RELEASE BLITZ & REVIEW: Say It Ain't So by Lani Lynn Vale

 



Title: Say It Ain’t So
Author: Lani Lynn Vale
Release Date: September 8, 2020


Blurb


He should’ve never left his house. He should’ve stayed at home. He has a legitimate excuse—he’s running a fever and he’s fairly sure he’s developing pneumonia. He should have called in sick…but he doesn’t.

He goes to work, because his team is relying on him.

First, he has to sign about eight thousand calendars—all from women who purchased said calendars to benefit the Fallen Officer fundraiser. And when he’s done with that, he has to endure a television interview along with the rest of the SWAT team seeing as they made national news with their ‘Hot SWAT’ calendar that’s sold a million copies to women all over the world.

Needless to say, when Samuel Adams walks into the pharmacy hours later, he only has one thing on his mind. Ibuprofen.

Sadly, he never gets to the Ibuprofen. Mostly because before he gets there, he finds a junkie waving a gun around threatening to kill anybody that moves.

He’s running a fever. That has to be the reason that the girl in the corner begins cursing up a storm and drawing the junkie’s attention. Has to be.

***

Stop it, stop it, stop it!

She tells herself to take a deep breath. Tells herself that she needs to calm down. Tells herself that if she doesn’t get her act under control, things are going to get ugly.

And, of course, that’s when the curse words start flying.

The more nervous she gets, the worse her Tourette’s becomes. Which is, of course, why she stands up and gives the man a perfect target.

Thank God that the coughing giant in the corner makes the same move and saves her life.

And how does she repay him? By calling him every awful word in the dictionary.

Thank you, Tourette’s.

Caroline's Review

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

5 pew-pew-pew stars! Loved Sammy and Hastings' story!

"I liked that she was looking at me like I was a piece of chocolate cake she wanted to devour."

Samuel Adams first sees Hastings Hughes in the middle of a robbery in Walgreens, and she nearly gets them all killed with her Tourette's condition. The next time he sees her, she's nurses him through a fever. There's no denying the attraction between them but Hastings is far from hasty - she's reticent and unsure. After giving in to their desires, Hastings disappears on her travels, and Sammy has pretty much given up on anything blossoming between them. However, life has a way of springing surprises on them.

"I'm a f*ckin' loser for you already. So when I say you need to be gentle with me. I mean it. I'm halfway gone."

Sammy and Hastings were adorable together. I loved his protectiveness and the fact that he loved her for who she was. She was quirky and direct and didn't shy away from her Tourette's. I loved that he liked all these things about her, as well as the fact that he found her beautiful in every way. This story was laugh-out-loud, really sexy and heartwarming, as well as unexpected and heartbreaking. Loved it!
