Kiss my Boots is the second chance love story of Quinn, a mechanic in her small Texas town, and Tate, the new town OB/GYN. I kind of loved that she is in a male profession and he is in a female dominated profession. Nice twist! I am going to do this review as I read, so you are getting my thoughts!
- This is VERY similar to book 1, Lost Rider in the trope. Q and Tate fell in love as teenagers, then he went off to college and never spoke to her again. Q stayed in town just like Leigh (from book 1) did, and now that the hero has returned, she struggles with her feelings of abandonment, love, and fear. So far, its pretty much the same book with different characters.
- Oh no...if this Ella chick turns out to be a 'bunny boiler' like I am thinking she might be, I will be super annoyed. She seems like the crazy type of girl who would travel thousands of miles to 'win' Tate 'back', or fake a pregnancy or something. How do guys not see that in girls?!?
- "I laugh dryly thinking about how corny my thoughts sound...". Yes, they sound VERY corny. Add to that the overuse of idioms and 'southern sayings' and weird analogies/metaphores, and the whole thing gets a little eye roll inducing. Hopeful that will die down as I read on.
- Hmmm.....Tate's reason for leaving without a word is a bit weak in my opinion. I mean, there was NO way he could have found to get word to Quinn? None....really? Hmmmm.
- Quinn sounds like every girl I know when it comes to trusting guys. She was heartbroken and terrified it will happen again. Its very relatable so I appreciate that.
- Okay, they kind of got over the drama that kept them apart and its only like 1/2 way through the book. I'm pretty happy about this!
- Its smooth sailing, fun, flirty times between these two and it actually turned into a lighter read!
- Drama Llama in the last like 10% but these two handled it really maturely. THANK GOD!
Overall, even though the book didn't start out great for me, I am happy with the way it all turned out. The miscommunication is dealt with pretty early on and the book mainly focuses on them falling back in love. I also loved seeing Quinn's relationship with her oldest brother Clay. It was sweet!
Side note: The covers for this series are STUNNING and I adore them! Aren't they beautiful!? I love the use of color and the sun behind the models. Just beautiful!
