Hang Tough (Blacktop Cowboys #8) by Lorelei James

Review:

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.

I always like to mention how rare five star ratings are in connection with my reviews because it really kind of says how much I either enjoyed the book or how much it affected me on a personal level.

For those who are familiar with my blog I typically equate four star ratings with five stars but five stars set apart those that in my opinion are so much more. Granted everyone will have their own opinion about Hang Tough, some of you will love it some of you won't love it as much but for me I really did.

I loved Lorelei's descriptive imagery in this book, as a writer she has done a great job setting a scene and creating personalities in her cast that appealed to me.

What I mean by cast is obviously the characters in an authors book but I like to think of it as a cast because once in awhile there are just those books that feel alive to me in my mind that play just like a film. I see the people, I feel them and that's what Hang Tough did for me.

I appreciated that between the h/h that there was plenty of sexual dynamic going on without the entire book just being filler between all the sex. We get more personal journey and action this time around along with our more steamier scenes.

Thank you Lorelei for breathing both life and passion together and balancing them out.

I also got a good kick out of the whole magnum hung like a horse three pump chump action. He can be well endowed but that don't mean he's impressive when it boils down to *bang bang bang - ding - done.*

I don't think I laughed so hard as I did when I read that but atleast Tobin and Jade seemed impressed.

Still all the chuckles aside I liked the personal and emotional journey both Tobin and Jade were on, I liked that they got through the hard places and were strong as a couple as they were as individuals. Thank you for sharing them with the rest of us.
