A librarian and a fire fighter, yes please, sign me up..turns out I should have skipped the signing!!
I really liked book one in this series, alas book two was a disappointment. :(
Cowboy is a manwhore (of course he is), he's slept with every woman in town, and probably a few farm animals. How do I know this, because it is repeated ad nauseum through THE WHOLE FRIGGING BOOK! Not a chapter goes by without us having someone remind us of his horn dog ways..sigh.
Anna is an introverted, scared, virginal librarian (of course she is), of she had sex once before, but it was BAD BAD BAD, so now she spends her time reading romance books, watching porn, and practicing fallacio on bananas, you know, normal stuff a 20 something woman would do. (insert side eye sarcasm) Also fires seem to spontaneously combust in her presence!
The push/pull between these two was annoying as hell, the mystery was boring, and I totally didn't even care who the bad guy was by the end. And let's talk about her friends, my God, with friends like these people who needs enemies! They said she dressed like a grandma, was a mouse, was boring, they couldn't figure out what Cowboy saw in her, they reminded her continuously about how much of a horn dog her was..geez!
Lastly, let us speak about the fact that at the beginning of the book Cowboy doesn't want to get a library card because he doesn't want anyone to know his real name. Well guess what folks, you never get to know what the hell his real name is?! In the epilogue they are married, so I guess the preacher has to say "Do you cowboy take this banana loving harpy as your wife??"
Not good dude, just not good...
