Hockey player Ben Westmore has some serious skills---on and off the ice---and he's not above indulging in the many perks of NHL stardom. When a night in Vegas ends in disaster, he realizes two things: 1) it's time to lie low for a while, and 2) he needs a lawyer---fast. But the smoking-hot woman who walks into his office immediately tests all his good intentions.
Olivia Davis doesn't need anyone derailing her career---or her dreams of starting a family---least of all a skirt-chasing player like Ben. But soon he's unleashing a full-court press to convince her that he's the real deal. She's slowly falling for his sweet, rugged charm, but with so much on the line, Olivia has to decide whether Ben can truly change---or if he's just playing the game.
My thoughts:
He was drunk, he did something stupid and now he needs to get out of his mess. And honestly it was not a bad thing he did. But yes still a mess. And sure he was a player, but I can forgive that. He just needed the right woman ;)
Olivia liked her job, she was focused and she wanted a baby. She is also the opposing lawyer. But how sparks flew. But she should stay away. But damn he was fine. Though how she could be all I can't do that, when she did not even tell him her secret.
They can't date but they grow closer. I liked that he wanted her, and she, well she does want a family and thinks he can't give her that. Being a player and all.
And there is hockey too of course, it's a sports romance after all. He plays hockey and should focus so he does not croak. It's Stanley Cup after all! At least I get hockey so I liked that.
Conclusion:
Will they wont they. Yes they will

This sounds like a fun story! I don't know what it is about sports romances, but I love them. Even though I hate sports IRL. LOL! I'll check this out.
ReplyDeleteLOL, same as me then
DeleteI've never been a fan of sports romances, even for sports that I love. Glad you enjoyed it. That cover is cute, but doesn't say hockey at all.
ReplyDeleteMelanie @ Hot Listens & Rabid Reads
Well not a lot of ice time I guess
DeleteI don't read many books with sports in them but this sounds like an interesting story.
ReplyDeleteSPorts work in romance
DeleteCute!
ReplyDeleteFor What It's Worth
I haven't tried a Hockey story yet but I have one so I'll see
ReplyDeleteI have read a few
DeleteThe fact that he wants her and she wants a serious relationship with him but he's a play boy reminds me of Rafael and jane's relationship in Jane the virgin! :D

Or any other romance, lol
DeleteOh, man. I went back and forth on this one, and in the end decided I just couldn't fit it in. But damn. I do love that cover!
ReplyDeleteGreat review. I'm glad you enjoyed this one. :)
I was the same but I went for it, the cover was too cute to miss
DeleteI haven't heard of this one before but I love a good hockey romance. Great review!
ReplyDeleteWOhoo hockey
DeleteSounds cute!
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteAwww. Sounds like a good read.
ReplyDeleteBased on the cover, I would not have pegged this one for a sports romance at all!

I guess there was not a lot of sports in it, some sport romances are set in the world. Here it was more the lawyer world
DeleteLOL about hockey and the Cup. No time for romance during the playoffs ha ha! Well maybe he can squeeze in a LITTLE time lol. Wonder what he did in Vegas?
ReplyDeleteNot telling ;)
DeleteSounds good!
ReplyDeleteI love hockey players in romance novels. Not so much in real life. Lol.
ReplyDeleteYeah, real life, noo, books, yes
DeleteHmm sounds like a fun situation and I love a Stanley Cup hockey player scenario.
ReplyDeleteI guess it would have looked weird with all that spring
ReplyDeleteHa, of course they will :)
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteAs a Canadian, I'm practically duty-bound to enjoy all Stanley Cup stories!
ReplyDeleteLOL
DeleteSounds like a cute read!
ReplyDeleteTotally
DeleteThe cover is not at all the typical sports romance cover. I figured you'd see very little hockey, but sounds like the author does a good job adding it in.
ReplyDeleteYes not a lot of hockey in it, it's more he says he is doing it, but we do not see much of it
DeleteNever heard of this one before, but I like how it sounds. Yay for sports romance.
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteOh boy - being drunk can do some terrible things
ReplyDeleteOh yes
DeleteAh! I almost took this one. Sounds good.
ReplyDeleteI am such a bad cover lover
