Three Pucking Words by B. Celeste is now live!
Bodhi Hoffman’s life has always been centered around two things: his daughter and his hockey career.
But then he meets Honor Erikson—a curvy redhead with an aversion to athletes despite being the coach’s daughter. Or maybe, as he learns, it’s just an aversion to him.
Suddenly, the NHL’s best right-winger is wondering if he can make room in his life for the mysterious woman and her service dog. That is, if she’ll let him.
Because the secrets that Honor holds onto are meant to keep the famous hockey player at arm’s length. But fate and her father have other plans.

This book took me a minute to settle into, and it was entirely my kid's fault. But every time I sat down to read it I was interrupted and pulled away so I felt like I didn't connect with the characters. But then I had a few childfree hours, and I found that it was absolutely a me problem and I was dying to see the story play out.
Scarlett was a character that I probably wouldn't be friends with in real life. She was so cynical and jaded and I wanted to shake her a little bit. She had allowed a few things to influence her entire world view, and I just felt like she was too old to be so black and white in life.
Chase was a much more likeable character, but he came across as so young initially. Luckily for me he did a little self-reflection and growth. And I liked that he knew what he wanted and wasn't scared to go after it.

I am so incredibly torn about my feelings on this book. As soon as I started reading I was back at the previous book with River watching Callie and all the things I was anticipating from the little teases of them. And for the first 30 to 50% I thought yes this is going to be a 5 star read,tThis is exactly why I am obsessed with the author's work and then I got annoyed and wanted to scream and rant a little. And then I was locked back in and loving the story but I had that niggle just itching the back of my mind.
River was the perfect hero. I loved how take charge he was and how completely devoted to Callie and Nora’s well being and happiness. I couldn’t get enough of him. And reading him loving on Nora made my ovaries stand up and do a happy dance. He is such book boyfriend goals from the first page.
Now here’s where my issue comes in. Callie started out this strong independent woman and I loved how she was working so hard to provide for herself and Nora. I also felt like she handled Zane being such a douche with grace, and I completely understood why she was reluctant to give River the time of day. And when she first accepted River’s help I was like, “good girl”, but then i kind of felt like she wasn’t doing it with her eyes open. She just said “yes save me” but it felt like she was not really interested in River and I felt like she was taking advantage of his generosity a little bit.
Then the big other man drama hit with Zane being his classic douche self and it hit me that she just kept letting him string her along even though she obviously wasn’t a fan of him. I don’t know, I just wanted her to be as obsessed with River as his actions deserved. And I never got that feeling from her. But maybe that is partially because I am a little obsessed with him myself and no one is going to be good enough.
Anyway I really enjoyed most of the story. I just wanted Zane to get everything he deserved. You know maybe an aggressive case of crabs, an acne outbreak, a massive case of ED and a heaping dose of public humiliation to start with. I also wanted him to KNOW what he had lost and how much of a better man River was. I got so excited the moment River’s sister, Willow’s name clicked and I realised it was Willow and Maverick and I became a whole new fan girl. And I am loving the Hugh and Evelyn drama mixed through and can’t wait to see what is going to wash out from that. The next book can’t come soon enough because the teasing for that has me beyond ready.
The
Aftermath was almost like the perfect extended epilogue you would crave after
putting down The Hurricane. Whenever there’s a second book like this, I always
expect a lot of real-life relationship drama. So, I went into this one a little
anxious about what I was going to get. I was expecting O’Connell’s career
taking a serious upswing to cause drama between them by forced separations and
women crawling all over him so firstly I was freaking stoked that that wasn’t
the case.
This book
started off more focused on wrapping up the loose end from Emily’s past and the
way it happened was very realistic as well as being very heart breaking. But
the way that both Emily and O’Connell dealt with it was absolutely perfect and
I really enjoyed the way they dealt with it both individually as well as
together.
And the
career success that O’Connell had was just cherry on the top of the biggest
sundae. These two went through it all and came out together. Stronger. Closer.
And surrounded by awesome people. I loved this book, but I’ll be honest, I
don’t know if I am going to read the next two books. I really loved the
secondary characters, and I think I will love their stories but I just want to
sit back and bask in Emily and O’Connell’s happily ever after.
After
reading a book that had a fighter as a main character, I got an overwhelming
urge to go find another fighter book to read. So off to GoodReads I went to
check out the best fighter romance lists and this one was near the top. And has
been on my TBR for years. So, I jump into reading it and ironically ended up
midway through it while watching the Paul V Tyson fight.
I can
honestly say that this was exactly what I was hoping to get from it. O'Connell
was the overprotective, possessive fighter I wanted to fall for and from the
first pages I did. He was such a typical example of the heroes in the trope,
and I lived for it. From the second he laid eyes on Emily he was
obsessed.
Emily had
been through hell and was slowly trying to work her way out of it. And watching
her and O'Connell bring out the best in themselves for each other was beautiful
to watch. There was the perfect blend of boxing, chemistry, drama and laughter
that I didn't want to put it down. And I've already bought and downloaded The
Aftermath so I'm off to jump right back in. Bye
