​Jake

I’ve been searching for Mrs. Plaid Man my whole life, but I always miss out. I’m the Big Slick, so close to winning, but another hand always wins. I’m too slow to react. That’s how I missed out on a relationship with Lindsey, and part of the reason I had to move to this small town. But now I think I’ve finally found her. But she doesn’t seem to remember me, no matter how many times I talk to her. And let me tell you, there’s only so many times a man can get his ass kicked by a woman.



I’m a stay at home mom that loves to read. Some of my favorite titles are Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Horatio Hornblower. I started writing when I was trying to come up with suggestions on ways I could help bring in some extra money. I came up with the idea that I could donate plasma because you could earn an extra $500/month. My husband responded with, “No. Find something else. Write a blog. Write a book.” I didn’t think I had anything to share on blog that a thousand other mothers hadn’t already thought of. I decided to take his challenge seriously and sat down to write my first book, Jack. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed writing. From there, the stories continued to flow and I haven’t been able to stop. I hope my readers enjoy my books as much as I enjoy writing them. Between reading, writing, and taking care of three small kids, my days are quite full.

MY REVIEW:

Hilarious fun and sexy romance ensues when Jake aka Plaid Man finds his lady love. I love these crazy nicknames that never go away like Jake stuck with Plaid Man due to his love for his plaid shirts. I loved seeing behind the shirt to learn all about Plaid Man. I certainly didn’t think he would turn out to be a sexy hunk but swoon! Lumbersexual deluxe as the construction worker runs into the woman from the previous story that wore his shirt, or so he thought. Yup, the woman from the campground crosses paths with Jake and he’s intrigued. Hilarity results as poor Jake pays the price for engaging the wrong women. It’s a group of sisters that look alike much to Jake’s chagrin. But it’s the beautiful Elle that has his attention. She’s part of a huge family with an interesting background and insane antics. Elle is the opposite of the sexy outdoorsman but the attraction is hot. Jake’s enamored and ready to take on their differences as well as her intrusive family. I love this crazy Slovak family that’s introduced in the story and I can only hope this interesting bunch gets a series. They’re too bazaar to be a one and done with the hints of the Czech mafia and gangs with the dangerous brothers. They bring Jake into the fold with the Slovak old world customs and courting practices. This story has all the poker guys, even the deadly Antonio, coming to Jake’s aid when he needs advice. Those poker games are so much fun as the Cortell brothers throw out crazy ideas. The lovely Jo is also in the mix as a good friend to Jake and a continuation of the previous story as a participant of that fateful camping encounter. There’s tons of drama between Elle’s family and Jake suffering a loss that causes him to rethink his relationship with Elle. I loved this addition to this fabulous series with a wonderful cast of characters and a terrific family and friends atmosphere. Sexy romance is front and center without very much town drama like some of the other stories in the series. One of my favs. Loved it!
