Sam may have a ranch to run, but he’s not one to shirk his civic duties when he receives a jury summons in the mail. Fate, however, seems to be summoning him to the jury pool for entirely different reasons when a fellow juror half his age buddies up to him and refuses to leave him alone.
Nobody has ever stuck up for Wren before, who’s been on her own since she was a teen. When the grouchy … the grouchy rancher, Sam, acts on his protective instincts on her behalf, Wren is sure beyond a reasonable doubt that he’s meant to be hers for life.

I absolutely loved this book and was honored to have been able to read and review. It was such a phenomenal read and had amazing characters as well as an amazing story line. I just could not get enough of it and once I started reading it I could not put it down. I recommend that you read it.
I have read quiet a few books of Abby knox and again she has a hit on her hands, it was so good I couldn’t put it down. This book is about two people being called in for jury duty that are completely opposites.
One being a cattle farm owner and the other a cashier. This is an age gap romance book and as they say opposites attract. When Sam has given up on ever finding love and thinks he will spend the rest of his life on his own he meets the sassy, sweet and tattooed covered Wren. There is an instant attractions between the two which is felt while your reading. While Sam tries to push Wren away, it actually brings them closer together. Both of their feelings continue to grow and the more they talk the more they realize they belong together. If you’re looking for a sweet insta love, saucy love story this is the book for you.
Older man/younger woman, rancher vs. vegan and and he is a possessive cowboy? I mean how can the story be any better? LOL. This has all the hallmarks I want in a story with maybe a little less angst that I need (I don’t want much more but may be one of the characters needed a bit more interaction at the end of the story line, hard to explain without spoilers). This story is sweet and hot and full of humor and aggressive cowboy loving. I really enjoyed the meet cute and the sass that Wren has. I love it when they fight each other even when they know the steamy outcome. Sam is the fictional reincarnation of Sam Elliot (at least that is the first man that came to my mind) I might have even read some of his dialogue in that voice, LOL. Overall this was a very enjoyable short read that really hit my cowboy and Sassy craving. 4.5 stars.
Totally adorable!! Sam is a rancher called in for jury duty. From his description, I got some major Sam Elliott vibes. If he wasn’t the inspiration for Sam, I don’t want to know, leave me to my fantasy. Wren is so quirky and sweet, sassy and adorable. I loved her and her sense of self. She sits next to Sam who isn’t thrilled that a sweet, sexy but way too young woman is right by him. Such a fun way for a couple to meet and what happened when she dropped her phone made me laugh! These two look like they couldn’t possibly fall in love. That made it even better when they did. I couldn’t wipe the smile off my face when I reached the end of Shacked Up, a total delight!
Adorable steamy read. Opposite attract. Age gap romance with an old fashioned hero and a younger heroine looking for a stable masculine no-fuss bear of a man who knows what he wants- she chases him but he catches up and doesn’t let go. If you’re looking for a witty and entertaining romance with no hang ups and a Steamy, sweet happily ever after -then look no further.
Who knew jury duty could be the place to fall in love?
I loved how polar opposite both Sam and Wren were in this one.
Sam is the old cowboy who prefers a good book to any kind of conversation. He’s a meat and potatoes kind of guy.
Wren is a unique individual with tattoos, who wears shorts to jury duty. She’s a vegan woman who goes along to the beat of her own drum.
These two couldn’t be more different right? Yet, they work. Sam goes from the grumpy old man that doesn’t want any kind of connection to being Wren’s protector when the other jurors say anything mean or what he deems wrong to her.
I won’t lie, I kind of wish there would have been drama with the mom or sister. Just to kind of spice things up a bit for a story that seems just too sweet.
I love short, sweet, sexy, reads and this book is that and more.
You’ve got:
A sexy silver fox cowboy (just yes!)
A sweet, sassy, lavender haired and tatted unique heroine (love her duh!)
Off the charts chemistry
A well deserved and ever so sweet happily ever after.

I loved the gist of this story. Characters were great. I love the short and sweet. Love the older man younger woman story line. But there was something missing. Maybe a little drama from the mom at the end would have given it that something.
I read an advanced copy of this book.
Lord knows I live for short, sweet, sexy, reads and this book is that and more.
