5 BIG WILD STARS!
"When I was with him, there were no consequences."
THIS BOOK WAS SO MUCH FUN!!! I HAVE SUCH A BIG SMILE ON MY FACE RIGHT NOW!! Do yourself a favor, and READ THIS BOOK! It will make your heart so happy and give you all the warm fuzzy feels!
"I'm sorry this isn't easier," he murmured, lessening my worries enough that I could answer his apology with an edge of playfulness.
"Nothing to apologize for...that was the best goodbye kiss I've ever had."
SO. Our story is told from Kinsley who has just sworn off men after being cheated on twice.
"Cheat on me once, shame on him. Cheat on me twice...what the actual fuck is going on?"
After that whole debacle, she decides to remain completely and utterly focused on Soccer, and she's training big time for the Olympic level team. Then at a party in comes Liam Wilder....BEYOND SEXY. POST-BAD BOY STAR SOCCER PLAYER...and unfortunately OFF LIMITS. Like seriously OFF LIMITS. He's got a pretty bad reputation but more than that..he's Kinsleys new soccer coach! He's a ridiculously talented soccer player, and to try to fix his reputation, he begins volunteering for the girls soccer team. But they meet at a party when a drunk Kinsley is out celebrating her birthday with her new team and the tension is STEAMY! The chemistry is UNDENIABLE.
"What did you get for your birthday?"
I'm still holding out that you're actually a stripper gram for me..
"Well," I looked down at my empty hands, "I got this Birthday crown?" I said it like it was a question because I wasn't sure that it counted. "My mom always gets me something elaborate, but her package didn't make it here today from Aspen."
Wow, I really did sound pathetic by that point.
He nodded with narrowed eyes, but he didn't respond to the comment. He crossed his arms tighter, forcing my gaze down to his sexy tattoos. They stretched across his bicep on either side, but only the ones on his left arm dipped below his shirt sleeve. It was a tantalizing glimpse, but I wanted to see more. I knew from photos that they drifted up to his chest and back.
"I'll show you mine if you show me yours," I murmured cheekily, referring to his tattoos, of course.
I was seriously playing with fire but that's what happens when I drink too much and the world puts me in front of the sexiest man alive. No seriously, I think last year People Magazine named him Sexiest Man Alive.
"I don't think that's a good idea," he said.
Wow. Completely denied. That stung more than my face smashing into the car console. So why was he still standing in front of me, blocking me from talking to anyone else? It was all too confusing for my intoxicated brain to understand.
"That's good. I couldn't show you where mine is anyway," I answered with a sly grin.
I loved Kinsley!! She's kind of a fun partyer in the beginning but I loved her character development throughout the course of the novel. She loves to have fun but she knows when enough is enough. She takes soccer extremely seriously and that's one of the things I loved about her. She was strong, determined and wouldn't let ANYTHING or ANYONE slow her down. Her comments were also hilarious and I loved being inside her head for this story! She's hysterical! And I LOVED the Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, and Hunger Games references! Such a great touch!
If only we actually were in Harry Potter. I'd totally Crucio her ass. Yeah, that's right. I'd use one of the Unforgivable Curses. Come at me, Ministry of Magic.
So many laughs in this book! And don't even get me started on Liam Wilder...
*fans self*
HES SO SWEET. HES SO CARING. HES SOOOOOO GORGEOUS AND UGH HES SO PERFECT!!! I'm still SWOONING over him!!
"My daughter has talked my ear off about you for the past few weeks now," she admitted and then I was the one with flushed cheeks.
Liam's cool gaze slid toward me.
"She's exaggerating. I hardly mention you at all," I winked.
Liam glanced back to my mom wearing a cheeky half smile. "That's not surprising to hear. You're daughter is definitely in love with me, Mrs. Bryant. She hasn't told me yet, but she will soon."
Their relationship was my favorite to read about!! Yes it's forbidden, but the pay off is so wonderful! I loved the sneaking around, and how they did try to fight it briefly and then I loved how it blossomed into this exhilarating, passionate and sweet romance. They go through a lot and I loved to see them support one another. Even when people were trying to tear them down. They were also super playful which I thought was ADORABLE! I couldn't get enough of it and I was completely swept away in there love story!
He grinned wickedly, ditched his shirt, and made to chase after me. Damn his soccer training. He was much faster than I was. I ran down his hall laughing as I dodged his hands, then I hid behind the couch, faking to dodge left and right. He called my bluff and caught me as I tried to run away.
"Mercy!" I squealed as he wrapped his arms around my waisted and picked me up.
He was setting me back down on my feet when Becca and Penn walked in. Becca eyed us curiously, but Penn just laughed and shook his head.
"What the hell have you two been doing while we've been changing?" Becca laughed.
I winked. "Playing chase. I'm much faster than Liam."
He wrapped his hand around my waist and squeezed. "Maybe you should train me then."
SO MUCH CUTENESS!!!!!
Another aspect of this that I really loved was the friendship between Becca and Kinsley and Emily! I loved how much interaction they had with one another and how they bonded even more as the book went on. I loved how they always had each other's back no matter what! It was so refreshing to read about that kind of strong friendship.
Overall, I highly highly recommend you pick this one up. Especially if you're looking for something light and fun! I was so addicted to it that I plowed through it in like 2 days and it was awesome. I couldn't get enough of it! When I wasn't reading it, I wanted to be and I kept thinking about it! Time disappeared when I read this and it was wonderful. I would go to sleep practically hugging my kindle! I love when that happens with books! This is a new favorite for sure! I didn't even realize how long it was because I just flew through it so quickly and in fact, I wish it was LONGER! I could read about this characters forever! This story just made my heart so so happy and I'm still smiling thinking about it!! I can't wait to read more from RS Grey!
She believed she could, so she did.
