Review / Release Blitz: Boyfriend Material (Hawthorne University #2) by Ilsa Madden-Mills

I’m not sure how long I can ignore the undeniable spark between us.

Boyfriend Material, an all-new swoon-worthy new adult sports romance from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills is available now!


#1 Amazon Bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills delivers an all-new, enemies-to-lovers sports romance, a breathtaking tale of passion, heartbreak, and love…

Skyscraper cheekbones, lush lips, and magnetic topaz eyes.

I’m talking about Eric Hansen.

Rich prick.

Glorified hockey star.

Thinks he’s amazing.

The Golden Boy and I are well acquainted. In prep school he trampled on my heart then kept right on going.

Now, he’s living the high life with frat parties and puck bunnies at Hawthorne University. On the other hand, people barely notice me—unless I’m on stage taking my clothes off. I’m the nobody, surviving in the seedy part of town as I fight to keep my head above treacherous waters.

I’ve snubbed him for three years.

The avoidance game we’ve been playing was working—until he rescues me from a bad guy and claims he wants to help me more.

Hello. I don’t need a knight in shining armor. This girl saves herself.

Yet, I’m not sure how long I can ignore the undeniable spark between us. (It’s not even a spark; it’s a full-fledged, blazing fire.)

Can this hockey player prove he’s boyfriend material, or will our past get in the way?

This steamy romance is perfect for fans of enemies-to-lovers or second-chances. Boyfriend Material is a new adult college romance.

MY REVIEW

Julia and Eric were once a thing in prep school, for a hot minute, until he threw her away. She's avoided him ever since, but one night while in college, he comes to her rescue, and a path is set for a second chance at love, at redemption, at healing, for this perfect for each other couple.

What Julia never knew was that Eric had a completely different life than what it seemed on the surface. Though his family is wealthy and connected, his parents had such high expectations, laid their unexpressed grief for their deceased son on Eric's shoulders, and he was drowning in pain of it all. Now in college when he sees his biggest regret needing help, he also sees a second chance, if he can convince Julia of his intentions, that he won't break her heart again.

Julia has resorted to stripping to pay the bills, pay her mom's medical bills, and she too is drowning in all her pain, in all that life keeps throwing at her. When Eric appears with a helping hand, she knows she needs to take it, but has to guard her heart against him this time.

A sweet, but heavy second chance story with two very tortured leads. I liked each of them and the way they figured everything out. It took awhile, there were definitely some rather large bumps along the way, but they finally got the happiness they deserved. The chemistry is hot, the angst definitely makes itself known, and the secondary cast is around for support and laughs. I am really waiting anxiously for Eric's friends to get their own stories now.
