What do You think about Thank You For Riding (2013)?
Hands down, without a doubt, my favorite in the entire series. I love, love, love Maguire's writing. She has this amazing knack of bringing characters to life that make them seem real and approachable and relatable. I loved how Mark and Caitlin met. Their interaction had me grinning from ear to ear. As did all subsequent interactions. Seriously. Meg has a wonderful, magical way of making me cheese like a fool when I read any of her writing.The only thing I didn't like? Well, my e-book said I was at 83% when I actually finished the story. EPIC disappointment. I thought we still had another date coming between our H/h. Alas, she left me wanting more, which is better than me wishing it'd just end already.

Only flaw in this story is...that it is short! 4.5 ☆☆☆☆I gave it -0.5 ☆ because it could really be longer, has potential, I need a sequel! Meg Maguire, please write more Mark and Caitlin! And winter stories!It's cute, hot and congenial! I was a bit surprised how author managed to fit in so much in few chapters, but really, just as the story got better and better, it ENDED! :( “Here.” He spread his legs wider and patted the floor between them. “You’ll be warmer, and I promise I won’t grope you or anything.” Yes, because getting groped by a handsome, charming man hours after getting dumped by a workaholic iceberg was such a repulsive notion. Talking with Mark: "Women can’t resist a man with strong squeezing hands. Tells us you must be great at, oh, I don’t know…making juice. Opening jars. Crushing beer cans." Unique setting (train station) was so attractive,of course, we knew where it was leading, but still, it was hottttt!♥ Read it, you won't regret it.

Caitlin donates platelets in order to get away from her overly demanding job... no phones allowed, no email and no stress for just a few hours ever couple of weeks. She never expects to flirt with the donor across the aisle, especially because she has a boyfriend as hit and miss as their relationship might be. She doesn't look back as she grabs a snack and leaves. Fast forward to the dreaded company holiday party where she's unceremoniously dumped. Taking the train home she's spotted by none other than her blood donor flirtation, Mark Holly. What kind of trouble can these two get into while locked in a cold subway station? You'll have to read to find out! Maguire writes a wonderful heroine in Caitlin... she's witty and funny and I thoroughly enjoyed her in this story. For a quick, hot read definitely check this and the others in the Strangers on a Train novellas out! This review can be found on my blog, Fic Fare:
