When I read the blurb for this I expected there to
be a lot of angst and heartbreak. I think I always go into sports books
expecting a really alpha, man-whore, player type of guy who acts a little like god’s
gift to all women but redeems himself throughout the book. And when I read
about the game show angle I was even more convinced that was what I was going
to get.
And while I have read a few romance novels based on
dating show themes I can say this one was entirely not what I expected. I figured there would be a lot of drama and angst
based on the women competing for Caleb’s attention and maybe a few issues from
his past. You know the normal sort of thing that has you tied up in knots
wondering how they are going to sort this out or get over it and have their
happily ever after.
I am so over the moon that I got none of that. This
book was free of all the normal cliché drama and I loved every second. It was
just a really sweet, feel good romance that I could lose myself in. And the
reason for this is simply Caleb. Damn was he the sort of man I hope my daughter
grows up and falls for. He was just utter perfection with amazing stick control
;) You know hockey sticks.
Sydney was a whole other matter but, oh my god did
she get on my nerves. But you know what I could completely sympathise with her
thought process. I mean here is this amazing, caring, thoughtful, sexy,
successful star athlete who has a cruise ship full of his exact type of perfect
women who all want nothing more than to throw themselves on his hockey stick and
they are the exact physical opposite of her. So I could forgive her
insecurities and give her a break but damn Sydney tie this amazing man to your
bed and keep him already.
I seriously had a very pleasant surprise with this
book and I am hoping the rest of the family will get their stories soon as I
could happily spend a few more hours fully immersed in all things Prescott.
