Book Review: Live Love Lasso

 

LEMON

I screwed up my first solo potion and now the customer is covered in hives. If that disaster wasn’t bad enough, knowing it might get my family’s potions house gobbled up by a competitor is the icing on the cake. What I didn’t expect was for my father to ship me off to the Wild West monster haven of Pine Gulch as punishment. He calls it an opportunity to learn. Pfft. Pine Gulch is a temporary setback—I’ll get back to the city in a New York minute.

Except things don’t go as planned when a mysterious sickness befalls the haven’s animals. Before I know it I’m smack dab in the middle of an investigation. Unfortunately, Furyon Zayle, the ranger in charge of the investigation, is a smoking-hot dark elf with an unnatural amount of charm. Him staring at me might be hot if I wasn’t being accused of somehow manufacturing the illness.

I’m a fish out of water in the worst possible way, but the pull between Furyon and me is stronger than the threat of my guilt. He introduces me to the beautiful corners of Pine Gulch—hidden pumpkin mazes, a herd of wild mustangs, a magical auction house, and the saucy town herself.

Our connection deepens as I start to fall in love with the wildness of this country haven and its people…one specifically. But good things don’t last as the investigation closes in on me. I know I’m innocent, but can Furyon and I find the culprit before I end up behind bars?


My Review

If Lemon had not ruined one of her potions and it had not been given to a high-profile client, she would never have been sent to Pine Gulch. It is there she Lemon meets Furyon. 

Ahh, these two had me laughing the whole time. Furyon gave me that grumpy vibe in the beginning and seeing Lemon push his buttons with her witty comments was hilarious. As the story progressed and these two spent more time together, the heat level rose.

I enjoyed this fun, cozy monster romance. This book is a good introduction to this new series from Hazel Mack. I look forward to visiting Pine Gulch again with the next book. I "lasso" this book.
