Resumen del Editor

This set contains all five books in the Good Grief, Idaho romantic comedy series:

Me and the Cute Catastrophe

Claire Harding

I was pretty happy with my life until the hot shot, all-state baller from my teen years moved back in next door. (I babysat him, yes, but I never changed his diapers. Just wanted to be clear about that.)

Guess who’s now the assistant b-ball coach?

Logic would say me–especially since I coached my entire first year holding the playbook upside down (it turned out to be an old football playbook from the ‘80s, so it’s not like it mattered which way I held it) but the accurate answer is Trey Haywood, my all-star neighbor, and I’m honestly not sure which of us is more upset about it.

Trey

Yeah. What she said.

And…when I first saw her again, I thought she was a catastrophe.

New thought post septic control: She’s a cute catastrophe. (And, holy man, can she kiss.)

Me and the Tidy Tornado

Tammy Fry

I thought it would be a good idea to buy a dog…. I ended up with an ATV I have no idea how to drive.

I’m not sure how this happened, especially since the man I purchased it from, Justin Gabriel, introduced himself by running his remote-controlled monster pickup into my high heeled shoe.

Justin

She’s tall and tidy, and man, when she gets serious about riding her machine, that woman’s a tornado!

This country boy is in love.

I'm not sure the lady feels the same.

Me and the Helpful Hurricane

Leah

It took me a while–most of my life, in fact–to decide that my hometown of Good Grief, Idaho, is the best place in the world to live. But I have, and I love it…except for one thing.

My boss.

Doug

What can I say?

She’s a hurricane.

Also, I think we might have broken some kind of workplace harassment rules when, after being tied up and slathered with honey, I kissed her.

But a man can only take so much.

I guess it says something about the kiss when I have to admit I bought another gallon of honey and borrowed my brother’s handcuffs–all (mostly) in the name of saving Good Grief’s senior living center.

Me and the Sweet Snowstorm

Kimber

I was happy to use my influence to help my grandmother, Agnes, save her assisted care facility. I thought I was going to hate being out in the wilderness for days on end…bugs and bears and no internet or sushi bars.

To my surprise, I kind of…liked it.

To my further surprise, I found myself wanting to linger around our tour guide, Bain. He’s a rugged, outdoorsy type–not the kind of guy I’ve ever found attractive. But he was so good at what he did–just tough and rugged and unafraid of anything. Who doesn’t find confidence and competence in a man attractive?

Bain

Back east, I’ve heard they call those late spring snows “sugar snows” because of the maple syrup and such. For me, here in Idaho, I just call it what it is: perfect timing for me and my sweet snowstorm.

Great story with great characters

Fun stories with characters that I liked. A series that I wished went on and on.

Incredible!

I love the stories Ms Gussman writes! I laughed out loud throughout this book. This is the second series I’ve read and am starting my third.

Funniest book on the planet

Look I can’t remember your name um Janet? Jennifer. Oh I don’t know but whatever your name is holy moly you surprised me with this series and the parts with you in the last book and Jay in this one had me ROLLING. It was hysterical.

You are truly one of the best if not THE best romance author I’ve ever read (listened to) and Jay’s ability to sound so convincingly like so many types of people is astounding.

Bravo on a job well done Julie or uh whatever your name is. Lmao!!!!!!!!

Love you.

Gigi Sloan

Just what I needed

I totally enjoy chuckling the whole way through Jesse’s books … but this one … at the book signing …. That was laugh out loud funny!! Thank you for entertaining me!

Fun

These were fun to listen to, but the story lines got kind of silly and non plausible.

Kept me laughing

I have listened to multiple box sets by Jesse Gussman & this was my favorite, so far. It was more relatable & less rigid regarding faith. I enjoyed the other box sets, but I definitely found some of the points at odds with my values & beliefs. The Cherry Tree ladies had me snickering along with their antics. Great listen!

Disappointing, for sure….

From the way the men raised in the backwoods in Arkansas were portrayed to the mocking of the aged women in a nursing home, this was the least palatable of the stories I’ve read by this author. Not sure why she tried to make them inappropriately humorous, but it didn’t work! Also bringing in the narrator Jay Dyess as part of the fixation of one of the elderly ladies love target fell short in the humor department.
