Loved it and hated it. The posse thing with the group sex was what lowered my rating. By all means if you're into things like that it wouldn't be a bad rating for you but it is not what J expected or hoped for when requesting to read this book. Nonetheless the writing was superb and had a great storyline minus a few things.
This book is tough to review because on one hand I loved it but on the other hand I was kinda grossed out by it too. That said the writing was terrific and the characters were interesting and I really enjoyed the characters and the storyline.
So why was I grossed out? Well Joe/Zoo is this baseball player and he is into easy/casual sex. Which I have no problem with. One nighters, manwhores I m okay with and if thats who he was well I would not have a problem. But he has what he calls a Posse. Which is sorta like groupies but they also have sex all the time with easy other with 3 somes with sharing each other, with nfront of each other. He even goes to a party and they have naked water polo. While he never partakes in this in the story except for letting them touch him. I found it very icky.And he even offers these women to his friends/teammates.
That said beyond that it was a terrific story and he is a wonderful guy. He and Stevie have this wonderful chemistry and I really loved all the characters in the story. It was just the whole Posse thing and the group sex mentioned and how he let his posse touch him that was a major turn off.
Joe "Zoo" Zooker plays left field for the Richmond Rogues baseball team. Zoo is a player with women too. He has a posse of women that follow him around. He has a rule, one night only, no commitment. He comes to Stevie Reynolds rescue but she is not remotely interested in his flirting. She is not impressed with him at all and doles out sass and snarky come backs to him. He may have met his match.
This is part of a series but could be read as a stand alone book. I loved Stevie's attitude. There were some funny lines in this book and Joes t shirts were a hoot. Thank you to net galley for an advanced readers copy.
What a cute,sizzling, and romantic story. Joe and Stevie fight each other every step of the way and that makes for a very entertaining read. The humor and snarkiness that appears in Stevie's vocabulary every time the saw each other made this story flow fast. They both needed to realize what they actually wanted before they could be happy; it wasn't always what they thought so sparks definitely fly. I cannot wait for these stories to continue. Thank You NetGalley and Kate Angell for allowing me to read this book and give an honest review.
Loved this book. It's about time Zoo got his come upance. This was so much fun I didn't want it to end. Kate is such an amazing author and all her books are keepers.
