A HOT policeman walks into a bar…

…SHE TRIED TO TAKE HIS PANTS OFF!!!

I can honestly say, that even if I was expecting a stripper to walk into a room, there is NO WAY I would try to take his pants off. That was by far one of the funniest first meetings I’ve read in a wee while. Man Cuffed was exactly the book I needed today. Sarina Bowen and Tanya Eby have again cracked me up, made me sigh and left me thoroughly satisfied. Yes, there were a few curveballs that had me sniffling, snarling and sneering, but mostly, I was reading with a smile on my face.

I have to get something off my chest though…

What the heck is going on with our heroes lately????

This is not the first book that I’ve read recently where the heroine is doing all the hard yards when it comes to the courtship phase. Sure, the hero still brings his *A* game to the bedroom but why the heck are these guys so afraid of LOVE??? What makes it even worse is that these heroes are mature aged men who are over the age of 35. Suddenly, every bloke seems scared of love, commitment and happy ever afters. They’ve been hurt by love and only looking for hook-ups because they’re too scared to put their heart on the line. The poor heroine ends up falling for a bloke that she must rehabilitate first. I know love is hard, but come off the grass, we need another hero like Liam (the hero from Boy Toy) to step up to the plate.

To be honest, when I started reading Man Cuffed I wasn’t sure how it would all play out. At first, I thought Meg was going to be a flighty actress reluctant to face reality. I was pleasantly surprised by Meg and found her to be realistic, sharp and witty. Then, we meet Mac…well, after that first meeting, we mostly HEAR Mac. Meg and Mac are neighbours and they have VERY thin walls. This made me a little uncomfortable for Meg, but soon I realised that Meg was not at all fazed by what she was hearing. It was almost like he was auditioning…and she was IMPRESSED.

So, after my first hesitation, everything was going swimmingly. Besides the little bugbear that I mentioned above, I really enjoyed reading Man Cuffed. Meg and Mac are great characters that I came to love. The additional characters we meet are very funny and I really hope that Cassidy and Lance get a story….OOOOH, maybe they could get a story TOGETHER?!?!? Oh my lordy, that would be funny – Ms Big Brain meets the Cosmo Reading Copper who studies what women want.

The chemistry between Meg and Mac jumps off the pages and I never doubted that they would be perfect together. Sparks were flying after their first touch and when they kiss for the first time, it was electric. It took a while but once Mac admits to his feelings, it doesn’t take long before he’s ready to cuff his Meg to him for life.

I read Man Cuffed in one sitting and I really enjoyed Mac and Meg’s journey to happiness. There were plenty of laughs, lots of sigh-worthy moments and sexy times that left me squirming. Yes, there were a couple of times that I was frustrated, but in the end, I was very satisfied that Meg and Mac had what it takes to make their relationship work forever.

If you’re looking for an entertaining read full of laughs, I highly recommend giving the Man Hands series a try.
