Review: The romance was sweet, but the female characters ruined the book for me.

I'm all for strong women, but the author made her two main female characters ridiculously violent. When any guy says something one of these women doesn't like, they don't just tell him to get lost, they smash the guy in the head with a full beer bottle, punch him in the face, or slam his head against a steering wheel. One violent attack gets the two women thrown in jail, but then the sheriff just frees them once they explain that they attacked the guy because he offended them. I lost interest completely when one of the women took the time to give everyone a speech about what a bad-a** she is. There was nothing admirable about these women at all.The two stars are for the hero character. He was down-to-earth, honest, hard-working, and genuinely hopeful about having a family some day. He bent over backwards to make his mate feel cherished. Wish his mate had been worthy of it.
