BLURB:
The camping trip from hell may be the first stop on the road to happily-ever-after in Rough Terrain, the final book in Annabeth Albert’s critically acclaimed, fan-favorite Out of Uniform series.
Navy SEAL Renzo Bianchi has a soft spot for Canaan Finley, and not only because the man makes a mean smoothie. He’s the first guy to get Renzo’s motor revving in a long time. But when he agrees to Canaan’s insane charade—one all-access fake boyfriend, coming right up—he never expects more than a fling.
Creating a hot Italian SEAL boyfriend to save face seemed like a good idea…until his friends called Canaan’s bluff. Now he’s setting off into the woods with the very man who inspired his deception, and Canaan is not the outdoorsy type. The sparks are already flying when a flash flood separates them from their group, leaving Renzo and Canaan very much trapped…very much alone in the wilderness.
Working together to come up with a plan for survival is sexier than either of them expects. But back in the real world, being a couple is bringing its own set of hazards…
REVIEW:
Let’s see…Renzo Bianchi…this young man who is just as gorgeous as can be and is a really good guy. Renzo has just a couple of hard things in his life that make him feel not as amazing as he is. Renzo hails from Philly and sends most of his money home in order to take care of his family. Renzo is really a good guy. I like that he takes care of his family. I liked getting to know why he does what he does. I like that he has a small social media presence. That the one he has is for doing workout videos to inspire people to get into shape and be the best that they can be. I have to say that he really is really into living such dedicated lifestyle. Renzo is carrying guilt for a tragic accident that happened when he was younger and feels that he needs to be perfect at everything. But the strain of trying to be perfect and the good son, yeah…it’s starting to really wear thin for him and it effects how he lives his life.
Canaan Finley…this young man who is the son of a teenage mom and lived with his grandparents who raised him, hasn’t had a bad life. He was in a band for years with some school friends and when his family needed him, he walked away from all of that to be there for his family. Again, a really good man who will do anything for his family. I really have to say that I liked Canaan. I loved that he was in school and working and just being there for his grandfather. I liked that he wasn’t really bitter about leaving the band as he found another course for his journey.
I have to say that I really liked that our MC’s. I liked them together…I liked them as individuals. They have such good energy and are so damn sweet together. I’ve not read this series before, but I have to tell you…I’m going to get them ALL!! Annabeth did such a wonderful job really pulling me into the story and feeling every emotion that the characters felt. I was there with them and I was hurt when they hurt.
Now, the sexy times in this story were sweet and sexy at the same time. I think that was what these two characters needed. I liked that they didn’t just jump into bed with each other, they took a bit of time and got to know each other. I really liked that it helped to make the sexy times even more special.
This was a great book and I’m so damn happy to have gotten the chance to read this book and to get myself into another series of military men.
Go and get this book!!! You won’t be Disappointed!!
