Audiobook Review On Snow Falling On Bluegrass, (Bluegrass #3)
Rated it
An unprecedented snowstorm smothers half of Kentucky and knocks out the power, closes the roads, and generally shuts down the state. Luckily, the lodge has working fireplaces and enough food to keep the staff from turning on each other like something out of The Shining. Kelsey wouldn’t mind being stuck inside if it wasn’t for the tension with her not-so-secret crush, Charlie, the office’s statistician. But handsome Ranger Luke, the lodge’s only employee on hand, is there to take Kelsey’s mind off her discomfort.
Even though this weekend is supposed to be a planning session for KTC, Kelsey can’t help her mind from wandering and finds herself conflicted over Luke and Charlie. Someone’s love will keep her warm, but whose will it be?
The third
book in the Bluegrass series focuses on Kelsey, the executive assistant
to Sadie, at the Kentucky Tourism Commission. Sadie has organized an
office winter retreat that will leave you laughing, crying, and wishing
you worked with this group of highly dysfunctional adults!
Kelsey
has been living with her boyfriend Darrel for years, and no one seems
to be able to see what she see's in this loser. What Darrel does all day
is not work, play video games, and charge unnecessary yet expensive
items to Kelsey's credit cards. On top of that lovely big picture I just
drew, he keeps Kelsey in this constant state of insecurity and self
loathing to keep her from leaving him. Prince Charming he is not. At the
office, there is Charley, he is the statistics guy and Kelsey has been
head over heels for him for years now. He is pretty nerdy, but in a sexy
way that makes her want to have crazy monkey sex with him! Their back
and forth non-flirting has caused some serious sexual tension, and has
the entire office praying Darrel falls into a black hole so those two
crazy kids can hook up once and for all. Will the weekend retreat
provide cupid enough time, or will he be shot down and killed by the
abominable snowman?
I
was hoping this book would be about Kelsey, because man, Darrel is the
biggest piece of shit and I was just waiting for his day of reckoning to
come! So said piece of shit actually broke up with Kelsey for some
neighbor slut just weeks before the retreat, but Kelsey kept it quiet.
Well, I would too! So when she gathers with her co-workers for this damn
retreat it couldn't have come at a better time for her. During the trip
she planned on regrouping and finally starting to move on, but others
had different ideas. The first and foremost offender is her own mother,
who keeps screaming at her she needs a man, any man to save face. Gina
the office bitch who is constantly throwing herself on everyone and
spreading false rumors. Luke the Park Ranger/Resort caretaker putting
the moves on her while she is trying to get close to Charley. And last
but not least Charley, for pushing her away and acting like he doesn't
even want to be her friend. With the help of Bonnie and Will's secret
rendezvous, and Josh's constant interruptions it's no wonder anyone
could get together in the enormous resort that had three floors with
just a dozen or so people in it.
I
loved the snowpocalypse scenario the group was forced into. It created
the perfect storm with all the moments and characters. Throwing a
surprise on Darrel orchestrated by her neighbors that she so lovingly
referred to as “The Lost Boys” was brilliant! I can't stop laughing at
the ending, and wishing I had my own Lost Boys. Molly Harper has outdone
herself again, thanks!
