Ivy Entwined by Laura SimcoxWritten with humor and a little raunchy on the language side, this book was entertaining. Ivy has good intentions for the town and her life but things don't always go as planned. The scene where she's in the kitchen, has been on the wrong side of a hammer, then the freezer door hits her on the head followed by the coffee grinder spilling all over her is so much real life. Haven't we all had those kinds of situations where everything seems to go wrong?"He still sounded like a tool. Good thing she hadn’t marriedhim because by now, he’d be taking a dirt nap and she’d be in prison."Ivy Callahan is the new mayor of Celebration. She has big plans to revitalize the downtown area of Celebration.Marcus Weaver is ready to invest in Celebration by bringing big box Megamart into town which will help with the huge unemployment rate.Ivy and Marcus both want success for Celebration but don't agree with how to get there. They do agree that there is considerable chemistry between them and can't seem to keep from thinking about the other. Or keying their lips and other body part from bumping together.The lies and complicated schemes abound and feelings are hurt multiple times. Both know the other doesn't want their plan to go through yet they are both surprised and hurt when overhearing it flat out. Why? A little depressing with so much anger and hurt and lies.I enjoyed the humor in this book. I look forward to reading future books by Laura Simcox.I received a copy of this book from the publisher.
