STEAMY SWEET SHORT ROMANCE
ROAR is the first book in the Curvy Ambition series. Though Sawyer and Abby are sisters, there is no interaction between them in either story. The books could be read in any order.
I love the premise of the restaurant where Sawyer and her roommate, Skye, are working. The owner contributes 50% of the profits to animal rescue organizations. Add in that Sawyer has ambitions to study to be a veterinarian and volunteers at the local no-kill shelter and it is the perfect story for animal lovers and conservationists.
Gunner and Sawyer have one heck of a “first date” that quickly morphed into all of the big questions in life. Sharing their love of animals seems to break the ice to build the relationship neither saw coming.
Steamy, yet sweet, this is a quick read for someone who wants to skip the getting to know you phase of a relationship. I would have liked to have seen more character and plot development, but this is a (very) short prequel story.
Includes three epilogues allowing glimpses into Sawyer and Gunner’s future as they continue to live their happiest ever after.
Note: While I received this book as a gifted audiobook copy via Booksprout, my opinions are my own and are given freely.

Animal lovers will thoroughly enjoy this one! Sawyer loves the “big cats”. Well, she really loves all animals and would like to become a veterinarian and is a volunteer at an animal shelter. She and her roommate, Skye, both work at a new restaurant/bar called “Wild”. The company contributed 50% of the profits to rescue wildlife. It also paid the workers well and included sick days and healthcare. A new hire, Gunner, was an older guy who worked as assistant chef in the kitchen and Sawyer kind of liked him.
Laura, the vet who owned the animal shelter, asked Sawyer if she could show the new guy around today. To Sawyer’s surprise, the new guy was Gunner! She showed him around and the animals seemed to take to him right away. He told her about tigers he had seen up close in Asia as an animal rights activist. She was thrilled! She took him over to their grouchy dog Princess who had been abused – and she came right up to him! Sawyer already had a crush on the guy!
She heard from a co-worker that the CEO of Wild was coming for a visit. He had rescued many wild animals. One was a Bengal tiger whose cubs were stolen for the black market. Rumor said he was going undercover to try to find them! That sounded far-fetched, but gossip often did.
At their 9:00 break, Gunner asked Sawyer to help him rescue some tiger clubs from Floyd’s World of Wildlife. They had been stolen from the owner of Wild and Floyd refused to give them up, even through legal channels. All he needed her for was to sit in the truck and drive him out of there fast when he came out. Will Sawyer put her job at risk to help Gunner with this? Will she find out who he really is?
This is such a cute story about two people who are a perfect match for each other. The characters are likable and have very big hearts for animals. With two people so much alike, is there a chance Sawyer will give him a chance, despite his being older than she is?

Another quick and fun read by Phoebe Sweet. I can count on this author to provide interesting characters who enter act in interesting ways.
Things I enjoyed about this book:
I’d like the dynamic between the lead male and lead female characters. The age difference was not cringy.
I like the animal aspect of the story and I enjoyed the big cats.
I have read a few of this author’s books and have not been disappointed in any of them.

We begin learning all about Sawyer and her almost obsession with Big Cats. She and her best friend Skye both work at a new restaurant in town called “Wild”. Her parents didn’t want her working there and threw her out of the house. Now she lives with Skye and it’s all working out for them. Generally speaking, the Wild is doing very well and the girls get paid good money, get medical and benefits too! There’s a new guy at work named Gunner. He’s an older man, a few white hairs and built pretty well. And, he’s quite handsome. Hubba hubba!
Sawyer isn’t just obsessed with Big Cats, she loves animals and wants to be a veterinarian. She even volunteers at the local no-kill shelter. It’s there that she has to ‘train’ Gunner for his first day there. He’s amazing with all the animals there, even the difficult ones. He isn’t just a ‘Dog Whisperer’, he seems to be an Animal Whisperer which completely steals Sawyer’s heart.
This is such a fun and quick read. I enjoyed it immensely! I have to say that I sort of read this out of order in that I read Thick (Curvy Ambition Book 1) first. Then I went and read this prequel which was written three months after the first. While I did like the first story, I liked this one much more. Sawyer, Gunner, the tiger cubs and all the other animals made this a very delightful read. Now I have to go back and re-read the first book before reading the rest of the series!
