Sex in the Sticks

by Sawyer Bennett

[Eve1972]

This is one of those bizarre covers that have absolutely NOTHING to do with the book. The model on the cover looks NOTHING like I pictured the hero.

I guess I am in the minority with this one. It was just OK for me. Oh, it was well written (if a little predictable) and very funny. I enjoyed the small town feel of it. There wasn't any OW/OM drama. Not much angst until near the end. It also had a great cast of secondary characters and some hot sex scenes.



My issue was mainly with the main characters. I liked Valentine's personality. She treated people kindly to their faces, but the whole "BLOG" angle didn't sit right with me. Everyone treated her with kindness, and the way she paints them on her blog wasn't very nice. Not to mention sharing private details about her and Logan. Which I thought was particularly disgusting. AND I found it HIGHLY improbable that a supposed big name blogger like her would put down the name of the town, and specifically Logan's occupation (especially since he was the ONLY chief) for everyone on the internet to read.

And while I understood Logan's initial reaction to finding out she was sharing details and writing about the town his continued asshole behavior after she apologized soured me on him. To be honest, by the end I felt HE needed to be the one groveling to get HER back.

Like I said though I seem to be in the minority with this one. Maybe I am just in a bad mood or something..who knows. *lol* I'll be keeping my eye out for the next book because like I said except for the main characters I found the writing very good.
