the short story.
The author did a good job with both of the characters. Declan definitely came across as shy, and Shota was restrained while he was on the job as the receptionist. I thought they fit together as a couple as more was revealed about them.
The one problem I had with this book was the same problem I had with the other book I read by this author. She cuts off the ending abruptly. It makes the ending feel almost like a cliffhanger, although it isn't. Personal preference, I would have preferred a longer more drawn out ending.
Love in 24 Frames was a sweet, slow-paced romance that took place around the Christmas holiday. I could believe Declan and Shota as a couple. I give this book, 4 Stars.
