BLURB:
Sassy-mouthed Stevie Devore has always had a crush on the local fire chief. Gorgeous silver fox, Evan Paige, is way out of Stevie’s league, however, not to mention the chief has always been a ladies’ man, but when Stevie turns twenty-one, he decides he’s tired of only daydreaming about Evan. He wants a real taste of that sugar daddy, even if it means turning the flirt factor up a notch or ten to make it happen. This 36k word story has pee-in-your-pants humor, peel-the-paint-off-the-walls steam, and a smidgie-poo of hand-on-chest swooning.
REVIEW:
A sassy virgin and a fire chief. It sure has the potential for some real fireworks. Stevie is the town flirt and is known for turning his charms on everything’s that’s alive. This time he has a target, the fire chief whom he’s had his eyes on for a while now. Ad hopefully the Chief will introduce him to the wonders of sex and love making. Stevie and Evan’s relationship didn’t feel quite right to me. It felt off in some way. Not only that, they felt off, a bit too inconsistent for it to make sense.
This series have been a bit of a hit or miss for me lately, some of the shine has been dimmed, and this is true for this short story as well. It started off really good, it was fun, quirky and bouncy. There was some sass to it. But then… something happened and it all just faded into something lukewarm to fizzle out completely.
I’ve listen to and loved Lucy Lennox and Michael Pauley in the past, you know I have. But they just didn’t work for me with Flirt. I couldn’t get into Pauley’s narration and the story didn’t hold my interest for very long. The sad part is that I know that they can, and have, created magical stories but this one just didn’t hold up to the prior standard. Pauley wasn’t as engaging as he usually is and just didn’t bring the book to life.
