It doesn’t take long to see that this sexy woman isn’t the end of me—she’s the beginning.
But while I have the luck of the Irish, Clover doesn’t, and getting her to open up to me is no easy task.
When she finds out the real reason I brought her to my place in the woods I know she’s going to run.

RATING 4.5 STARS
Rugged is book two in the series, A True Mountain Man, by Frankie Love. This book was previously known as His Lucky Charm. This could be a perfect read for St. Patricks Day or if you’re like me and you enjoy Frankie’s books as much as I do, it’s great for any time of the year!

I just don't see the love happening.
Guy was a manwhore and he enjoyed being a manwhore.
Took heroine to where he takes all his ONS. Well he takes all of them home.
He had no reason to reform, he enjoyed sex with numerous OW. So apart from heroine just being off the chart batty and unlucky I don't see how she's different. Except of course the sex was perfection. I absolutely do not know what method they follow to determine that.
But seriously throughout the week, all he did was lie about rainbows a ...more

Not bad.. because accents. Wonderufl and swoon-worthy irish accents.
No idea why I'm reviewing this little series out of order but I have zero regrets since I flew threw them today. Rugged was so freaking short - I seriously wished it was longer! Mostly because.. the accents! Plus I felt like things were kind of rushed towards the end.

This is short and sweet. The narrator has an Irish accent which made it even better and there were plenty of hot romance scenes. I liked the alternating points of view between Connor and Clover and the plot was cute, if simple. Everything in Clover's life is going downhill so she decides to take a trip to Ireland and find a rainbow, hoping it will turn her luck around. The tour guide she books happens to be Connor, the hot Irish guy she met in the pub. The were cute together and the ending was a

Sexy smut set in Ireland.
Conor and Clover.
He is a man whore before meeting Clover for anybody who might be interested in reading this seasonal (Saint Patrick's day) hot read.
I am personally OK with that aspect, as I never take these smutty novellas too seriously anyway.
It was an OK read, nothing special.

This is not a bad book but it is soo predictable. I am sorry 😐 because I normally love Frankie Love but this is complicated. I just got so mad at the fact I knew everything that was going to happen. Not the love but the entire story line. I will be a forever Frankie fan but this was a no for me.
2.5 stars - for reading a second book by this author I had higher hopes for more.
Clover spent 3 weeks looking for literal rainbows in Ireland and didn't find any. is it even possible that someone can spend that much time in a foreign land looking for rainbows?! what a waste of actual tourism.
this is the second book I've read by the author and like the other book I'm wishy-washy on my feelings. I kinda like the characters but there's something in the writing that bothers me. I'm not sure what exa ...more

When Conor's brother and his best friend bet him he cannot keep a woman for a week straight, Connor goes along with the craziness, why not?! He is the luckiest guy around!
That is until the guys pick out the women he has to convince to stay with him.
Clover, a sarcastic, beautiful, put you in your place American- the minute she speaks, he is entranced and nervous. This might be best and worst thing that has ever happened the both of them.
How Lucky are we?!

Luck of the Irish
Connor is very lucky, happy-go-lucky even. He and his partner have a successful touring company called the Lucky Irishman Tours, tourists and local lassies are only too happy to jump into his bed. The only thing missing is owning the land his cabin is built on. He inherited his granny's ring while his brother got the land. Then, just before St. Patrick's Day, his brother makes him a bet: stay involved with a woman of his choosing for one week and he'll swap inheritances with him ...more

Parts of this book straight up CRACKED ME UP. Seriously. OMG. Of course there was also seriously hot, steamy, kindle-melting scenes as well. This whole story put a smile on my face. Frankie really painted a pretty picture of the area they were in, and I loved all the little Irish things throughout. I recommend this book, it's a feel good, hea, dual pov, sexy mountain man book you will love,

Conor's brother Patrick & friend Sean think it's hilarious to bet Conor can't keep a girl longer than 1 week. The prize he gets the land he wants, if not he has to lose his mams wedding ring easy? No such luck they get to choose the girl!
Clover feels unlucky her ex cheated on her & blamed her for her bad luck. Can coming to Ireland change her luck?

Clover's luck changes thanks to a bet between brothers. She came to Ireland looking for rainbows but ended up finding so much more.
Conor has his heart set on the property his parents left his brother. He has no idea that an American girl is about to steal his heart.

Can I say how sexy Frankie Love's mountain men are? Seriously no one does it better than her. She is simply everything. From her plot to her romance and smut she is basically mastered the ability to give you a story with all components and an HEA. Conor is beyond Alpha hot, Clover's sassy and sarcasm will be a breath of fresh air and their love story is simply going to leave you in awe. LOVED this.

U enjoyed this story. Yeah I know Conor was a man whore and he loved his manwhoring ways..And he never considered even wanting to settle down till he met Clove. I thought it was sweet. Not annoying or to OTT since I don't take these books to seriously to begin with. it's all part of the fun and fantasy.
Is it wrong that every time I read Conor's parts I heard him in my head sounding like Jamie from the Outlander? Ireland, Scotland, who cares....Oh well, that's just my fantasy. ...more

Great book Frankie! Conor's not my favorite mountain man, but he has secured himself into the #2 spot. I think we can all see Clover in ourselves as we're trying to find our path. It has an equal sticky sweet and hotness. I think this is very well written and does a great job of telling their story.

This is the second book in the series I found it to be super romantic super hot and sweet to the core. I love how our mountain man falls deeply in love with Clover.

Loved It!
OMG! I loved this storyline. Actually, I enjoyed reading everything in this story. I like the descriptions, so life like, some so naughty. But I enjoyed the real life like drama and issues that everyone has, and finding that perfect rainbow, the one that’s made just for you. I love that dream.

Put a lot of thought into this and how she pretrade the characters countryside and the description was beautiful and the fact that Connor Frank to commit made it even more exciting and Clover truly was a joy to read about good job

Luck of the Irish 🍀
Romantic, steamy & HEA. All the makings of a good read. Conor & Clover are good compliments to one another. Where one is black & white the other is full of color and they teach each other something about themselves. This gets 5 shamrocks 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
