About this listen

Wake up and feel the wood! In the first of a series of irresistible standalone romances from New York Times best-selling author Sawyer Bennett, a city girl rediscovers love and lust in the Alaskan wilderness.

Valentine French may be the sassiest dating columnist in New York City, but the abundance of metrosexuals in her adopted metropolis is seriously cramping her style. Where are the beefy all-American boys? Hoping to find some inspiration, Val heads to Alaska, where the men outnumber the women 15 to one and wrestle grizzly bears for sport. Or so she can only imagine. Suddenly the most eligible bachelorette in a town full of horny lumberjacks, Val is writing her best columns ever. But if she doesn't get her nose out of her laptop, she just might miss out on Mr. Right.

Logan Burke is the sheriff of the little podunk town that Val finds so charmingly backward. He's not that different from the guys she's using for her little experiment; it's just that one date would never be enough for Logan. As he listens to Val complain about love over beers in the local tavern, he realizes that she can't see the forest for the trees. Because if she would ever give up her Prada bags and $14 martinis, Logan would give her the only luxury that matters: his heart.

My newest fantasy will be moving to Alaska and meeting a mountain man.

Ok, not really but it sure was fun to live in this fantasy world Sawyer Bennett created. Valentine moves to Alaska to blog about dating "real" mean. Not like the type she meets in New York that have better manicures and spend more time looking at themselves than looking at her.

What she doesn't expect is to meet the love of her life. Alaska is not the face paced life she is used to in New York and BEARS, so can she make her life outside the city and when her blog comes back to bite her in the butt... can she be forgiven?

I loved this light hearted book. While completely predictable from the beginning, it still warmed my heart and was so hot and funny and sweet... I loved listening to it.

Maxine and Joe are a power couple and their narration matches wholly. I love when these two pair up.

Would you listen to Sex in the Sticks again? Why?

Yes, it was a great happily ever after story and I enjoyed the narrators delivering it to me.

Any additional comments?

When I first downloaded and started this book I was in the middle of a several hour road trip. My first impression after hearing Maxine Mitchell narrate was, "this is regrettable, I can't stand her voice but here I am flying down the highway and I'm not stopping again. I'll just bear through it". I'm glad I did. Maxine grew into the voice of a rich socialite from NYC and I loved every minute of it. Valentine French was a likable character as was Logan Burke and all the characters in the story. I would listen to this again in a few months as I'm waiting for new credits to appear as I often do.

Initial reservations turned into delight.

Alway's enjoy Sawyer Bennett"s writing. This was no exception. Romantic, funny, and filled with scenes of beautiful love making. Narration was perfect.

Great story

This audiobook was different than Sawyer Bennett's usual fare. It takes one rather snobby New York woman and transplants her to Alaska, in her quest to contrast her usual metrosexual boyfriends to Alaska's tough men for her blog. This made for entertaining listening and there were some really hot scenes as well as romantic ones. At times I found the heroine hard to relate to, because she seems so out of reality in her way of thinking. Do big city girls really get that cynical? Overall the story was good and the hero rugged and sexy. Good narration by two of the best.

Interesting concept

This was an absolutely wonderful read/listen about a New York Socialite, Valentine French, blogger that is tired of the New York metrosexual regular men that she dates and decides that she needs a different scene. So she goes to Alaska where she runs into the chief and tries to meet different people but falls for the chief, Logan Burke. But what happens when the town finds out about the blog. This was so interesting and the chemistry between these two is great. Sawyer Bennett did a great job with another hit.

New narrators great story

Rich girl, completely out of her element. Beautiful man (not an a%#@&le).
Turbulent start, fast moving story. Plausible love story, easy listen.
Ms. Bennett does very well with these kind of stories but I don't purchase all of them because she has a formula that she sticks to. Entertaining but basic fluff. I still enjoy them very much.

These two narrators complimented each other perfectly. Their voices added tremendously to the "hotness" factor. Story very well written with a wonderful combination of humor and sensuality within the plot line. My first time listening to this author. I am already to try another in the series!

Excellent narration brings story alive!

I am never disappointed by Sawyer Bennett nor these narrators. Joe Arden and Maxine Mitchell are magic together.

This story is a great city girl vs. rugged man story. I love the banter.

Never disappointed
