His country based humor really had me laughing. A definite page turner. Although the book is short (124 pgs) it is great for a weekend read. The stories vary in situation and puts you in the characters shoes to answer the question &quot;What would I do in this situation?&quot; An erotic but page turning book. It will have you laughing one minute and crying the next. A must read.</p></div></div>
