Truth or Beard

Some unexpected M/F fun, a really good AB, and now I'm invested. I blame Cletus and I'm not mad about it. Good southern boys, gentlemen in the real sense of the word, beards, smart women who, though young, don't suffer fools gladly. Add to that pies and what's not to like?

For a most excellent review, one I agree with wholeheartedly see my friend's Optimist's review. It's perfect.

I did have some queries or wow moments which highlighted how Southern or removed from my life experience this story was Duane's momma has died at 47. Duane is 24. He's far from the oldest Winston brother. Turns out she shacked up with Mr. Winston at 16!!!but I like that. It's my main reason for reading. A window into other ways of life. It's a good thing.

The question of Jessica's father is left hanging, though I don't think it's a mysteryI guess this and other things will be addressed in subsequent books.
