Stranded

Stranded is packed full of mystery and drama. Whew! Jessica Frances takes us on a whirlwind on Connor's first unintended stop on his road trip of exploration. Frances puts Conner's life on a tilt-a-whirl and let me tell you the ride is awesome!

There are multiple mysteries. Frances creates an oddball assortment of secondary characters, some you already know are going to be no good. Then there is Love and she is everything her name is. Frances does have a unique choice for names and it makes you think if there is something more behind it.

I will say that Frances addresses homophobia quite a few times in this story. Along with other types of bullying for varying reasons because let's face it bullies do not really need a reason for the person they pick on. None of these issues are solved in this book and some are not addressed yet, I have to assume they will be addressed in a later book so I am interested in how Frances will address it.

Frances has also created great chemistry between Rocky and Connor. Two men who are different places in life and are not heading in the same direction. BUT...damn they cannot keep their hands off each other.

I cannot wait to see what happens next....

I received an ARC of this book and I am writing a review without prejudice and voluntarily.
