Review: If You Want Me (Toronto Terror #2) by Helena Hunting


🩷💚 IF YOU WANT ME 💚🩷

Toronto Terror, Book 2

LIVE NOW!



A standalone age-gap, dad's best friend's hockey romance.

There’s no one more off limits than my best friend’s daughter.

Peggy Aurora Hammerstein. The Toronto Terror’s unofficial team princess. I would never do anything to mess with our team dynamics this late into the hockey season, but seeing her work in the front office changed something for me.

I see her as she is now: a powerful woman with ambition for miles. When I hold her against me, she fits perfectly.

Her little flirts and taunts push my buttons, if she doesn’t stop–my control just might break.
But I can never cross that line. I can never know what it could be to call her mine.

I’ve never wanted anyone more than Aurora and no one can ever know.

*This is Hollis Hendrix's standalone novel. If you want to meet Hollis before you read this book, check out If You Hate Me, Rix and Tristan's story.


MY REVIEW


Aurora has a little problem - she has a huge, forbidden crush on her dad's best friend and teammate, Hollis. And ever since a little uh, incident, she's been noticing heat in his eyes when he looks at her, even though his words say something much different. She knows her dad would have a coronary if he ever found out anything ever happened between them, so if something does...they'll need to keep it a secret even after Hollis realizes they need to tell Roman.


His Princess may think he doesn't reciprocate her crush, but she couldn't be more wrong. She also couldn't be more forbidden to him, so he's tried to put boundaries in place. Those boundaries are having an adverse effect on their friendship, though, and he doesn't like that she's been avoiding him. And when he can't stand it any longer and gives in, he knows it's going to complicate things if her dad ever finds out. But he just may find that she's become even more important than even his friendship with Roman.


I love Rix and Tristan from If You Hate Me, but I think I love Aurora and Hollis even more. The forbiddenness is yummy of course, but what I love so much is that they're both just so sweet, and so perfect for each other, even though Hollis was in denial for so long. Once they gave in, there was no way they could go back to the way they were, and it was pure inevitability that they'd end up together, even though they'd have to face Roman's wrath first to get to their happy ever after. I'm not normally an age gap fan, but here the gap isn't that large, thanks to Roman's having had Aurora while he was very young, and the two have been close and in each other's lives for a long time. Forbidden, age gap, hockey, and steamy tension and chemistry = a fun, delicious and heartfelt addition to the Toronto Terror series. These hockey men are sexy and just waiting for love to find them, I'm impatiently waiting for the next one to fall next.

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...
