Barking Up the Wrong Tree (Sex and Sweet Tea, #3)

This is yet another sexy sweet tale from Juliette Poe, aka Sawyer Bennett.
Lakin Mancincus knows the ma she is helping to round up his goats is a city slicker so far outside his comfort zone. But she also knows he’s good looking, and sexy underneath his expensive (ruined) suits and fancy car. He’s not going to be in town long, so what’s the harm in a little fun while he’s here.
Jake McDaniels knows nothing about running a farm, but he doesn’t plan to run the farm himself. Having bought Ferrington Farms as a tax write off, he never expected to have to rush there so quickly after having purchased it and hired a new foreman. Good thing in his panic he found the town vet, and found that not only is she a great vet, but she’s hot as well.
These two felt an attraction from the beginning. Lakin hasn’t had a serious relationship since she returned to Whynot 7 years ago, preferring to keep things casual. But Jake’s temporary residence in Whynot is enough buffer that she considers working on things a little longer term with the erstwhile farmer -- until feelings start to grow.
I loved Jake as he found his farm legs, particularly as Miss Goatikins played a role in those experiences. In fact, the addition of the animals, both MG and Lakin’s dog, Herman, added another grin inducing element to the story. Herman even has a few chapters to narrate in his goofy dog voice.
The entire Mancincus family is back, and there is some drama in the background that plays into Lakin’s stress as she and Jake dance around whether or not they are dating, whether or not they are serious. I love this family -- they are just so much fun to read!
I was gifted a copy in exchange for an honest review.
