Waking Olivia: A College Sports Romance (The Langstrom Brothers Book 1)

Product Information

I don't want that girl on my team. From the moment she walked through Peter's door, I knew it. The music from "Jaws" could have been playing and it wouldn't have felt more ominous.

The athletic department is housed in a vast building that dwarfs almost any other on campus. It lets you know in no uncertain terms what matters most at East Colorado University. I suppose I should be grateful for this fact since it's the reason I've got a scholarship. In other news, this book has absolutely zero diversity or representation 😍. Gay people are mentioned once, kind of randomly, and only to serve the purpose of determining someone's...decency or, moreso, indecency? and so on. It may not be obvious but I did love him. When he wasn't a sexy asshole, he was sweet, and caring, and still sexy. He felt trapped and tried belatedly to appease his father, but this obsession almost cost him everything. If only he'd get rid of his girlfriend sooner, if only if only if only... Will made her a big impression from the first moment, but he was such an asshοle toward her and that was bothering her... I would do anything to fix this for you,” he says quietly, “and it kills me that I can’t. Tell me what to do.”

Part 1: Storyline of Waking Olivia

When I am attempting to sprint, my head actually jerks to the right like those club idiots from SNL. Seven words to describe Will Langstrom: Loyal, nurturing, moody, meek, responsible, conflicted and confused. This is just one of the first signs that shows he has absolutely zero respect for women, especially using a woman who just went through something like birthing a being, and using it as an insult. Keep in mind that this man ended up wanting and having children with Olivia. Olivia had secrets about her that she had best kept hidden, and also, the fact that she was attracted to her coach added to the enigma about her. Will Langstrom The male narrator must have been drunk or bored out of his mind or.. I don't know, he maybe just wanted to go to bed to sleep..,. The only times he sounded awake were his high tones which were even more annoying. Not to mention he has this older voice which was not something I was looking for a 20 something guy's character. And what was really annoying: his parts of this recording were much lower speak of volume so I ended up turning up and down the volume between the male and female narration parts. Trust me, it gets old after 2 hours. And this one took more than 10 hours. Definetely not his fault, someone should have been paying attention to this aspect at the studio.

The words console me, momentarily. Peter McEwan thinks I'm a diamond in the rough. That's got to be worth something. Separation:Yes, but really short The h runs away because the H's ex threatens to expose their relationship to the school and get him fired

Seven words to describe Olivia Finnegan, Finn: Captivating, smart, lonely, private, complex, tormented and broken. Until the day that Will is starting to realize that Olivia had serious problems that are keeping her behind of becoming who she really should to be... He has no idea what my extracurricular activities really were. How they were so much worse than what he's imagining. How I couldn't stop them if I tried. And believe me, I've tried. The leading female runners only have 15% body fat," I reply pointedly, looking at her tray. Erin isn't fat, but she could be thinner. Her extra pounds will drag the team down, and I already resent her for it. Yes," she chirps, digging into that disgusting pile of wet meat on her tray. I flinch, and yet I watch. "I've dealt with worse than you. You should see my brother. He's been in and out of rehab so many times it's like his second home. Maybe it's even his first home. And when he's using or coming down or detoxin, he's the biggest asshold you've ever met."

Olivia's sleep issue and her past that caused it is the star of the book. Olivia's problem is complex, and there's no easy solution for it. If you think sleep walkers have problems... pssst... Meet Olivia. It's a great plot point. I can't remember the last time that a book hooked me the way this one did. It's not often that you love both the main characters so fiercely."-Becca Reads a LotSee what I mean? I mean, I am glad we got dual perspective though, that's a positive, but the music from Jaws? Come on.
