Sweet Southern Trouble is an adult sports romance by author Michele Summers. This is the first book I have had the pleasure of reading by Mrs. Summers, but it certainly will not be the last. I loved Sweet Southern Trouble. It was the kind of book that allowed me to totally escape from the real world. I was very absorbed in this book late into the night and even in the morning before I drove to work. I just had to finish it! And I certainly cannot say that about all books I read. It doesn't look like Sweet Southern Trouble is going to be a series, but I really really wish it would be. I got to know Q and so many of the other football players well enough. I want them to have their own stories! Please, make that happen!

Sweet Southern Trouble is a standalone romance novel told in dual narrative between Marabelle and Nick. Marabelle is like a force of nature. I loved watching her tenacity and pure spirited-ness knock Nick off balance more times than I can count. I loved that Nick was so enamored with her feisty nature. I loved how well rounded Marabelle was too. She is a great cook and a fierce tennis player. I loved that we got to explore so many different sides of Marabelle. She was a really interesting (in a great way!) character.

And Nick. Oh Nick. He is as loyal as they come. Even throughout the whole fake charade fiasco they had going on, Nick was as awesome as can be to Marabelle, or Tinker Bell as he called her. I loved seeing what a great guy he was. By the time I finished this book, I had a major crush on Nick. I want him all for myself.
Bottom line: Sweet Southern Trouble was a funny, heartwarming, and really well done standalone romance novel. I loved getting to know all of the characters, I was totally rooting for the main characters, and the secondary characters were a hoot and a half. I want all of the guys on the football team to get their own story. I just love them! if you are looking for a great romance, check out Sweet Southern Trouble.
