A Review by Diane
Hot as Puck
5 STARS!!!!
A copy was generously provided by the author in exchange for an honest review.
Hot
as Puck is EVERYTHING I love in a romance!!! It was sensual, sexy,
playful and held a lot of emotion from these wonderfully created,
vulnerable characters of Libby Collins and Justin
Cruise. I usually like my heroines to be smart and sassy, but Libby
was almost the complete opposite…..a sweet and demure kindergarten
teacher who is not sure of herself, doesn’t know what she is capable of
and definitely can’t get a handle on what she wants
in a boyfriend, or how to entice them. But you know what? Even with
all these insecurities, I ended up loving and rooting for Libby to get
what she wanted!!! Good thing one of her best friends from 7th
grade, Justin Cruise, who happens to be
a NHL hot as sin, but a crochet hooking (yup the man really loves to
crochet to relax) hockey player is willing to help her “find herself”
and to show her the ropes in how to handle dating and sex. And with
their agreement to be “friends with benefits” what
can possibly go wrong????? Or right as the case may be, as Justin soon
finds out he wants to be the ONLY one that shows Libby these
things…..he doesn’t want to be helping her find that perfect
boyfriend. He wants Libby all to himself…..he just has trouble
realizing it for what it is……falling in love with his best friend!!!
And ditto for our girl Libby. She soon discovers that Justin is the
only hot boyfriend she will ever want, but how do you tell your best
friend that you are falling in love with him????
Oh the dilemma of hiding the hot lust you have for your best friend.
A
wonderful friends-to-lovers story that I couldn’t put down! Laced with
wonderful humor and mild ups and downs in a relationship, I think Lili
Valente has a real winner in Hot as Puck.
Hot
as Puck is the first standalone novel in the Bad Motherpuckers series
by Lili Valente. If the other books to come in this series are half as
good as Hot as Puck, sign me up!! I can’t
wait for the next book in this series to read!!!
Lili Valente has slept
under the stars in Greece, eaten dinner at midnight with French men who
couldn't be trusted to keep their mouths on their food, and walked alone
through Munich's red light district after dark and lived to tell the
tale.These days you can find her writing in a tent beside the sea, drinking coconut water and thinking delightfully dirty thoughts.
