Cletus is by far my favorite. Jennifer is the perfect complement to the silent killer that is Cletus Win Disclaimer: I am an AVID Penny Reid fan. Even novels which have premises I don’t typically enjoy, I love. But when Penny stated she was going to write a novel with Cletus as the romantic interest, my anxiety shot through the roof. This is Cletus. This is the man larger than life, but shrouding himself in a hill Billy guise. He is the man with immense covert machinations, but a bigger sense of justice driving them. In essence Cletus is what all of us wishes we could do (the ego of our psyche). So, his romantic interest also, would have to be larger than life. What woman could tame Cletus? I don’t want to go into too much detail because I don’t want to post any spoilers, but this book baffles me in excellent ways. How’d that happen? - How did I go from enjoying Jennifer (the heroine) to being annoyed by her, to smirking with her, to befriending her all within the first 1/3 of the book. And from that point on, I kept on loving her. Seriously, that girl kept on getting better. This book is epic, like EPIC - Right when I thought I knew where the book was going, it transformed into something I wasn’t expecting. And the great thing was, there was no stupidity. For the amount of plot and the character development, it really should have been Gone with The Wind long. It wasn’t, but yet, the story was so rich and fulfilling, like the most decadent cake ever. I want to go into more detail, but once again, I’m not spoiling it for anyone. All in the family - When some authors write a series, it’s almost a chore to read because they re-introduce couples, or make their entrance into the story seem forced, like the Seinfeld finale. With Beard, it flowed, and more importantly, the secondary characters added so much richness to the plot. You have to love a family who enjoys fine sausage, and shares their sausage with the community. Geeky Heart - I love stories where I feel I grow as a person, and Jennifer is the Janie kind of nerdy who makes the ride fun. She is more than she appears. She has depth and skills no one knows about. This is a story about looking beneath the surface, breaking out of comfort zones, owning who you are, and finding your tribe. Ms. Reid, I adore your work for every bad day I have had this summer your words have given me a smile. So, in summary, I loved it. It is Cletus-worthy, which is saying a lot. While Jethro/ Sienna is still my favorite pairing in this series, I absolutely loved Cletus' shenanigans and learning more about what the Banana Cake Queen gets up to when she's not baking. They seemed like an unlikely pairing--timid Jenn, who's seemed pretty bland (outside of the kitchen anyway) in all her cameos in prior books with outspoken, witty, shifty Cletus? But I've learned not to question Ms. Penny when she says folks belong together, and I'm glad I gave it a shot! I love books where we see major character development, as well as when there are plot twists that keep me from being able to predict what will happen next. This book delivered on both fronts--Jenn at the end of the book seemed so much more three-dimensional, and Cletus remains the twist-iest of the twisty. Looking forward to more cameos from both these two in future books! Bellissimo, mi è piaciuto moltissimo così come i due protagonisti Cletus e Jennifer due persone diversissime ma del tutto complementari che mi hanno completamente conquistato. Una serie che diventa ad ogni libro sempre più intrigante, avvincente e piacevole da leggere. Adesso aspetto con curiosità di leggere anche degli altri tre fratelli Winston. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

From the NEW YORK TIMES, WALL STREET JOURNAL, & USA TODAY bestselling series. Jennifer Sylvester wants one thing, and that one thing is NOT to be Tennessee's reigning Banana Cake Queen. Ever the perpetual good girl and obedient daughter, Jennifer is buckling under the weight of her social media celebrity, her mother's ambitions, and her father's puritanical mandates. Jennifer is officially desperate. And desperate times call for Cletus Winston. Cletus Winston is a puzzle wrapped in a mystery covered in conundrum sauce, and now he's in a pickle. Despite being convinced of his own omniscience, extortion by the exalted Banana Cake Queen of Green Valley has taken him completely by surprise. So. . . what's a maniacal mastermind to do? Likely, the last thing you expect. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

Cletus’ and Jeni’s story was just chaotic. It’s a wild ride but I enjoyed every second of it. ( )
