e-ARC BR: The Foxe & The Hound – R.S. Grey

Blurb

A full-length STANDALONE romantic comedy from USA TODAY bestselling author R.S. Grey.

When your life is a hot mess at twenty, it’s cute. At twenty-seven…well, not so much.

It’s just that my lofty dreams—making it as a real estate agent, paying rent on time, showering daily—have stayed just that: dreams. Oh, and love? I’ve decided love might be a little ambitious for me at the moment. Instead, I’ve settled for the two guys who will never leave me: Ben & Jerry.

That is, until Dr. Adam Foxe takes up residence as the town’s new vet.

With his strong jaw, easy confidence, and form-fitting scrubs, it’s not long before every housewife in Hamilton is dragging neglected tomcats in for weekly checkups.

Like everyone else, I’m intrigued. Even after I spoil my chance at a good first impression, he still offers me a proposition I can’t refuse: play his girlfriend at a family function and he’ll hire me as his real estate agent. Welcome to love in the 21st century.

It’s too bad I underestimated Adam’s irresistible charm and the undeniable attraction that burns between us. The day he pins me to the wall and silences me with a kiss, the line between reality and ruse begins to blur. Every teasing touch brings me to my knees. Every kiss promises more.

It looks like my hot mess of a life is about to get a little hotter.

Thoughts

R.S Grey is fast becoming one of my favorite author’s. I’m so honored to have been chosen to receive an ARC of this book.

Story

This is a stand alone story but it does feature character’s from Any Thing You Can Do.

It’s told in the first person from both Madeline and Adams perspectives. I writing style was very easy to read and I managed to finish this book in one day.

I really enjoyed the chemistry between Madeline and Adam, I thought the pace that they fell in love was very well done. All the comedic elements of this book were executed perfectly. It had me laughing right to the very end!

Characters

Madeline, I really liked how realistic her character was, she faced real everyday struggles, staying afloat at work and paying rent on time among other things. The way in which she met Adam had me in stitches it was brilliant!

Adam, I thought his character was very charming. His conflicted feelings about Madeline were entertaining no end. I was a little dubious about the way he was acting in the beginning because he was a little bit of a jerk to Madeline, but as the story went it on in became clear that this was because he was fighting feelings for her.
