Review: Sunshine for Sale by Cora Rose & Nicole Dykes

SYNOPSIS:Book cover of Sunshine for Sale by Cora Rose and Nicole Dykes.

Braxton—the emo kid, the loner, the cynical wallflower with an attitude. It’s no secret that I’ve never quite fit in.
But it’s glaringly obvious now that I’ve moved to this Podunk small town that seems to run entirely on sugar, friendliness, and cheer. (And cows, an ungodly number of cows.)
I hate it—this place where everyone knows everyone, and I’m still the outsider.
But who wants to fit in anyways? I’ve never really tried, never even thought I wanted to… until I met him.
Jimbob is living his best life out here, farming the fields of Kansas, well and truly happy. And I just don’t get it. His charming smiles, playful winks, and easy-going attitude infuriate me, but I can’t look away. He’s like a bright, sunny day sweeping through my prickly hailstorm.
And I’m so utterly confused, because I’ve never felt this way before. There’s just something about Jimbob that makes me want to try.
Makes me want to belong.
Makes me want to put down roots in the glow of his sunshine.

REVIEW:

*Book Received in Exchange for Honest Opinion/Review*

I positively adored this light-hearted, playful romance. I have been reading some pretty intense books lately and this was the perfect break from action scenes. This is the grumpy-sunshine troupe done right, filled with plenty of will they or won’t they, some sticky sweet moments, and plenty of heat.

I was thrilled Jimbob was finally getting his story, I have been eager to learn more about the simple man since he was first introduced. He is just goodness personified, and maybe that is why I liked him so much. I am prickly like Braxton and just drawn to that sunshine disposition. Braxton is my favorite, emo, angsty cloud of darkness. Together these two had me grinning non-stop. It was all confused feelings, gay-for-you contemplation, wholesome moments, and hidden confessions.

It was such an enjoyable read, I simply devoured it. And the secondary characters, especially Jimbob’s step-brother, Ryan, have me excited for more books in the series. If you are looking for a palette cleanser book, this is it.
