Book Beginnings on Friday is now hosted by Rose City Reader. The Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice. Check out the links above for the rules and for the posts of the participants each week. Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.
Beginning:
Foley Sanders stared at the door, where minutes ago, one sexy, pissed off woman had stalked out of the garage.Friday 56:
When Jacob leaned closer to get a look, Eileen sighed. "You can clean 'em up, but you can't take 'em out."This week I am reading Roadside Assistance by Marie Harte. I got this review book from NetGalley. Here is the description from Amazon:
Underneath the axle grease and tats
He's a gentleman
Foley Sanders figured he'll always be content with a life of cars and casual hookups. Until a run-in with Cyn, a statuesque firecracker with a hate-on for men, leaves him bewitched and intrigued-much to her annoyance.
Maybe Cynthia Nichols was a little hard on Foley, that muscular, tattooed, super-hot mechanic next door. But she's tired of feeling defensive about her size and has sworn off men. She's got a new job, new life, perfect plan. Foley has trouble written all over him-no way is she going to fall for his charms.
Foley might look like a bad idea, but underneath, he's all gentleman. Too bad Cyn's not buying it. What's a bad boy to do when the goddess of his dreams won't give him the time of day?
Not my sort of book, but at least the cover is good looking. :)
ReplyDeleteYes, I'd read it just for that cover. Enjoy. Here's Dead in the Water by Irna van Zyl, which I'll be reading this weekend.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun read. Thanks for sharing, and here's mine: “I’VE GOT SAND IN ALL THE WRONG PLACES”
ReplyDeleteThis author is new to me. This seems like one I might enjoy.
ReplyDeleteAn appealing cover and story line. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good one! Happy Labor day weekend!
ReplyDeleteThis one isn't really my thing but I have to admit that I want to know what Eileen is talking about.
ReplyDeleteI like strong, statuesque female protagonists! Sounds like Foley has a lot of work ahead of him in winning over Cynthia. I'll add this book to my TBR collection.
ReplyDeleteMy Friday post features BAREFOOT AT SUNSET.
Not my style but I hope you are enjoying it. Happy Friday!
