A Blue Ribbon Romance - Audio

      


Title: A Blue Ribbon Romance
Series: Cambrice Creek #1.5
Author: C.M. Nascosta
Publisher: July 14, 2023
Pages: 266
Genre: Monster Romance

Morning Glory Milking Farm was just another quick tug - machine operated facility, no different from all the rest. Sure, they had big pharma money and special hands-on amenities the other milking joints couldn't boast, but at the end of the day it was the same old story — cash he didn't actually need in the bank, all for doing what he would have done for free anyway. Get in, get out, get on with his day. At least, that's what he thought.

Rourke doesn't know 
why he's so drawn to a particular milking tech . . . he doesn't know anything about her, after all. Not what she looks like without a mask concealing her face, not even her name. He only knows he can't stay away.

He wasn't looking for love, but it managed to find him in most unlikely of places, and now he's determined to prove that you 
can teach an old bull new tricks.

Violet and Rourke are back at it again with the milk jugs. 

I thought there were Easter Eggs in Morning Glory Milking Farm? This book is just one big bright shiny blue Easter Egg. And I LOVE IT. 

Rourke is this middle-aged minotaur who has a very successful business and is still somehow the mopiest man around. He's so full of angst surrounding his milking farm habits, and his favorite technician in particular. As always, we are brought along the rollercoaster of emotions with him. Because one thing you will do in a C.M. Nascosta book, is FEEL their feelings.

I love that we got a bit more of a glimpse into the non-human side of things in Cambric Creek. We get a little bit more of the politics and social structure from Rourke's point of view than we did from Violet, as a human not yet living in Cambric Creek. That was really fun to see. 

And of course. This is HOT. Rourke is a minotaur after all. Their virility and vigor are keeping pharmaceutical employees everywhere in work. There is so much masturbation in this book. Whether at a milking facility or Rourke's house, he is always down to pound. 

ETA Audio Review: Coming off of the heels of Moon Blooded Breeding Clinic puts Rourke under an entirely different kind of spotlight. This is a DRAMATIC man! It's hilarious when he gets in his head about everything. The narrator did a great job. With Rourke's voice, and everyone else's voices!!

I'm still shocked that I almost teared up when they met at the coffee shop. Rourke had been trying to engineer a meet cute there for awhile, and then it happens. It's so exciting. And the whole thing goes sideways before Rourke can even get settled into the reality of being in the same place. It's just as devastating from Rourke's perspective. One of the most effective miscommunications in recent history! 

It's always a joy to revisit Cambric Creek, and it was just what I wanted this holiday season. I'm so glad to be able to do it with my eyes and ears now! We all just need to petition the studios to option the 12 season television series and it really will be a Merry Christmas! <3
