Review of Puck Me Secretly (A Vancouver Wolves Hockey Romance Book 1) by Odette Stone



Rory hates flying. Good thing the hot muscular guy in the seat next to her is there to calm her fears. Even better that he's there when their plane crashes, and carries her off the wreckage. Even better that he promised to be the first to give her a big O, and makes good on that promise later that night at the hotel the airline has put them in after the crash. Bad though that he disappears the next morning. Even worse? He turns out to be the bad boy player on her father's hockey team. The team her father has put her in charge of for a year...


Wow, Puck Me Secretly was a serious roller coaster. So much was thrown at Rory and Max that it's a wonder they made it through. I felt like it was all a bit too much - too much drama, too much going on in the background (and the foreground), and it meant the relationship between Rory and Max suffered a little for all the drama thrown at them. I would have preferred if it were pared down a little. But I liked the two of them, that they were interesting, layered characters on their own, and a great combination when put together. I'm definitely looking forward to more from the Vancouver Wolves.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...

Evan—the guy my parents took in years a...
