Where do you start with Now Leaving Sugartown?!?!?!?!?
Every time I think it can’t get any better that sneaky Carmen Jenner shifts it up another gear………
Why is she sneaky? Because she has you laughing with a panty tsunami going on thoroughly enjoying the fabulous raunchy riot that is Sugartown, Pepper and Sam, then WHAM! Tears, huge fucking feels and a breaking heart. Effortless, seamless, flawless and bloody genius.
IT’S RAUNCHY, SASSY, SEXY, FUNNY AND FULL OF SUCH TOTALLY HONEST OTT DRAMA MOMENTS (TOLD YOU!)THAT YOU CANNOT PUT IT DOWN. I LOVE THE BANTER BETWEEN THE TWO OF THEM AND THE WARMTH, AFFECTION AND FRIENDSHIP IS VERY WELL WRITTEN AS IS THE SEX THAT IS HILARIOUS FAST AND FURIOUS!
^^ I wrote that in my review for Enjoy Your Stay but Now Leaving Sugartown has been on steroids, every word still applies but large, supersized and bloody fabulous.
THE JOY OF A CARMEN JENNER BOOK IS THAT BENEATH THE SMUT, MUCK, AND LAUGHS SHE DOES SO WELL SHE INTERWEAVES THE POIGNANT, THE SAD AND LEAVES YOU LAUGHING AND CRYING, SOMETIMES ON THE SAME BLOODY PAGE.
AND HAVING READ THE EPILOGUE I WANT ‘NOW LEAVING SUGARTOWN’ NOW…… IMMEDIATELY…… SHE IS GOING TO ROCK HIS WORLD IS EVERY WAY AND I THINK THEY WILL TURN OUT TO BE MY FAVOURITE COUPLE. YOU ARE A TEASE CARMEN JENNER!!!
SUGARTOWN, I MISSED YOU AND THIS VISIT WAS EVERTHING I COULD WANT. STEAMY, SEXY, KINKY, DIRTY, SWEET, SAD, DRAMACTIC, ANGST RIDDEN AT POINTS AND ULTIMATLEY BEAUTIFUL. IT’S BEEN EMOTIONAL.
UNTIL NEXT TIME…………………………………………
^^ yeah, wrote that after reading Greetings from Sugartown and again every word (except kinky maybe because let’s face it Elijah & Ana, Holly & Jackarse own that shit!) applies this time, Pepper and Sam are my favourites, she does rock his world and he is her rock in the storm – yin to her yang, peanut butter to the jelly. I was always going to be sad writing this review because it’s the last Sugartown book and I don’t want it to end, I have adored each and every one but this last instalment is so special. From the first time Pepper runs back into him in the ice cream van (in a scene that is just so funny and 3 d in my mind) I knew we were in for a rollercoaster ride, and she does not disappoint, the range of feels she would wring out of me, bleeding, crying, shredding, laughing, turned on and smiling and happy. The depth of her writing and characters is deceptive sometimes because Carmen Jenner interweaves the angst with that trademark humour and dirty sexiness so well that the feels creeps up on you in that sneak attack.
Pepper is complicated, her demons/illness chase her and dictate the choices she makes, her battle is heartbreaking and so sad, shocking and surprising it was totally addictive reading through every single high and low. Sammy is loyal, protective and torn between doing what is right for Pepper, right for the families, right for them as a couple and a decision he can live with.
Fireman Sam and Pepper broke my heart, made me cry, made me laugh, and gave me wet panties plus the urge to rape the hubby. Feels. Huge. I am not putting anything else in this review about the story as I detest spoilers but please, go one click that bitch, because Sugartown is special, these characters are special, for me Pepper is outstanding. Carmen Jenner is a hugely talented sneaky crazy lady who will deliver for you, give you the feels and leave you smiling and satiated having had multiples.
What bloody more could you ask for ?!?!?!?!?
