Sweater Weather [ swet-er weth-er]

Noun: A slang term meaning hockey season used exclusively by the Fulton University hockey team and their fans.

Saffron Briggs—Fulton University’s newest pitcher—hates me. I shouldn’t like that fact, but I do. Maybe too much. She claims I’m not her type, which is ridiculous. There’s a reason they call me Levi “Sexy” Sexton…I’m everyone’s type. And thanks to my dad, who just happens to be her softball coach, I’ll get my chance to thaw out the ice queen. I’m her new tutor, so she has no choice but to spend time with me. It may be Sweater Weather, but I’ll make time to show her what a god I am. On and off the ice.

Levi Sexton—captain of the FU hockey team and my new tutor—drives me crazy. The man has zero boundaries. He doesn’t care that I have a boyfriend, that I’m friends with his sisters or that I don’t like him. And I don’t. Not even a little. Not when he’s winking at me from the ice or when he’s telling me how good I look in his hockey sweater and especially not when he’s kissing me, which he absolutely should not be doing.
And definitely not when I find myself kissing him back.

I’m pretty sure Sweater Weather isn’t supposed to be this hot.


MY REVIEW


Levi's a hockey god, cocky, arrogant and a player on and off the ice. He's used to women throwing themselves at him so when a new student comes to campus and doesn't give him anything but ice, he's thrown. He wants her, wants the challenge and the chase of getting her. Being assigned her tutor now gives him an edge, a way to wear her down and climb over her walls. But what does he do when he realizes he wants more than just her body, that he wants it all?

Saffron "Saffie" is so not impressed by Levi "Sexy" Sexton. Their very first meeting has her back up and her rolling her eyes at his obvious cockiness. So when he's assigned her tutor, she's even more unimpressed. But as they spend more time together she starts seeing the real Levi, and she likes him. Her boyfriend probably won't like him though...


I have to admit I did not like Levi for about 90% of this story. His reputation is well deserved and I couldn't stand the way he thought of women and the language he used to describe them. Thank God Saffie came along to bring him down a peg or two, though, and make him work for her. I love her, her dismissive attitude toward him at first, her strong backbone and the way she knew what she wanted and worked for it. She alone is the main reason I can give this 3.5 stars. Levi sort of redeemed himself by the end, but I still felt Saffie deserved better. The story itself is fun, though, and Saffie in it makes up for Levi's douchiness.


About the Author
Mandi Beck
Writing stories that are sexy, sassy and a little bad assy

USA Today Bestselling Author, Mandi Beck has been an avid
reader all of her life. A deep love for books always had her jotting
down little stories on napkins, notebooks, and her hand. As an
adult she was further submerged into the book world through
book clubs and the epicness of social media. It was then that she
graduated to writing her stories on her phone and then finally on a
proper computer.

A wife, mother to two rambunctious and somewhat rotten boys,
and stepmom to two great girls away at college, she shares her
time with her husband in Chicago where she was born and raised.
Mandi is a diehard hockey fan and blames the Blackhawks when
her deadlines are not met. Ask her who her favorite hockey player
is and she’ll tell you that he calls her...mom.

My book boyfriends go with me everywhere. I prefer them tall, dark, and handsome, but I don’t discriminate. They sweep me off my feet and are always there when I need them—in my purse, in my car, and even in my bathtub. Book boyfriends may not be real, but at least they won’t break my heart… or get another girl pregnant. I don’t do relationships. I get one whiff and run in the opposite direction. It took me seven years to mend my broken heart, and I’m not about to hand it over again. That’s why I can’t fall for Beckett. With his Clark Kent glasses and brooding stare, he’s a superhero in disguise. And his superpower? Melting panties with a single ...

Review: Winter Interlude: An American Revolutionary Novelette (American Revolutionary Tales 2) by Regina Kammer

Review of Winter Interlude: An American Revolutionary Novelette by Regina Kammer Captain Samuel Taylor and Lieutenant Patrick Hamilton recall their first steamy encounter, which was a MFM threesome in a brothel. It morphed into more and now the two are contemplating their futures with the women they love, and their futures with each other. If you think times are hard for the LGBT community now, think of how hard they were during the American Revolution. Winter Interlude is well developed, which is surprising given its short length. I am so interested in knowing what is to become of Samuel and Patrick's forbidden relationship. Do they stay together? Or do they go their separate ways, and live out their lives with their women? Now that they've admitted their love for each other, how impossible would it be for them to be without each other? I have to know, now! If you like MM fiction and/or historical fiction, I highly recommend you give Winter Interlude a read. It...
