Beard in Mind, an all new standalone in the bestselling, romantic comedy Winston Brothers Series by Penny Reid, is coming August 1st!
All is fair in love and auto maintenance.
Beau Winston is the nicest, most accommodating guy in the world. Usually.
Handsome as the devil and twice as charismatic, Beau lives a charmed life as everyone’s favorite Winston Brother. But since his twin decided to leave town, and his other brother hired a stunning human-porcupine hybrid as a replacement mechanic for their auto shop, Beau Winston’s charmed life has gone to hell in a handbasket.
Shelly Sullivan is not nice and is never accommodating. Ever.
She mumbles to herself, but won’t respond when asked a question. She glares at everyone, especially babies. She won’t shake hands with or touch another person, but has no problems cuddling with a dog. And her damn parrot speaks only in curse words.
Beau wants her gone. He wants her out of his auto shop, out of Tennessee, and out of his life.
The only problem is, learning why this porcupine wears her coat of spikes opens a Pandora’s box of complexity—exquisite, tempting, heartbreaking complexity—and Beau Winston soon discovers being nice and accommodating might mean losing what matters most.

*ARC received in exchange as with a honest review*
5 BRUTALLY HONEST STARS
So, I remembered when I read Cletus and Duane story before that I really need to read Beau's story and so when I received the ARC, I freaking devour it. I mean, it is THAT GOOD.
And OMG Beau, why are you so charming?!
Beau Winston is this good-natured, easygoing guy that everyone loves and it was so exciting that I finally managed to get to know what makes him thick. I assumed that he is going to be like the guy that sleeps around because he is so loveable but yet he is the opposite of that and that kinds of surprised me. He is undeniably delightful of course, especially when he is full of his charms but yet I also like to be introduced to his 'dark' side. I also fall in love a little bit more with him when he managed to tackle his own demons.
I was a bit skeptical at first with Shelly became Beau love interest because I am an idiot and Beau has this special place in my heart but man, after reading this I approve 100 percent. In fact, now I think Shelly is exactly what Beau needs because she is just perfect for him. Shelly is this refreshing character that I gradually fall in love with mainly because of her peculiarity. She could be described as hot as a top model but with the skills of a gifted mechanic and super talented with sculptures. And man, my heart breaks for her when she struggle to overcome her 'obsessions' because her level of disorder is something that I have never heard before and I just wanna give her a big bear hug.
Overall, I would like to think that Penny Reid has created another masterpiece because I can't seems to get Beard in Mind out of my mind. Heh, see what I did there? :P But it is true because when the mood strikes and I suddenly become brutal honest with people around me I feel like I am Shelly and whenever I smile and be charming I feel like I am Beau. Gosh. What a strange feeling this book has made me feel. That just shows how fabulous this book is that you will keep thinking of the characters as if they live with you. And with that, I highly recommend Beard in Mind because you are going to be absolutely and definitely loving it.
P.S: I totally thought Beau gonna propose at one moment but it turns out to be such a freaking sweet and touching gesture. Beau is so sweetttttt. Sigh.
P.P.S: I think I need a chart about all the characters appeared or mentioned in this book because there are so many of them and although I've read and love the books from Penny Reid other series, I cannot remember them all lol.
