This one was surprisingly delightful. I wasn‘t expecting much from Jackson James because of the ‘feud‘ in the Winston series, but I thoroughly enjoyed, once again, the antics, humour and shenanigans. I‘ve yet to be disappointed by Penny Reid and I will jump at every chance to visit Green Valley and those bearded men. 😉

And with this second order, I‘m pretty caught up on the Winston Brothers series (was missing Beau) and the side stories that include prominent and side characters. My Reid purchases have been pretty steady lately and she‘s already taking up almost an entire shelf! These covers are probably my favourite. ❤️❤️ #recommendsday

I wavered between a so-so & pan but finally went with pan because I disliked Jackson. It wasn‘t just that he was over-the-top nice, he came across as a clueless virgin bumpkin when he supposedly was trying to live down a rep for being a ladies‘ man. But when his girlfriend invites him over in the middle of the night to “fix a pipe” & she‘s wearing a robe, he didn‘t know what that meant?! Seriously, WTF. 👇🏻

wanderinglynn Also, while there was chemistry between the two, there‘s no real conflict. All the conflict was caused by lack of communication. The story could have been 3 chapters had they just talked. But there was no external conflict and so I ultimately found the story rather boring. Plus, I hated Jackson. Nope, no thank you. 2y
