About book Snow Falling On Bluegrass (2014)

Yayyy!!! Somebody finally dumped somebody's sorry ass! Finally! Don't want to use names, but it all happens in the first few pages, so not exactly a spoiler. Anyway, just as fun and charming as always. I love the Kentucky series. And pretty much everything else Molly writes. Funnily enough, I was in a hotel, during a big storm/power outage while I was reading this book. Sadly, no hot Park Ranger for me..... Snow Falling on Bluegrass was the first Molly Harper book I read (well, listened to), and let me say, it was an entertaining experience. As I listened, I found myself snowed in at the lodge along with Kelsey, Charlie, Sadie, and the rest of the Kentucky Tourism Commission.After Kelsey finally gets the nerve to once and for all break up with her douchebag boyfriend, Darrell, she decides to finally take a chance with her long-term office crush, Charlie. She even goes as far as packing those naughty panties for the retreat. While Kelsey may have the KTC retreat planned down to the minute, she doesn’t plan for a fierce, power-outing snowstorm or for the handsome ranger, Luke, who is more than willing to keep her warm on these cold nights.The longer the team finds themselves stranded at the lodge, the more Kelsey finds herself battling her libido and keeping the office pot stirrer, Gina, and other discontented employees in check.There are several plotting devices that I fancy in a story. One element I love in a story is a jealous hero. When competition for Kelsey’s affection seems to rise between Charlie and Luke, I couldn’t help but laugh at Charlie and his acts of jealousy. The other I enjoy is just desserts. Gina, office mean girl, and Darrell, deadbeat ex-boyfriend, get quite the apropos ending. That is all I can say without spoilers. *insert evil laugh*Harper does a commendable job creating true-to-life characters. Kelsey is a perfect combination of snarky, sardonic wit mixed with benevolence. She relieves the tension, lightening the mood, with her macabre survival humor while simultaneously putting her colleagues at ease. Luke, Charlie, Gina, Sadie, and the rest of the cast are people with whom any reader may work, be friends, or have past relationships. I found it quite easy to suspend my disbelief with how long the snow storm lasted because I was consumed with each character’s story.Amanda Ronconi, the narrator, did an exceptional job with her inflection. I loved hearing Kelsey’s sarcasm coming through Ronconi’s voice. It truly made the story even more enjoyable. My two minor complaints about the narration were the pace and character voices. At times, I felt Ronconi’s reading was a bit fast, making it easy to miss parts. I also found that the characters’ voices were too similar. If I was not listening carefully, I would not know which character was speaking unless “replied Kelsey” or “Charlie said” were spoken.It was Harper’s detailed imagery that made listening to the story a true pleasure. It was easy for me to picture the scenery and imagine the story playing out as I listened. If it were not for such excellent imagery, I feel Snow Falling on Bluegrass would definitely be a book better to read than listen to. Snow Falling on Bluegrass will be a book I listen to each holiday season. FTC disclaimer: I received a review copy from the publicist in exchange for my unbiased review.
