ARC received for an honest review

Oy, it pains me to say it, but Smitty's Sheriff was a miss for me.

I have adored everything I have ready by Cardeno C to date, but this one just didn't do it for me.

I just couldn't with either of our MC's, Richard or Todd. I felt Richard to be very condescending, patronising and just downright unlikable.

Todd, whilst at times I really liked him, other times he felt very immature and whiney and childish. I thought at first it was the age difference that made me feel this way, but nope, they would have been the same if they were the same age.

Todd really needed to stop being a doormat and grow a pair.

Rich really needed to stop being a d!ck.

Gah, this pair frustrated me so much as I know that they would have been a great couple if they didnt infuriate me so much whilst read. This is the first time that I considered DNFing a Cardeno C book, and that makes me sad.

But I will be right there waiting when the next book is released.
