Jacqueline's Reads: Sure Thing by Jana Aston

Have you ever set out to have a one night stand with a sexy stranger?
No? I’m the only one?
Just kidding, I would never.
Ever.
Not usually.
But then I figured, why not? My entire life I’ve been good and it’s gotten me nowhere.
No job.
No apartment.
No boyfriend.

I’m owed a little fun, aren’t I? A reward for being good.
Sure, a new pair of shoes would be more appropriate, but Mr. Sexy Stranger is more appealing. And when he speaks—in that British accent—it’s a done deal. Every American woman has a hot British guy fantasy. Well, most do. I haven't taken a poll or anything, but I’m pretty sure it’s a fact.

Except…
You know that saying about best-laid plans?
Good, because I don’t either, but I assume they go awry.
Like my one night stand…

I love Jana Aston reads! Her books are always a one-clicks for me. I really needed Sure Thing. I wanted a laugh-out-loud, happy-go-lucky, feel-good-vibe book and Sure Thing hit the mark for me!

I love vacation books, it makes me want to pack my bags and take a tour somewhere and trust met, tours are the way to go.

Violet is 26 and she’s finding herself. She was recently laid-off and dumped. She doesn’t know what to do with her life, but she has a job a tour guide for one week for easy cash.

Things aren’t always what it seems and her life is going to get a little more complicated.

I adore Violet. I want to be her and I want to be her friend. I completely resonated with her personality, her attitude and her awkwardness because the girl is awkward, but very funny and cute. She thinks out-loud and she’s always second guessing herself.

So when a British stranger enters her life, she becomes more fluster.

Jennings is yummy, delicious and oh-la-la and more. I love me a British Hero and Jennings fits the bill. I really enjoyed Jennings, he’s fun, witty and successful with a touch of mystery. There’s just something about him that leaves you panting and curious for more.

Violet and Jennings have a one-night stand because that’s on Violet’s bucket list. Things were suppose to end there, but nothing goes to plan and it makes a hilarious and awesome storyline. I loved how they got to know each other, but they had this great insta-lust relationship. I love my steam.

From the first page I really enjoyed reading Sure Thing, towards the end I did felt like it got a little bit too descriptive. I’m not much for descriptive writing and there were a few chapters of just descriptive writing, but they were short chapters. I just prefer more dialogues in my books.

Overall, I was really happy and in a good mood with I finished Sure Thing. I felt like it had the right combination of wit, sass and chemistry between Violet and Jennings. Jana Aston never disappoints me.
