My Rating ~ 4 bites and a nibble

Phillip and Jayne Miller were the first to buy a house on Juniper Court. Over the years they’ve seen people and families come and go, but they’ve been the rock of the neighborhood. Now that their twins are grown and off to college and they’re approaching the ripe ol’ age of 50 they decide, as loving as their relationship has always been, the sex has been a bit lackluster lately and they need to give it a kick (or maybe a spank?) in the behind. So a relationship resuscitation competition begins between husband and wife. Who will win this steamy revival of their sex life? And does it really matter as long as they’re having hot sexy fun?

I’ll be honest, I don’t really read Contemporary anymore. I used to read it A LOT. But ever since I discovered PNR that genre has sorta dropped by the wayside. However, every once in a while a Contemporary will catch my eye. This one sounded interesting, mostly because my 50th birthday is next month. Next. Month. Gah! *deep breath* Ok, I’m good now. Anyway, I was not disappointed. The story flows smoothly and has larger than life characters you can really see and hear. Maybe smell. Possibly taste. There’s humor and wacky neighbors and a loving long term relationship with all the baggage that comes with it. It’s realistic. And yet it’s not a downer. Hard for any author to pull off, but Jennifer Theriot does it beautifully. Flashbacks mix well with the present to give a deeper look into Phillip and Jayne’s relationship and how they got to where they currently are. There’s sexiness, loving, caring, steaminess and, most of all, humor. The neighbors of Juniper Court make an appearance and they each have their own book in this series. I’m thinking of making an exception to my No More Contemporaries Rule and pick up their books, too. I also have to add, what an awesome idea to get together a bunch of authors to write about each house in a cul-de-sac. Bravo!
