The First Review - Seduction and Snacks by Tara Sivec

The Blurb:

Claire is a twenty-something, single mom that grudgingly helps her best friend sell sex toys while she attempts to make enough money to start her own business to give her foul-mouthed, but extremely loveable (when he's asleep) toddler a better life.  

When Carter, the one-night-stand from her past that changed her life forever, shows up in her hometown bar without any recollection of her besides her unique chocolate scent, Claire will make it a point that he remembers her this time.  

With Carter's undisguised shock at suddenly finding out he has a four-year-old son and Claire's panic that her stretch marks and slim to none bedroom experience will send the man of her dreams heading for the hills, the pair will do whatever they can to get their happily ever after.

Warning: contains explicit sex, profanity and enough sarcasm to choke a horse.

My Review:

This book should come with a warning, a bit like the one in Gremlins.  You know the one;

Do not get wet

Do not feed after midnight

Do not read on a train or in the staff canteen.......

I have honestly never laughed as much as I did when reading Seduction and Snacks.  It was that really embarrassing guffaw followed by several, equally embarrassing snorts. (Thanks sooo much Ms Sivec.)

Whether is was Gavin, the brilliantly foul mouthed but lovable four year old.

"Ga ga ah-ah-ahhhhh, rama llama llama, want your bad bromance."

Or the other well rounded, believable band of characters who formed a strong bond over love, sex toys and alcohol (and who reminded me far too much of my friends and I).

There were a few grammatical errors (but then, you'll find them all through this review and unless it's really bad then they don't bother me).

The main love story between Claire and Carter is what sold it to me.  Two people who met at a frat party, played Beer Pong, had sex and never thought they'd see each other again.... fate had other ideas  It was in no way slushy, often hilarious, sometimes stalkerish but ultimately heart meltingly lovely.

My rating?  5 out of 5.
