Futures and Frosting by Tara SivecMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
5++++ STARS
A continuation of Seduction and Snacks , after Gavin and Claire have moved in with Carter. Gavin has a daddy noq and loves living with both of his parents. It's now time for Claire to meet Carter's parents, but every opportunity leads to an unfortunate event when Claire is either drunk social posting or playing the equivalent of food softball in the house.
Lots of misunderstandings, miscommunications and pot cookies, cause a bit of strain in the relationship. And of course Gavin and his precocious mouth. Drew and Gavin fight light little kids, which is funny since Gavin is and Drew isn't... a little kid that is.
"I'm going to put corn and hot sauce on your wiener, and then I'll hit you in the face with it. Hit you in the face with your corny wiener." "You're a juice bag."~ Gavin
What? He threatened my wiener. He's lucky I didn't throw down fisticuffs with him. And just because he said 'juice bag' doesn't mean we don't both know what he was really thinking. That kid is an evil, evil genius, and I never want to be left alone with him." ~ Drew
And some of the saying that Rachel, Claire's mother, comes up with are just priceless. "If you love something you should set it free or you'll get down to brass tacks in your tires."
Carter loves Claire and keeps trying to let her know exactly like he feels, but things keep getting in the way. He's so nervous about it that Claire suspects that he may never want to marry her, which she never really considered until after Liz and Jim's wedding. With them both jumping to conclusions and not communicating, hilarity ensues.
It's rare to get through more than two pages without breaking out in full on belly laughter. I can't wait to read the next book in the series.
