Sidecar Crush by Claire KingsleyMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
And so this kooky series continues ...
This book features Jameson Bodine, the quiet brother who makes sculptures from scrap metal and takes place shortly after the events in the first book, although long before the epilogue to that book.
Leah Mae Larkin was Jameson's childhood friend, the two of them climbed trees, swam in the lake and were each other's best friend. Leah Mae was the only person who understood Jameson's crushing shyness and was the only one who could make him forget his nerves. Now, she's known as Leah Larkin and she's a successful model turned reality TV star, engaged to her agent, Kelvin. Kelvin and Leah return to Bootleg Springs to inform her father of their engagement but once home Leah finds herself questioning her career and life choices.
As the producers edit the footage of her TV show to make her look incompetent and as if she is having an affair with a married co-star Leah takes shelter in her home town and reconnects with her childhood friend. But as Leah's notoriety meets the Bodine family secret all the publicity rebounds on Bootleg Springs and Jameson's family.
This was a nice change of pace from the first book - don't worry, Scarlett still plays a big part in this book - Leah Mae and Jameson are a very different couple with very different issues, less humour and more true love.
Can't wait to see who gets the next book - will it be Cassidy and Bowie, will it be Gibson or Jonah? I can't help but look at each single female (or male) and wonder is it her/him? When is it published?
