Fresh Fiction Review

Hang Tough

Reviewed by Annie Tegelan

Romance Erotica Sensual

HANG TOUGH is the eighth book in the Blacktop Cowboys series and it features Tobin Hale and Jade Evans. When Jade comes to visit her grandmother, Garnet she encounter Tobin and they immediately start this incessant bickering. If you've read Lorelei James before then you know that she's used this love/hate trope before. Usually I think she does a good job of building a relationship from virtually nothing but I found it a bit odd how intense the hatred was between Tobin and Jade from the first moment they met. Jade came across as quite rude in some cases and I wasn't sure I could forgive some of the things she said or the assumptions she made about Tobin. Garnet is obviously a major part of this book. She acts as the comic relief and also the mediator in this book. I liked her character but she is also quite over the top. There were some scenes where I think she commanded the readers attention, taking away from the romance and other characters. As you can expect, this series is packed full with intense sex scenes. I wouldn't consider any of the characters shy in the bedroom and I think that's the key to any Erotic Romance series but particularly this one. Although they started with intensely disliking each other, they sure have amazing chemistry. HANG TOUGH will no question make you want to rope in a cowboy for yourself. If only we were all as lucky as Jade to have a Tobin of our own.

SUMMARY

In the new Blacktop Cowboys® novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Wrapped and Strapped, one woman learns that when it comes to cowboys, looks can be deceiving... When Tobin Hale stepped in to stop Garnet Evans's son from railroading her out of her own home, he knew moving in with his favorite Mud Lily could be seen as strange. But nothing prepared him for the arrival of Garnet's fiery, beautiful granddaughter, Jade—or her assumption that he's up to no good... While Tobin might be the hottest man Jade Evans has ever seen, his physical attributes won't distract her from protecting her grandma from his sweet-talking ways. But the stubborn cowboy digs in his boot heels and refuses to leave. Stuck in close quarters together, Jade learns Tobin is the real deal—a hardworking, fiercely loyal man and she's the one in danger of losing her heart. And just when he was prepared to leave Muddy Gap behind, Tobin may have found the kind of woman worth sticking around for...
