Man Cuffed is the hilarious story of one out of work actress and one not-a-stripper cop. Meg and Mac are pretty funny and the story is pretty light throughout, and frankly, I needed that.
Meg was instantly likable! She is struggling with an early midlife crisis-she has returned home after failed attempts at acting and relationships. I really thought she was endearing. There is plenty of sparks between Meg and Mac, despite his amorous activities on the balcony with another girl (before he and Meg hook up). I was a little put off by that, but Meg wasn't. In fact, she was kind of impressed by her neighbor!
Man Cuffed gives us the fake relationship trope and I am always here for that! Mac needs a date to his sister's wedding and Meg is willing to oblige! I mean, she is an actress!
In true Rom-Com fashion, there isn't a LOT of angst in Man Cuffed, but there is a tad. Mac can be a bit of a commit-aphob which was a little annoying at times. Meg was kind of the leader in the relationship; Mac was super hot in bed, but out of it, there were times he was a little skittish. She is the one really bringing her a game in the flirting. However, its nothing that wrecks the story! There are plenty of swoon worthy moments to make up for Mac's dumb ones!!
