Things in Whynot, NC have gone to the dogs, and that’s just the way the town’s only veterinarian, Laken Mancinkus, likes it. No matter if she’s up when the rooster crows, or working until the cows come home, Laken never leaves an animal in need. So when a gorgeous Yankee comes begging for help herding some wily goats, Laken is up to the task.
Jake McDaniel is looking for a tax break, and what better way than to take up…farming? This ex-football player turned businessman turned unwitting goat farmer is up to his knees in goat drama. Runaway goats, dehydrated goats, and a baby goat that wants no one other than him, Jake needs more help than he cares to admit. Good thing the sexy veterinarian is right there to coach him on how to be a farmer. The only problem is, Laken’s not looking for anything more than a good time, while Jake is looking for his forever girl.
Will the baby goat, and Laken, be enough to get Jake to stay? Or will he take his tax break and hoof it back to Chicago? One thing is for certain…what happens on the farm doesn’t always stay on the farm.

Barking Up The Wrong Tree by Juliette Poe is the 3 novel in the Sex and Sweet Tea series. This novel can also be read as a standalone! This is the first novel in the Sex and Sweet Tea series that I have read and let me tell you, I will definitely be going back and reading the first two books!
Barking Up the Wrong Tree is the perfect feel good novel!
Laken and Jake’s chemistry was spot on. I loved the hell out of both of these characters. Laken is the small towns only veterinarian and takes her job and her respect for animals very serious. Maybe that is why when ‘city boy’ Jake McDaniel steps into the picture Laken suddenly has a chip on her shoulder. Learning that Jake bought a farm as a tax write off does nothing to remove the chip. But Laken is about to learn there is more to this city boy then what meets the eye.
I loved this ‘Country girl vs. City boy’ novel.
I loved the endless banter and the cute humorous scenes involving a baby goat that is obsessed with Jake.
If you’re looking for a light and fun small town read, definitely pick up Barking Up The Wrong Tree. I highly recommend.
Peace Love and Happy Reading,
