I’ve been secretly in love with my best friend’s dad for months. And now, I’m his intern…
If the head coach of the Toronto Thunder hockey team knew about the dirty fantasies I scribble in my journal, he never would’ve offered me the internship that puts us in such close proximity every day.
Shane Ferguson is twenty-four years older than me, so the fact that I’m obsessed with how sexy and stern he is needs to stay a secret.
But then one night, my journal accidentally falls out of my bag in Shane’s office.
And he reads it.
All of it.
When he calls me into a meeting, I think he’s going to fire me. Instead, I learn that my feelings and fantasies aren’t exactly one-sided. That Shane is going to make all my dirty fantasies come true. That’s he’s going to teach me to be his good girl, just like I wished for.
Now we just have to figure out how to tell my best friend that she’s not the only one who calls him Daddy…
Review:
Somehow this felt like it was a *slightly* slower burn than the first book ( Claimed by the Center ), though it’s only 114 pages so obviously it’s not really that slow 😉 Trust me, once Sadie and Shane get going, they really get going.
Taught by the Coach is once again, exactly what it says it will be (and what Ms Archer says she wants to write)–an age-gap instalove steamy-as-heck romance–this time between a professional hockey coach and his daughter’s best friend. If daddy kink isn’t your thing, you might want to steer clear–personally I think it kind of hits different when the person calling him “Daddy” is besties with a person who has actually called him that for all of her 21 years–and Sadie and Shane really lean into the kink.
If you’ve read the first book in the series, you’ll appreciate the *ahem* slight hypocrisy of Shane giving his daughter and her *only* 14 years older boyfriend grief about their relationship while he lusted after her best friend in secret, but of course you don’t have to have read that one to enjoy this book–or the scene where Lilah and Kincaid find out. 😉 (Don’t worry, that scene is actually pretty low angst, all things considered. No friendships are harmed in the course of this book)
Rating: 4 stars / B
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
