Review by Wendy ♥ Man Card (Man Hands, #2) by Sarina Bowen and Tanya Eby


A Review by Wendy

4.5 Like Champagne or Caviar Stars
* * * * 1/2  
Spoiler Free  
So Wendy what the hell does Champagne or Caviar have to do with this book, Huh....Well, many feel those items are an acquired taste...Some love the taste of Champagne with all the fizz that can go to your head...and then there is the salty taste of Caviar... it can be a wonder or too much...It just depends on who makes the product and the quality level....

Man Card (Man Hands, #2) by Sarina Bowen and Tanya Eby is like those luxury items...These two authors created a series of characters which have a special, humorous, sometimes biting way of communicating and because of their talent and ability to build characters and story...this particular series is like the best Champagne and Caviar...Rich, Silky and Oh, So Very Special.

These characters were introduced in Man Hands.
We knew right away another book needed to be done...they were people who were begging to have their romance told... They just didn't know it yet...

Well, that isn't totally correct... Braht knew from his first moment with Ash. These two are competing Real Estate Agents who are part of the same company. Each person is driven to be the best but for different internal reasons. We learn of their back stories and as the story progresses, it is touching to see the impact family actions can make.

Now as to these specific people...Ash is beautiful, brilliant and capable. She is organized and has a ex whose behavior made her be more than cautious. She had to be watchful.

Braht...this is a man who loves the finer things in life...and with good cause. He has worked to take care of his brother and ever success has been fought for...

So if Braht doesn't fit the usual Alpha Male Picture... do not let that fool you. This is a man so secure in who he is and what he is packing... he can do mani/pedis with the best of them. No really... Braht is an enlightened MetroSexual of the highest order...

And there is a moment in this enjoyable read where he lays it out to Ash just how a Real Man should be with a woman....Every Single Word is perfect. If that is all you take away from this story... then you got what was important.

Although there was so much more...Laughs and Sexy times which deserve a review all on their own....and a story which worked for me.

This series is fun, sexy and I have a sneaky suspicion Braht's brother might have his own book coming... and that will be fantastic. Here's to more first rate Champagne and Caviar!
