Release Day A Little Bit Crazy: I am ALOT Crazy for B Cranford




Title: A Little Bit Crazy
Author: B. Cranford
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: November 2, 2017



Blurb

The biggest mistake Jade Miller ever made was agreeing to a date with the World’s Biggest Jackass…

Stood up, fuming and, frankly, done with men, Jade’s not about to forgive or forget.

Except, with the voices in her head giving her conflicting ideas, and the man himself showing his smart, sexy, swoony side, she’s having a hard time staying away.

The stupidest thing Declan Young ever did was forget to make that phone call...

“Hey, I’m running a little late” could have saved him a year of frustration—sexual and otherwise—at the hands of a certain pink-haired spitfire.

All he wants is another chance, another night—the possibility of making it right. Which he’s determined to get.

The craziest thing is they’re crazy about each other...

Jade would rather believe that they’re enemies.
Declan knows they’re something more.

And that makes them both feel a little bit crazy… 




My Review

It would be fairly ludicrous for me to minimize my enthusiasm for the follow-up to The Brightest Star. Let me clarify: This book completely stands alone and no reason to 'need' to read book 1. However, I will state you are missing out if you don't read The Brightest Star. But back to the task at hand...my review of A Little Bit Crazy. 

I'm always a fan of the smart ass secondary characters. (Met me?) I can relate to their snappy dialogue and enjoy their unfiltered dispensing of wisdom. Jade and Declan gave that and more in Sebastian and Brighton's story. I felt an instant kinship to Declan and begged the author for MORE. And she delivered. In KU Korner's Bedtime Stories.  To date one of my favorite stories there affectionately known as:

#staplergate

So to the delight of this fangirl, she took #staplergate and gave the readers as perfectly executed second chance story.  Unlike other second chance stories where there is unending drama as to why our beloved couple aren't together from the start, this story starts off with relatable scenario - I lost track of time. Typical dude move. Well, our heroine isn't going to be an afterthought - so blew it and to the curb with Declan.  And that's where the story takes off to a will he/won't he be able to make up for being a distracted man. 

But more than a romantic comedy, Ms Cranford offers a story with heart. You learn that Declan is ACTUALLY not that dude and is a good guy who made a mistake. The reader also learns that Jade isn't all snappy dialogue and to-die-for heels, but a flesh and blood person with a few reasons not to full trust this feeling. 

Oh...don't worry...we get plenty more of #staplergate worthy scenes.

Ms. Cranford shows the reader she is more than contemporary romance and can expand her writing skills to give the readers giggles, gasps and a few tears. Perfectly paced and never dragging - this story keeps you engaged. Whether or not you've read her debut, this is a story you'll want to pick up and buy because you'll find it as a re-read for when you need a well-balanced story. 5 out of 5 stars.

Author Bio

B. Cranford is a proud Australian living in the USA, a lover of books, breadsticks and bed, and the mother of two children who are far too similar to their father for her liking. A lifelong reader, she dove into the romance genre on the recommendation of her best friend and hasn’t looked back since. After three years as a blogger, she decided it was high time she finally finished one of the 12,002 books she’d started writing, and the end result was The Brightest Star.
