Jules's 4 sweet pea review appears at mrsconditreadsbooks.com/index.php/?p=13701Left on St. Truth-Be-Well is another win for Amy Lane. Her stories never fail to make me feel, laugh, think, and wish for more. This one is no exception. And, while many of her stories are heavy at times, and have you reaching for booze and tissues, this one is very lighthearted. No angst train this go `round.When Carson O'Shaughnessy heads to Florida from Chicago to find his boss's nephew and bring him home, he is certainly not expecting the adventure that awaits him; nor does he expect to truly find himself...but, that is just what happens.Carson meets Dale - a handsome surfer - who turns out to be exactly what he needs. Both men are sort of drifting...going through life with low expectations, and unsure of their direction. But, when they get together, sparks fly and they realize what they have been missing in their lives.This book starts out as a funny, bizarre murder mystery - but, is, at its core, a beautifully quirky romance. The chemistry between Carson and Dale is great; their dynamic turns out to be a surprise to Carson (which is fun!), and their scenes are extremely sexy.This is a great read, with very endearing characters. I really enjoyed it!
