It’s no secret that I am a huge Penny Reid fan. I absolutely love and adore Penny. Her books are original, witty, smart and fresh!! And the Winston Brothers Series happens to be my favorite series and Cletus Winston absolutely stole my heart.

Cletus Winston is that devious smart and sneaky brother. He’s a people watcher and knows everyone’s secret. And that makes him a very dangerous person.

Jennifer Sylvester is the Banana Cake Queen of Green Valley. She has lived twenty-two years of life following her parents. As much as she wants to live her own life, she can’t. She is in her own personal prison where she must dress a certain way. So when Jennifer catches Cletus on video, taking evidence from the Sheriff station, she decides to blackmail Cletus.

Jennifer informs Cletus that he needs to help her find a husband and in turn Cletus challenges Jennifer to break some rules and do things that she wants to do. In the process, Cletus and Jennifer begins to form a kind of friendship that begins to get blurred. Deep feelings begins to form and soon Cletus discovers that Jennifer snuck into his heart. What happens when Jennifer discovers that Cletus has been blackmailing her father? Will she be able to trust Cletus and trust her heart?

Beard Science is a fun, sexy, emotional, and lovable read. I absolutely loved everything about this book. Cletus and Jennifer’s chemistry is indescribable. They were just a perfect pair as they balanced each other. I loved that Cletus challenges Jennifer to live the life that she always wanted. I will say this once again Penny Reid is a brilliant author who continues to deliver smart romances that are fun, fresh, lively, and a riot of entertainment full of heart.
