It was enough that it brought me out of the story.Īll in all, just skip this one and read one of her other AMAZING reads like War & Roses, Curve Ball, or Virgin Cowboy. I'm used to Kat Baxter books being way more together than this so I don't know what happened. I feel like he got a free pass and since what he did was pretty horrible, I was not a happy camper.īesides those things, there were quite a few typos that could have been caught with even one read through. Her inner dialogue once she reached the house was obnoxious as well.īrooks didn't suffer nearly enough for what he did. All this talk of how mad she was and independent she was and she just gives into him immediately.

There were a myriad of other problems too. Some of my issues are personal to me so I don't put a huge amount of emphasis on them like I really hate the second chance romance trope and friends to lovers has to be done really well for me to like it. I was excited for Maggie and Brooks story after reading War & Roses. this is by far my lowest rated Kat Baxter book and it pains me. Still, the idea that she still believes I didn’t want her, that I don’t want her … it kills me. I came into knowing that nothing I say or do is going to change that. Jack of Hearts is a sweet and steamy curvy girl romance featuring a smoking hot virgin hero and buxom pink-haired artist.I came into this marriage knowing I was the villain in this story. Still, when I hire Jack, I find myself wishing he’d get a little handsy with me. I’m not looking for the perfect guy, just the perfect handyman.

Granted the house needs a lot of work, I may be handy with an arc welder but I’ve got no skills with a hammer. Besides, the house I inherited from my grandmother has the perfect sculpting studio. I may be a little too weird and rebellious for a lot of folks my small town, but what can I say? This is home.

Sure enough, the town seems like the perfect town to put down roots, but it’s the vivacious and curvy local artist I really want to sink into. Instead, I head to Virginville, PA, a place my army buddy always described as the perfect place to live. Except I’m sure as hell not going to my hometown, that’s where my ex lives, and I lost patience for her drama a long time ago. After ten years serving my country, it’s time for me to head home.
