Resumen del Editor

"A slow grin spread across his face, and I had to turn away from the wattage. It was like staring at the sun. The handsome sun that was making my core temperature rise and causing a hormone dump in my brain." (Shelby Thompson)

Personal trainer Jonah Bodine discovers more than he bargained for with the half-siblings he didn’t know he had in small-town West Virginia. Not only is his dead father a person of interest in a cold-case disappearance, but the entire town seems way too invested in Jonah’s happily-ever-after potential.

His summer of solitude in a lakeside cottage is ruined when his matchmaking sister saddles him with an unwanted roommate. Adorable, snort-laughing nerd Shelby Thompson came to Bootleg Springs looking for answers and ends up getting adopted by the town’s nosy elders. Maneuvered into sharing a cottage with the handsome trainer, she makes the best of a sticky situation by offering her perpetually shirtless roommate a strings-free summer fling. Jonah is tempted. Very tempted. But Shelby has secrets. And as the Callie Kendall mystery unravels, Shelby’s own past comes back to haunt her. The danger is very real, and so are the feelings she’s developing for Jonah.

Gin Fling

I love this series! I feel like each book just keeps getting better! This one might have been my favorite so far!

Another swoony exciting Bodine love story

This book is the perfect fun, heart warming, small town summer fling romance with a side of romantic suspense and it is filled with all the feels. Natalie Duke and Stephen Dexter do a wonderful job narrating these characters to life. Jonah Bodine is a personal fitness trainer who lives in small town Bootleg Springs, WV. He moved to town a year ago to meet his half-siblings, 3 brothers and a sister. Shelby is working on her dissertation for her PhD in social work and using the town as the basis of the work. Jonah’s conniving sister forced them to be roommates and they creep towards more while training for a triathlon, fostering a puppy, and trying to stick to their fling parameters. Jonah and Shelby are summer fling, roommates sizzling chemistry perfection and watching them stumble through was fun and heartwarming. They both have some baggage to work through on their way to realizing that there’s nothing temporary about their relationship. Bootleg Springs is just the most hilarious, heart warming, sweet, nosy, eccentric small town that ever existed. This hilarious romance has a little bit of everything - sweet moments, fan your face steam, painful pasts, strong friendships, crazy families, quirky town folks, snort worthy moments, a mystery, some danger, surprises, and so much love. There is an overarching mystery plot line that runs through this series and this book gets close to the ending so the series needs to be enjoyed in order. I am excited to read about the final Bodine brother and the conclusion of the Callie mystery.

Love this series!!!!

Can’t get enough. Love the characters and funny! Looking forward to the next one too.

Jonah and Shelby

Oh how I love Shelby her nerdy, quick witted, fun playful character made me fall in love with her instantly. How she responds and reacts to Jonah. How she simply understands people, and Helps Jonah come to terms with his childhood insecurities. she is a gem. The athlete and the nerd. I love everything about this couple. How he is so encouraging to her! sigh.. so sweet!!!

Stephen and Natalie were fantastic as always!!!

So so good!!

Had me biting my nails quite a bit! Such a good book! I enjoyed it the most I think.

My favorite

If I can have a favorite out of this series this one might be it for me. I love that Shelby was aggressive in pursuing Jonah.

Loved them all

Love this series , romance and a mystery. I’m glad they brought Johanna’s mom into it.

All the stars

Fantastic narration.
This is one of my favorite family series ever. One of my favorite small town series. If you like either or both of those then you have to read these books. Jonah finds a family, a love, and a home. It is so sweet seeing him becoming intertwined with his siblings. I’m so glad Shelby wasn’t a no good journalist. I’m bittersweet about the next book because it will be over, but I HAVE to know the answers to all the Callie questions. Come get swept up in the chaos of Bootleg Springs. You won’t regret it.

Best Series Ever!

I can’t believe how great the Bootleg Springs series is….each love story is wonderful on it’s own, but the subplot (a long unsolved Bootleg Springs mystery) that develops story by story as the series progresses adds so much anticipation! I’m ready for the last book and can hardly wait.

Jonah and Shelby’s romance is a classic…forced proximity, with plenty of fun, including meddling Bootleggers and Bodine family members, sweet and steamy moments, and even pets. The recurring elements of Bootleggers and the community of Bootleg Springs feels like a warm hug now that I’ve finished the fifth in the series, Jonah and Shelby grow together and become enmeshed in the community and even strike out to help uncover critical aspects of the ongoing mystery.

Narration is stellar! I highly recommend Gin Fling…start at the beginning of the series, you won’t regret it!

Keeps getting better

Each book draws us in more and more. I know I am going to miss it when finished!
