Great, heart-warming characters. Very interesting plot. Vivid descriptions. I felt every emotion. Just enough romance. Kept me intrigued from the first page to the last. Simply a GREAT read!
*I received a complimentary ARC of this book in order to read and provide a voluntary, unbiased and honest review, should I choose to do so.
Wanderlust did not work for me, thanks to one of the most obnoxious heroines I've had the displeasure of reading lately, and a lot of cheesy wording.
Meg's been having erotic dreams about her best friend, Cory, for awhile now, but they'll have to stay just that - dreams, because she's not about to risk their friendship for the man who left her 4 years ago to enlist in the military. Sure, she's happy he's back in town, but it's too bad their timing is bad because she's about had it with small town living and she wants out. When Cory gets wind of her and her cousin's plans to go on a single's cruise, he and his brother (her cousin's boyfriend) decide to join them when they find out Meg had booked them on a senior's single's cruise. Oops.
About the only thing Wanderlust had going for it is Cory. He's a sweetheart, but a tad dull. Meg, on the other hand, is obnoxious, self-absorbed, and quite frankly, a b. And then there's the wording in the steamy scenes, and there were A LOT of steamy scenes. If the author had used the word cream one more time, I think I would have puked. Come on, there are better, and more, words she could have used than that word in every single scene, and more than once in every scene. Sigh...
So, horrible heroine, cheesy, repetitive wording, no character and relationship development, all equals to a big fat no for me.
Meg Snow had a crush on her best friend Cory Traven but he left her to travel the world with the military. She can’t wait to leave small town Milcott, South Dakota so she has to fight her attraction to Cory. There’s no way she is being tied down when she is ready to escape. Cory can’t let her leave him without a fight. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
