REVIEW: Wine Hard, Baby by Mimi Jean Pamfiloff




Title: Wine Hard, Baby (Stand Alone, book #6 of the OHellNo series)
Author Name: Mimi Jean Pamfiloff
Genre: Romantic Comedy
Release date: May 12th, 2020



Blurb:


From New York Times Bestseller Mimi Jean Pamfiloff comes an Enemies-to-Lovers, Romantic Comedy.


CAUTION: CONTAINS HOT COWBOY. Do not mix with wine. Avoid watching him do shirtless labor on hot days.


SIDE EFFECTS MAY INCLUDE: Feeling of extreme temptation, excessive drooling over his abs, elevated heart rate, and loss of coherent thoughts when in his presence.


My name is Camila Clark. And that sexy cowboy right there? The one with the devilish smile, twinkling brown eyes, and tattoos on his muscular arms? He’s Jed, the guy I turned down flat back in Texas. He just showed up here in Oregon at the winery where I work.


The question is why?


Not that it really matters. I have my reasons for staying away from all that manly temptation. Reasons he can’t possibly understand but seems determined to punish me for.


But the more I fight him, the more I learn about this mysterious, hot-as-hell cowboy. I just don’t know how much longer I can keep pretending to hate him.


The problem is, I’m technically engaged to a guy I’ve never met.



Caroline's Review
4 stars

I really enjoyed this romcom. It was pretty fast-paced, a little crazy, and has such a funny heroine.

"His stare is intense and carnal, maybe sprinkled with some concern, too."

Camila is savoring her freedom whilst living away from her loving but devoutly religious parents and avoiding an arranged marriage. She also needs to avoid men that her parents would never accept because although she wants to marry for love, she also wants someone who her parents would approve of. Not someone like the gorgeous Jed, no matter how much she's attracted to him. In an effort to push him away, she's callous and cruel towards him.

"There was just something about her nerdy smile, quick wit, and dirty mouth that pulled me in."

Jed is a simple guy who works hard but has a secret or two. He finds Camila absolutely gorgeous but the minute she opens her mouth, she tends to spew vitriol at him. He's baffled by the discrepancy between how she looks at him and what actually comes out of her mouth.

"I think about him and the volcano starts erupting - lust, want, worry, and the unshakable feeling that my world will blow up if I get any deeper."

I really enjoyed this story. Camila is a desperate woman trying to deny her attraction to Jed. She's nerdy and actually a good person and swears like a sailor, which is hilarious considering her religious upbringing! LOL Jed has the patience of a saint but also has a little mischievousness about him. Overall, I liked the pace of the story but I wished there'd been more relationship development between the two main characters. They almost went from nothing to something because Camila suddenly switched tracks. I would have liked to have seen them in more positive exchanges that really showed that they were falling in love. Otherwise, still a fun, amusing read.
