This book is sweet and an honest love story about a couple who get it wrong then get it right. Plus it's quite funny. The friendship between the heroine and her best friend is a hoot.
I'm sure this would be a great story, but I personally couldn't get past the language. Apparently I will miss some steamy bedroom scenes. I'm okay with that. I prefer a good story without gratuitous language and sex.
Not my usual fare, but I like the humor in it. And I always enjoy books about "regular people" - like hair dressers, in this case. Even if they're pretty crazy ladies. lol
Debbie Sue and Edwina are two best friend that run a beauty shop out in Saltlick, Texas. Sheriff Buddy Overstreet is Debbie Sue's ex-husband whom she's still very much in love with. So when Debbie Sue's best customer, or should I say richest, is found murdered, she and Edwina set out to find the culprit. This putting Buddy right back in the middle of her life.
I really truly enjoyed all of the characters in this book. Every one of them seemed to have their own unique personalities that made it seem to come to life. There was a lot of dry wit that keeps you laughing and very strange Southern sayings. I thought with my being from Texas, I would have heard a lot more of them.
I listened to the audio book version and the narrator took some getting used to, with her doing an over the top Texas accent. But once I did, I loved it. I had never read Dixie Cash before this book, and what drew me to it was the comments that if you enjoyed Mary Kay Andrews you would love Dixie Cash. And I did. I will definitely be continuing the Domestic Equalizers series.
Would have given more stars but I did not appreciate the vile language. That is MY preference, if I had read the book instead of listening it might not have bothered me so much. Loved the story line and the comedy made me laugh out loud!
