Chance
The day I saw Gemma Steele’s delicious body wearing nothing but a few scraps of lace, I knew being traded was the least of my problems.
Her sexy text may not have been meant for me, but that image is not something a warm-blooded man could ever forget—no matter how badly he wants to. I’ve tried to resist her, but I can’t seem to escape Little Miss Suzy Sunshine. Every interaction is rife with tension and animosity, until it boils over, and we cross the point of no return.
That’s when I know I’m screwed, because now when I look at her, all I think is: Mine.
Who knew a simple selfie could be such a recipe for disaster?

The first time I met Chance Jenson, I was into the whole broody-bad-boy thing.
But then he opened his mouth and I quickly realized he’s not just a little moody—he’s the grumpiest jerk to ever lace up a pair of hockey skates. I wasn’t having any part of it. I agreed to cook for his dogs, but promised myself that the only thing he would ever eat are his words.
I spent more than a year doing my best to hate him, but when Chance’s lips land on mine, I feel…conflicted.
I don’t want to want the jackass.
I certainly don’t want to have feelings for him.
Unfortunately for me, my heart seems to have other plans.
What the hell am I going to do?
Alley Ciz is an internationally bestselling indie author of sassy heroines and the alpha men that fall on their knees for them. She is a romance junkie whose love for books turned into her telling the stories of the crazies who live in her head…even if they don’t know how to stay in their lane.
This Potterhead can typically be found in the wild wearing a funny T-shirt, connected to an IV drip of coffee, stuffing her face with pizza and tacos, chasing behind her 3 minis, all while her 95lb yellow lab—the best behaved child—watches on in amusement.
This
felt like the best kind of gift when it landed on my kindle. Hubby and I have
taken the weekend away from our crazy tribe of children and I was thoroughly
enjoying my time of lying down doing absolutely nothing when it popped up and
sent me into a squealing happy mess. After having almost a whole year of our
evil queen threatening to retire and leave us all without her words so it feels
like the longest scariest ride no one wanted to take. And none of us really
excel at the whole waiting patiently thing.
I
really wish I had done a series reread because there are so many characters in
this crazy found family and now they are all wifed up and having babies I felt
like I needed a cheat sheet trying to keep them all straight. I even had a Jase
/ Jake moment where I had to go check which one we were talking about because I
read it wrong.
And
to be honest I really don't remember Chase. I am a terrible Covenette but
honestly with my goldfish memory I was surprised how fast I fell back into the
fam and all the text handles and nicknames. And the cross over with Bette and
Ben was awesome. But I really loved getting to know more of Gemma.
But
before I gush over how much I love Gemma I want to ask why Vince couldn’t have
given Chase a few rounds in the octagon. It's funny but I have read two books
in a row that were vastly different with MMA fighters as secondary characters
and closed off acehole heroes. And I really would have killed to see one of
them get their arses kicked a little. I mean seriously why don’t these guys use
their damn big boy words and think before they have their temper tantrums and
say stupid shit? Luckily once Chase had a come to jesus moment with the guys
and realised what a dumbarse he had been he gave great grovel.
Gemma
was her beautiful inside and out self and I loved that she knew her worth and
didn’t settle for anything but Chases best. And the chemistry between the two
of them was uber hot. As always, I had literal laugh out loud moments, and I
couldn’t put it down from the first page. And I didn’t have to so it was even
better.
RYAN
I’m done with dating.
Happily-ever-after isn’t in the cards for me, so I’m officially taking myself off the market.
Hockey is my mecca.
The arena my temple.
The ice the altar I worship at.
Then…I met her.
Strip me naked and run me over with a Zamboni—she’s the textbook definition of a bad love match.
Amara Miller, beyond beautiful and effortlessly drawing me into her orbit and making it impossible to resist her.
AMARA
It should have been a simple cross-country move.
Instead, it sent me crashing—quite literally—into the captain of Coach’s new hockey team.
Did I mention he was half-naked when it happened?
It doesn’t matter that he’s sexy as sin and the swooniest motherpucker I’ve ever met.
I will not lust after hockey players.
Been there.
Done that.
Bought the maternity shirt.
And Ryan Donnelly? He’s pretty much Mr. Hockey.
The problem is, I’m not the only one enamored with him—my kid is too.
It’s turning into a problem, because this mama doesn’t have time to play games when it comes to our hearts.
Scoring Beauty is a sporty, sexy romcom featuring a hot-mess (at least in her eyes) single mom who’s about to knock this swoony motherpucking hockey player on his very fine behind. This interconnected stand-alone comes complete with your favorite can’t-mind-their-own-business Covenettes, a next generation trying their hands at the matchmaking shenanigans, and a guaranteed happily-ever-after.

Gah I can't believe we finally got Ryan's book. I want to go back and read it again for the first time. Firstly, because Cap is just so sweet and swoony and secondly because Amara was perfect for him. Seriously those two are not just couple goals but also mum goals and man goals and just all the things’ dreams are made of.
Since the first book of Alley's that I picked up I have been hooked and each book just builds my obsession. I think Alley needs to appreciate the fact I'm on the other side of the world and can't raid her trash cans for her thrown out notes. Everything about her words work for me. I always read this book and want to be a Covenette before remembering that my happy place is at home reading because of the lack of people.
But in regard to this particular book all I can say is ……. Sigh. It was just awesome. I loved that Amara was this kick arse single mum to one hell of a cool son. And obviously Ryan wasn't even slightly worried about Amara having said son. The fact that Mav fit in so well with Carlee and Sean just nailed it. Then you have Amara's besties basically being coven 2.0 the relationship was just destined.
However, the absolute best thing was the fact that Amara brought the Winter soldier into things. When Cap started getting all growly and bossy I was even more in lust. Because there is nothing hotter than a really good guy being all alpha and in charge. And now I'm off to jump my own. Kisses

If I wasn't so addicted to Alley Ciz's writing I would absolutely hate her. But I seriously have no self-control when it comes to her books. Almost any other author writes a duet and I wait for the second one to be released before I jump in. Especially after they nearly killed me with the cliff-hanger in their last two books. But no, I just couldn't wait. And now I'm in purgatory waiting until June for the next book.
I'm trying so hard to get a handle on it but damn I feel like a toddler in a tiara having a meltdown.
As a massive fan I went into this knowing that Savvy is the ultimate queen b. The only question really is who could be worthy? And who would be man enough to stand up to the Royals? And I have to say Jasper was all that. He wasn't quite as alpha-hole as I was expecting but that wasn't a negative.
I loved everything about this story. There was so much going on I wasn't sure which bomb was going to go off first and what it would be packed with. I literally sat on the edge of my chair clutching my book trying to get as much reading time in as possible. I loved the secondary characters that were new. I loved getting little snippets of the characters we already knew. And I loved everything Savvy and Jasper.
Having this told in dual point of views made me love Jasper that much more. And I can't wait to see how he reacts to the surprise announcement that the book ended on. But even more, I can't wait to see the Royal’s reaction. I can already sense the epicness of book two, I just wish it was already on my kindle.
If you are new to Alley's books you are going to be happy because there's a whole heap of awesome for you to one click. And since this can be read as a standalone from the earlier books you can do that after you finish this duet.
