Review Tour: Stranded (In Midsummer #1) by Jessica Frances

Title: Stranded
Series: In Midsummer #1
Author: Jessica Frances
Genre: M/M Mystery Romance
Release Date: May 29, 2020
One small town. One hot sheriff. One night of passion. One massive cold shoulder. One murder. One suspect. One chance.

I’m furious when my car breaks down in the small, quiet town of Midsummer, Arkansas. Then I meet the incredibly hot town sheriff and hope that things might be looking up. Unfortunately, that encounter sours fast, leaving me ready to put this town in my rearview mirror. That won’t be easy though, since my car has left me stranded here. Now I’m trapped in a town that has nothing to offer me.

Or does it?

When an opportunity presents itself that could see me staying longer than expected, I begin to notice Midsummer’s charm. I start to wonder if maybe staying won’t be such a bad thing. Even the sheriff is beginning to thaw toward me.

That is until someone commits murder and I become the number one suspect.

Can I convince everyone I’m not the murderer? Or will the real killer walk free?

MY REVIEW
When Conner's car breaks down in the tiny town of Midsummer, it not only gives him the hottest encounter of his life, followed quickly by one serious diss, but it also ends up giving him a new sense of home and a new bestie in the irrepresible Love.

Ooooh I loved Stranded!! The only downside is that now I want more and I have no idea when book 2 will be out. Conner is an absolute sweetheart who deserves all the good things. Rocky? Well, I admit to being a tad miffed at him, still, even though I'm done reading the first installment. But I have to hold onto hope that Jessica will make Rocky redeem himself, and since the second installment is written in his POV, it should be good to see what he thinks, rather than only getting Conner's perspective as Stranded gives us. These two have serious chemistry, and if Rocky can just take his head out of his ass and let himself be happy with Conner, they could have something beautiful. And I will be reading along as they hopefully achieve that happiness!

You TV series

Wow, hubby and I watched You on Lifetime last night. It was creepy and suspenseful. Hubby likened it to Dexter , and I have to agree. Penn Badgley was on point - creepy, stalkery, but fascinating. I didn't think too much of Elizabeth Lail's acting, but I'm not sure if it was just that her character was bland, or if it was truly bad acting. Can't wait for next week!
