As the coach’s daughter, dating hockey players is off-limits.
It’s a rule I’ve never had a hard time following…until I meet Kincaid Campbell.
He’s the star center for the Toronto Thunder, a celebrity and a legend in the hockey world. He’s known for his prowess on the ice and his charity work off the ice.
He’s fourteen years older than me, and within minutes of meeting him, I have a raging crush.
An innocent crush isn’t breaking my dad’s rule, though. Besides, a man like Kincaid—rich, successful, and experienced—wouldn’t actually be interested in me, the shy university student who blushes eighty-six times a day and has never kissed anyone.
But every time I’m near him, the air seems to crackle with electricity. And when he rescues me one rainy night, everything changes when I learn that my fantasies about Kincaid aren’t one-sided.
At all.
Now we just have to figure out how to tell my dad that his little girl’s been claimed by the center…
Review:
Alyson Archer kicks off her new series with a bang…several of them, actually 😉 Lilah and Kincaid’s story is a smutty tropefest: age gap, virgin FMC, obsessed (kind of stalkerish, actually–didn’t totally love that, but at least he fessed up to it and it didn’t last long) MMC, instalove, with a touch of forbidden (due to the whole her-dad’s-his-coach part). It’s a quick and entertaining read, heavy on the two MC’s preoccupation with each other and smexy parts, fairly light on everything else–pretty much exactly what it promises to be.
As with Ms Archer’s first book ( Wanted by the Champion ) there is a bonus epilogue if you sign up for her mailing list; as an added incentive, you’ll also be in the loop to find out when the next book (Liliah’s BFF and her dad’s) is due out!
Rating: 4 stars / B
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
