James is the classic grump with a soft, gooey center. I love the setting, the storyline, and the characters. But then again, I’m pretty sure I say that with each new book 😍 I received a complimentary copy of the book but a positive review was not required.
Cannot wait for Val and Chevy's story next! TL DR - I absolutely, positively and completely ADORE James and Winnie's brilliantly witty and swoony love story and you all NEED to go read it. Is it creepy that I wish she were real so we could be best friends?įor the scrollers, let me just sum up my review of The Bluff in one sentence:
😂 She is witty, intelligent, determined, and the perfect match for James. Winnie is full of sass and spunk and I love that she is not afraid to poke the sleeping bear. 👫fabulous side characters from Sheet Cake (the town that James' dad bought)Īnd you have a 10⭐ winner that showcases the authors ability to write heartfelt love stories that also make you laugh and smile.Ĭan I just tell you how much I love James and Winnie?ĭarcy needs to hand in his badge because James is the true grump to end all grumps. 🛏️a one-bed trope (while keeping things sweet and clean!) Clair book, you get swoony, sizzling chemistry, flirty banter, and too many laugh-out-loud scenes to count. What do you get when you take a handsome, grumpy boss and put him in forced proximity with his bright, sunshiney employee? The whole scene was too much, too unbelievable, too everything. I was cringing when it described how people brought their unleashed dogs to a public feast because it seems way unsanitary and even the best of dogs can’t resist going after table food. It was something out of a bad slapstick comedy movie. They pushed him to open a brewery, on a very short time table, that he didn’t even want (or did he want? It’s a little unclear and unresolved).Ħ. They try to butt in rather than stepping back and trying to understand.
They know he can’t take a joke yet they joke with him. He cheated on the fiancée too and will probably do it again so SAY SOMETHING!ĥ. Why doesn’t Winnie say anything to his fiancée? Look out for other women and all that. Dale’s infidelity was perhaps not we’ll handled. She knows things come at a bad time yet she stays on the track of pushing too far.Ĥ. He even throws a guy who is talking to Winnie into a pool.ģ. James and Winnie aren’t in a relationship and yet he is controlling and possessive. Instead, he was just really rude a lot of the time and didn’t get any help for his issues.Ģ. I was hoping that we’d have some great uncovering to why James is so broody or that there’d be discussion about his anxiety or something but there wasn’t. I love a good broody silent type but not a rude broody silent type.
I was really looking forward to this and I enjoyed the first bit of the book and I look forward to reading other books in the series but there were a few turnoffs for me:ġ.
