Rendition During Books Pucked (Pucked #1)
With a famous NHL player for a stepbrother, Violet Hall is well acquainted with the playboy reputation of many a hockey star. So of course she isn't interested in legendary team captain Alex Waters or his pretty, beat-up face and rock-hard six-pack abs. But when Alex inadvertently obliterates Violet's misapprehension regarding the inferior intellect of hockey players, he becomes much more than just a hot body with the face to match. Suffering from a complete lapse in judgment, Violet discovers just how good Alex is with the hockey stick in his pants.Violet believes her night of orgasmic magic with Alex is just that: one night. But Alex starts to call. And text. And email and send extravagant - and quirky - gifts. Suddenly he's too difficult to ignore and nearly impossible not to like. The problem is, the media portrays Alex as a total player, and Violet doesn't want to be part of the game.

3.5ish StarsOverall I liked this little ditty but I'm skipping the in-depth review because what annoyed the ever loving crap out of me probably won't bother most folks. Basically it all comes down to 81 mentions of the word "beaver" or a close incarnation. Oh, and 53 mentions of "monster cock" or "MC" for short. That's a whole lot of repetition for a book that doles out a meager amount of character development and awkwardly mumbles over the big time conflict of the story. I will give seriousThis was a hilarious sports-themed romantic comedy that I completely enjoyed. Violet was such a funny narrator as the sister of hockey player, and stepdaughter of a hockey scout, and someone who after a bad experience, has sworn off hockey guys forever. Then she meets Alex Waters and they have instant chemistry. Lots of steamy times in this book, and the author has a hilarious writing voice. Please excuse typos/name misspellings. Entered on screen reader.
4 StarsOverall Opinion: This was a funny, sexy, and easy read. I enjoyed it much more than I was expecting (which is nice because I've been in a funk of 3ish star books). There were many times that I laughed out loud and my husband looked at me like I was crazy...so to me that means it was successful!Storyline: This is Violet and Alex's story. Violet meets Alex when she is attending her step-brother's hockey game with a new team. It is an instant attraction for both of them. After some witty
5 starsYou know, while reading this, I never thought I'd end up adding it to my Favorites shelf. Then I finished it and I realized I'd never read anything like it. And that I couldn't put it down. And what it set to do, it did PHENOMENALLY.Oh Helena Hunting, you crazy naughty girl you. I love you! Not as much as I love Alex Waters's MONSTER...But holy hell, was this book everything I needed. I was on withdrawals after so much hockey goodness from Elle Kennedy's The Mistake and this hit the
Unpopular opinion coming...I couldn't get into this book at all. For me, it was like there was no actual story, just bad sex scenes. I felt like it was really immature erotica with all the references to her "beaver" and his "wiener." The blurb seemed really interesting and I was excited to read this but once I started I was disappointed. The characters were lacking for me and had no character development at all. I didn't like Violet from the beginning, she just seemed really judgmental,
66 mentions of the term "Beaver"12 mentions of the annoying Beaver nickname "Beave"44 mentions of the term "Monster Cock"15 mentions of the annoying Monster Cock nickname "MC"100% over the childish & immature heroine and the weak & mild heroI had high hopes for this one because I love hockey and the blurb sounded good.Instead, I was just left feeling really disappointed.
I didn't realise Canadian's sounded so Irish... 😉This is the kind of audio that I really look forward to. I've read the story, know what's going to happen and I'm prepared for every bump in the road to happiness. I can relax sit back and enjoy the journey without stressing about background noises or my attention drifting. It doesn't always happen, but if there's a lot going on around me, I can sometimes get distracted from the storyline. In Pucked, I was able to follow along well, get a bunch of
