Blurb
Brody
You know you’re having a bad day when you wake up alone in a hotel room and your wallet is missing. And your keys. And when you’ve finished rummaging around the room, you realize your clothes are missing too. All of them. Down to your boxers. Now all you have is what’s on your back.
Absolutely nothing. You’re stark naked. Did I mention I’m in Vegas for the NHL All Star weekend and I’m playing in the game—in one hour?
But I’m a lucky puck because I still have my phone and I call my agent, Bianca Brooks–aka temptation in a pin-striped suit—and she’s ready to save my lucky a$$.
Could this be the start of something special? Or is it the start of my stubbornly sticky reputation for trouble?
Brody is a rookie phenom who is susceptible to gorgeous women and bright lights and might have a habit of running blindly into trouble…
Bianca is his killer sports agent out to make a name for herself. So she bails him out of his troublesome situation. With a catch.
The catch :
His agent is a scorching beauty with a take-no-prisoners attitude and she insists on locking him down–but not in a good way.
Lucky Puck is part of the Portsmouth Whalers hockey romance series and includes many characters from the other books in the series. Take a leap of faith with Brody & Bianca as they navigate a crazy mistake and make it crazier on their way to falling past lust and just possibly into love.
Review
Brody Holden is a star hockey player whose skill and good looks have rocketed him to the top of his game. Though he often fantasizes about Bianca, his sexy and curvy sports agent, he knows she’s off-limits. That doesn’t stop him from teasing her whenever he can—or making poor choices that land him and Bianca in trouble.
Bianca Brooks is torn between hating Brody for his arrogance and falling for his charm. But her mixed feelings won’t stop her from doing her job, which is to protect him and his already less-than-stellar reputation, no matter what. When they’re roped into a fake marriage, they’ll have to decide if the chemistry between them is real or just a fling.
This was a great story! I connected with Bianca right away. She’s trying to build her career in a male-dominated field, and the success of her career hinges on her client. Unfortunately, her client is a sexy young man who’s not even old enough to legally drink. By trying to pull him out of the fire, she gets burned right alongside him.
As much as I liked Bianca, I had trouble liking Brody. Sure, he was fun, flirty, and hot, but his arrogance was a bit too much for me at times. Once he started to mature and make better decisions, I grew to like and understand him better. Brody and Bianca are opposites, yet they fit well together and evened each other out.
The chemistry between them was off the charts. Ms. Queen sure knows hot to write steamy love scenes!
For readers of hockey romance, Lucky Puck belongs on your reading list.
