 
Jacquie Rogers has struck me for some time as a talent waiting to “happen”. With this delightful book, she is one step closer. Her quirky talent and strong voice bring this wacky novel alive. Set in the real town of Gasmere, Idaho, the clever author puts the town on the map with this romp through rodeos, matchmaking miniature mules, and people finding where they belong in life―and discovering it’s not always where they thought they should be.
Socrates the mule doesn’t understand why humans have to make everything so darn complicated. He understands people, odd beings that they are, and even understands love, and totally perplexed why humans just don’t get it. It’s up to Socrates to save the day and make Brody and Rita see what is real and what is important. The author’s talent shines, giving a fast-paced, humorous tale that marks her as an author on the rise. It’s sexy, sharp, witty and just plain fun!
