Crazy Little Thing Description
Sadie Turner is not a control freak, just...orderly. When a cheating spouse topples Sadie's impeccably tidy world, she packs up her kids for a summer vacation at her aunt's lake house, hoping to relax, reboot, and pick up the pieces away from men. All men. But eccentric Aunt Dody has other plans: she's determined to see Sadie have a little fun - with Desmond, the sexy new neighbor.
Tall, tanned, muscular - and even great with her kids - Desmond is Sadie's worst nightmare. He must have a flaw - he's a man, after all - so Sadie vows to keep her distance. But as summer blazes on, their attraction ignites, and the life Sadie is trying so hard to simplify only gets more complicated.... But maybe a little chaos is just what she needs to get her future, and her dreams of love, back in order.

3.5 stars
Sadie caught her hubby with his hand up a co-worker's skirt and mistletoe dangling from his crotch. Suddenly all the past uneasy thoughts and suspicions were validated. Fast forward a little over a year later and the divorce is final. Sadie is headed to her crazy aunt Dody's house on Lake Michigan for a summer vacation with her 2 kids.
Sadie spends her days watching the sexy Scottish Doctor neighbor, Des, jog, while trying to convince herself she isn't interested in him romantically.
Crazy Little Thing is filled with jokes, craziness and a family I felt right at home with. They are lovable in their eccentricities, yet still so everyday normal! Had Aunt Dody not been so flighty she could have been my aunt. Her cluttered, lovable and free spiritedness was so familiar and heartwarming to me.
The romance between Des and Sadie is adorable and real. It is filled with all the excitement of new relationships and all the fumbles that happen when you really start to get to know someone.
As much as I loved the laughs, the family and Des and Sadie's romance, there is something that held me back from completely falling under this book's spell. I can't quite put my finger on it as I don't think the current content is lacking, it's that there is a depth or layer of the story that was never explored or added. I feel like there is a layer of emotion or feeling that was left out. All the right ingredients, it just wasn't nurtured to its full potential - If that makes any sense.
The author hails from Michigan, my home state. As a fellow Michigander I feel the need to point out that the Edmund Fitzgerald went down in Lake Superior, not Erie.
