REVIEW: The Foxe and The Hound by 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.

REVIEW

Let me vent this out right now, the ONLY thing that annoyed me about this book was the timings of which the dog grew up. (This is how fussy I am) So the puppy is Bernese Mountain Dog, only a few weeks old given up by it's owner because it was too crazy. 1. 3-4 week old puppies are not crazy, they literally sleep all the time! 2. That puppy should still be with it's mother. Next, she has the puppy for a few more weeks which makes it between 6-8 weeks and it's apparently the size of a small labrador and capable of knocking down a fully grown man. Hmm... not quite, unless the man is on roller blades perhaps. Also she says the puppy is strong enough that she can't keep hold of the lead. This 2 month old puppy would literally be this big...

Seriously... how weak is this women if she can't keep hold of this little fluff ball?!?! It's odd though because other things seemed so well researched I figured the author must have one herself.

So that was my only gripe, I nearly gave up because of the timings being completely wrong but I persevered and I did actually enjoy the book a lot! It was very funny and the characters were likeable and had depth. I liked that Madeline was independent although struggling, she has a great zest about her! The chemistry between her and Adam was great!! It was a nice easy read once I let go of my annoyance and I'd definitely read more of RS Grey. It was so good to read a book centred around a dog. I'd like more books centred around dogs please! :D
