MY REVIEW:
I really enjoyed this book. Yes, ok, it has a lot of very steamy scenes. But the story line behind that is so much more it is great story writing, you just don't want to put down. Casey is an ex- Marine injured in combat after being total military for 18 yrs. He is only 38 but has lived a lifetime because he has raised his only other living relative who is only 9 yrs. younger then him since Seth was 12 with the help of the then wife Susan who died of cancer 6 months after he was discharged due to his hip replacement. Now here we are, Seth has graduated Harvard & 2 yrs. have passed since Susan's death & Casey is ready to move on. So he moves in with Seth. Happens to meet Seth's girlfriend's mom & his world becomes brighter again. One small problem, she's 50. Not only that she is set in her ways, has a mind of her own, has been hurt before by men, has created her own empire, & craves companionship but is so very fearful. But Casey with his crude military ways & his brash youth brakes through a lot of chains she had locked her heart in. Not to mention her lust. The dynamics of her friends & family are so typical of today's households that it makes you laugh out loud all the stuff that happens. As well as makes you cry & angry. I found myself looking at Alexa & thinking you are a 50 yr. old accomplished woman act like it. Other times feeling extreme sorrow for her & others just cracking up. The twist & turns are many in this book but very worth reading.
