One word: hilarious. I didn’t expect a lot from a book entitled Bigfoot Hunters In Love, but was exactly what I had hoped for, a cute love story from an a well-respected author. As the cover suggests, this was written with tongue firmly in cheek.
Stuart and Jake take the word “adorable” to the max, with snappy dialogue and some delicious sex. Sweet Jake is a writer with the sort of problems I could totally identify with. His dog has run off and he’s anxious to find it, and Jake is the brawny Ranger determined to find and record the elusive Bigfoot. There is an instant chemistry between them which doesn’t feel at all forced, and an acknowledgement that not everyone in town would be comfortable with their burgeoning relationship.
This isn’t a long read, at 88 print pages, but packed full of funny scenarios (Stuart being chased naked through a pumpkin patch, in fact, any time Stuart loses his clothes, basically) and it’s all set against a woody New Hampshire, where Bigfoot has roamed for many years. There’s a good message at the end as well, not too preachy, but let’s say, very satisfying.
There’s not much more to say, other than this is a great, entertaining read for anyone who loves MM romance with added Bigfoot flavour. And has a sense of humour. Snuggle up by the fire and enjoy…
BLURB
When Stuart bought a house in the country, he thought he’d have some quiet time to write. The last thing he expected was to be chased through the forest in the middle of the night by something massive and hairy that can run on two legs. When he literally runs into a ranger named Jake, he learns the bizarre truth: he’s just had a Bigfoot sighting.
Jake rescues him, but Stuart soon discovers he hasn’t seen the last of Bigfoot. There’s a family of the creatures out there, and Jake has been tracking them for years through the state parks of New Hampshire. Soon Stuart finds himself caught up in Jake’s quest… and in very close quarters with the handsome ranger himself.
