She's 33, unmarried, and stuffed into a Bubble-Yum-pink bridesmaid dress. And the whole town wants to fix her up with anyone with a dental plan....
Who's going to rescue Sadie Hollowell now?
Everyone in Lovett, Texas, knows Sadie has always been a "notional" kind of gal. She got a notion to leave town ASAP and never visit her daddy (bless his heart) again. Now she's back and got the notion to invite a good-looking, hard-muscled, total stranger to her cousin's wedding. Better a stranger than some of the losers she's dated.
Vince Haven got his muscles the hard way - as a Navy SEAL in Afghanistan. He's staying in Lovett to visit his crazy aunt - the proprietor of the local Gas and Go. Before he can get the heck back out of the small town, his aunt makes him an offer he can't refuse. Maybe he'll stick around Lovett for a while. Maybe he'll make a "go" of the Gas and Go. Maybe he'll rescue Sadie out of that pink dress!

This one is OK. It shares some of the same characteristics as her other books, but there was a real disconnect between the main characters that I haven't noticed before. I didn't get the sense that these two were in love at the end or that they even particularly liked each other. And while I don't really need a HEA in a book like this, I do like some degree of closure. At the end, the demons plaguing them both were still there. Nothing was resolved. She still had the same parental issues. Her dad may have died but she still was crippled by his lack of interest. And he still had the nightmares to deal with. I am not sure what they really accomplished or if they thought being together would help them both.
OK. Kind of.

Vince goes to Lovett, Texas because he buys a Gas-n-Go from his aunt and is remodeling it. This is a cowboy love story written in the way that only Rachel Gibson can. Great romance, funny dialogue, interesting story line, teary eyes moments and a perfect ending.
Narration: Kathleen Early is an ok narrator. Not impressed by her male voices and her southern accent needs improvement but it was pleasant enough to listen and enjoy the story.
Rachel Gibson is one of my favorite contemporary romance authors. She consistently delivers a story that you want to listen to over and over again. The best narrators for her stories are Nicole Poole and Susan Bennett. I recommend listening to this book after Any Man of Mine. Although they are from different series, this one does mention a few things and characters from that book.
Another winner from Rachel Gibson!

Would you recommend Rescue Me to your friends? Why or why not?
It was a good book. Typical love story and ended well. If you go into it knowing it's a book you can start and stop and not lose your place while your multi-tasking books, then you won't be dissapointed. I liked it, just wouldn't call it a favorite.Good book, but didn't have me riveted.

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Yes, mostly. This is a total chic lit escapist sex read. The hook up scenes are good because Rachel Gibson knows how to deliver a physical scene. I really really love listening to Rachel Gibson books. In fact, why doesn't Audible release more. Why? But I have to say, this was my least favorite book of hers. Even though I listened to it in a matter of days, it was a bit boring and the writing feels a little stale, repetitive and overdone. Yes we know they are just friends with benefits. We heard it 20 times. And yes we know he is emotionally unavailable....we hear it another 20 times and she of course never had great sex until she meets HIM. You told us. We got it. I hate to write anything negative about Rachel Gibson books because I like what she does...she usually has great characters a story, conflict, and romance. She's a great writer and I will always download her books. While this was not my favorite I still enjoyed it. I just didn't enjoy it as much as the other books.Which character – as performed by Kathleen Early – was your favorite?
Vince's aunt with the hard raspy nicotine voice. I imagined that weird actress in the "magic bullet" infomercials. She's the one that smokes a cigarette in the kitchen in her moo moo while a bunch of clean cut suburban neighbors "magic bullet" garlic cloves, onions and radishes with cultish delight. She just doesn't fit the scene, just like Vince's aunt. More of her would have been fun.If this book were a movie would you go see it?
NoI hate to say anything bad...but...
