Product Information

He’s had everything served to him on a silver platter, including endless strings of women, and apparently, I’m up next. I stare down at the exceptionally large hand covering my torso, keeping me sturdy, and a shiver of anticipation dances down my spine at the words whispered against my ear.

The heroine’s repeated monologue of “ I have never been loved, and that’s all I ever wanted” got pretty old, pretty fast. Today’s one of those rare Saturdays where hockey doesn’t exist for our team, and instead of spending it at home in my sweats while I deep dive into a Disney marathon and an XL pizza, I’m walking through a blustery night, heading to a fucking surprise birthday party. I love him to bits, but if I were a single female, I’d probably want to rip his dick off and ram it down his own throat. The cameras pan my way, my vision bursting with flashing white lights as I slink so far down in my seat, fingers creeping up my face, burying it in my hands. There’s an awful lot of heat rolling off her body when I sidle up next to her, and I’m crediting the blush she’s still wearing, the only telltale sign she’s aware of how close in proximity I am to her.Now I’m sure she’ll be one of those crazy hockey moms, the kind who berate the refs until inevitably getting red-carded. Book four will be about Jaxon (all of the aforementioned men’s best friend and teammate) and Lennon. My mouth hangs as the puck whizzes by the goalie’s head, his catcher coming up a split second too late.

You spent the better half of your birthday party reiterating him being bad news and telling me not to fall for it. Still, it’s cold as fucking balls, I’m recovering from a hangover, I spent five-and-a-half hours on a plane today playing euchre with my teammates, and I lost every goddamn game except one.And lastly and probably most importantly, the relationship between those two, made me feel nada, zilch. It's also predictable that the main character will be shown as a better parent compared to the actual parent, with the child obviously favoring the main character. I’m not interested in dating for the sake of not being alone, nor fucking just for the sake of feeling good. Connor’s wearing a tiny version of my jersey, big headphones covering his ears, and when Rosie points to me, a smile ignites his face.

Too bad for him, Olivia is hell-bent on keeping him at arm’s length, with no intention of giving into his charms. A giggle slips past my lips without my permission, and I’m thankful to leave the conversation behind when the game finally starts. While I did almost give up in the first 15% because of how nauseatingly sweet Adam was (I was seriously embarrassed for him); the man was an absolute SIMP from the beginning.Please don’t ever try to convince yourself any part of you isn’t just right, because to me, it’s everything. She reaches out to me, eyes wide with fear, and I lurch forward, catching her with an arm around her waist. Her body language, the nerves that make her fidget under the heat of my stare, it doesn’t match her snarky comebacks, and somehow it only makes her more intriguing. I turn in his arms and kiss his sleepy face, his eyes still closed, dark lashes resting against his cheekbones. i had a really, really bad experience with 'Consider Me' and i hoped that the cringy, too sweet dialogues would vanish with the author’s 3rd book but oh, how wrong was i.

The air around us zings with electricity with another step forward, and Olivia’s spine straightens for only a moment, followed quickly by a quiver that shakes it.I repeat, releasing her waist, slipping my hand over her hip before prying her fingers off my forearm.
