MY REVIEW
Bentley is a rookie player on the Austin Rattlers basketball team. He's young (although not THAT young), he's cocky, and he's immediately taken with one of the flight attendants on his first flight. Jolene's not having it, though, as she's been burned by her ex. But Bentley's persistence, and his sweet side, one that's masked most of the time, eventually wear her down and she gives into their attraction. But will living her life in the spotlight of the rookie's life be too much for Jolene? Will she use it as an excuse to end things to protect her heart?

This is a sweet sports romance, with great chemistry between the two leads, but I have to admit that Jolene frustrated me with her negative disposition and her fear of getting hurt. She's really the only low point, though, as everything else is great - the basketball, the chemistry, and especially Bentley, who's sweet, hot and has a vulnerable side that isn't found often in athletes in contemporary romance. This is a good addition the Vi and Penelope's Cocky Hero Club.

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...
