paddlefoot55 's review for:
Sir Loin of Beef
by Vanessa Vale
ARC received for an honest review
I have to be honest with you - I only requested this book because of the name - it amused me and I thought why not.
And whilst I liked it, I didn't love it.
I was after a menage story, however it felt like more of the Duke show, it was all about him and Kaitlyn, and Jed was an afterthought. Which bugged me, because Jed was a lot nicer character IMO than Duke - but this could just be me.
For a short story, there was a quite a bit of back story, which I liked. It helped me get into the head of Kaitlyn. However I did want to know more about Duke and Jed before we met them today. I wanted to know more about his time on the rodeo circuit.
However, short stories can sometimes feel rushed, and that was how I felt with Sir Loin of Beef. Our characters went straight from Hi to I Love You in a heartbeat, and it made it feel a bit eyeroll-worthy to me. Sure, insta-lust I can get down with, but this trios instalove was just a little too much - again, this is probably just me.
My review has made it sound like I didn't like this at all, but that's not how it is. Sure, I had my issues with it, however the characters were enjoyable enough, and I will be going on to read more books in this series as it progresses.
