Give Me a Shot

Give Me a Shot by Gia de Cadenet, 320 pages

Amateur blacksmith Mo lives a quiet life, teaching blacksmithing at a local folk school when he's not running his auto mechanic shop. Then he meets Jessica, an elite archer who has moved to town to take care of her late sister's things and apparently, to upend Mo's life. Suddenly, the two of them are planning a renaissance faire to help raise funds for the folk school and slowly falling for one another.

This was an OK romance novel. I enjoyed the juxtaposition that Mo was a burly "manly man" who was also extra sensitive to those around him, to the point that his empathy was sometimes a burden to him. However, there were several things I didn't quite buy when it came to this book, which is what has made it fade in the days since I've read it. OK, but nothing new or great.
