Review: Beauty and the Mustache - Book #4 Knitting in the City , Book #0.5 Winston Brothers Series - Penny Reid - December 2014 I have to admit I am not a major fan of the Knitting in the City series as the characters seem to rub me the wrong way, but  The Winston Brothers series is a whole different story. So though Beauty and the Mustache is technically a Knitting in the City story, I decided to read it due to the main character being a Winston.  Beauty and the Mustache is the story of Ashley Winston who has just arrived home after being away in Chicago for the past eight years. Mama Winston - Bethany is sick and dying and doesn't have long to live. Her mum has also made Dr. Drew Runous her power of attorney, and he also owns her house, so that when the time came to it, their father wouldn't have any claim as long as they sta...

  Review: Beard In Mind - Book #4 The Winston Brothers Series - Penny Reid - August 2017 When I saw that a new Winston Brothers book had been released , I knew I had to read it as I love this series. I still have to admit that Cletus is my favorite brother. In Beard in Mind, I was expecting the timeline to be following Cletus's story but it, in fact, ran alongside his story. As those who have read Cletus's story would remember the new mechanic Shelley and how Cletus thought she was his perfect match until Jennifer came along. In Beard in Mind, Shelley will finally get a Winston Brother just not the original one she thought. Beau is used to girls swarming over him, and he is your fixer, and he has never had a problem with the female sex until he meets Shelley who has gotten under his skin. I liked the character, Shelley, as she has OCD and Aspergers and I have to admit one of her quirks is how many words are in a sentence, and I found myself counti...

  Review: Becoming a Vincent - Book #1 The Wild Ones - C.M Owens - June 2017 I had ummed and aahed about reading this book, but then a good friend of mine who loves the same books I do tell me I had to read it as she loved it. So I did and OMG it was awesome, my only complaint was that it wasn't long enough. This book had me laughing my way right through it, and the chemistry and fun between all the characters made you want to be right in the midst of it all and even one of them. Becoming a Vincent is set in a small wop-wop lake town in the backwoods where there are four families called The Wild Ones. Each one owns their spot of land, and the Vincents are one of the families. The town is called Tomahawk, and Lilah Vincent is about to start something of a family feud. You see she has been best friends for the past few years with Benson Nolan and she would have tried something with him if it wasn't for that ghastly beard. You see the town has been in a beard gro...

Beard in Mind, an all new standalone in the bestselling, romantic comedy Winston Brothers Series by Penny Reid, is coming August 1st! All is fair in love and auto maintenance. Beau Winston is the nicest, most accommodating guy in the world. Usually. Handsome as the devil and twice as charismatic, Beau lives a charmed life as everyone’s favorite Winston Brother. But since his twin decided to leave town, and his other brother hired a stunning human-porcupine hybrid as a replacement mechanic for their auto shop, Beau Winston’s charmed life has gone to hell in a handbasket. Shelly Sullivan is not nice and is never accommodating. Ever. She mumbles to herself, but won’t respond when asked a question. She glares at everyone, especially babies. She won’t shake hands with or touch another person, but has no problems cuddling with a dog. And her damn parrot speaks only in curse words. Beau wants her gone. He wants her out of his auto shop, out of Tennessee, and out of his life...

  Review: Grin and Beard It - Book #2 Winston Brothers Series - Penny Reid - May 2016 As someone who has the uncanny knack of reading books and in particular series , it won't come to readers as a shock when I admit that this is another series that somehow I had managed to bypass book #2 and yes, I have read Book #1 and #3. In Grin and Beard It , we meet Jethro Winston. He was the oldest brother who got into most of the trouble and was definitely his father's son growing up and almost went the Iron Maiden life until he was knocked some sense to after nearly ripping his family apart just as his father had done to them. In Grin and Beard It , Jethro is now a Park Ranger and keeping the roads clear and it seems that a female is lost on their roads. Doing his duty, he assists her and to her suprise he doesn't recognise her as a the A-lister celebrity she is. This starts their friendship as she knows it's a true friendship and the pair hit i...
