Hot As Puck

Book #1 in a 6 Book Series

Book Summary: 

The NHL’s biggest bad boy is about to fall for the virgin next door…

I am the world’s biggest dating failure. We’re talking my last date went home with our waitress kind of failure.

But I have an ace in the back pocket of my mom jeans—my sexy-as-sin best friend, NHL superstar forward, Justin Cruise.

Justin owes me favors dating back to seventh grade, long before he became a hotshot with a world famous…stick. So in return for my undying platonic loyalty, all I want is an easy-peasy crash course on how to be a sex goddess.

How hard can it be?

***

I have never been so hard in my life.

The things I want to do to my sweet, kindergarten-teaching, mitten-crocheting best friend Libby Collins are ten different kinds of wrong. Maybe twenty.

But I’m a firm believer in teaching by example, and by the end of our first lesson, we’ve graduated to a hands on approach to her sexual education: my hands all over her, her hands all over me, and her hot mouth melting beneath mine as I prove to her there isn’t a damned thing wrong with the way she kisses.

Give me a month, and I’ll transform Libby from wall flower to wall banger, and ensure she’s confident enough to seduce any guy she wants.

Problem is… the only guy I want her seducing is me.

Mini Review:

First, I have to point out the crazy coincidence that I had just finished Sylvia Pierce’s hockey series, only to start Lili Valente’s and her book dedication was to Sylvia Pierce! Small world! I absolutely loved everything about this book. Justin’s cocky yet dorky personality, Libby’s wavering self confidence, Laura’s overprotective nature (have every intention of reading her story next). Normally with a friends with benefits deal, the guy talks himself out of it for about as second and then it’s like he never had a doubt. Justin’s sheer disbelief and struggle was so comically entertaining, you almost wanted to see the nervous breakdown before he finally caved. This book was a perfect mix of sugar and spice. The ending was so “choke back tears” sweet that you almost forget some of the plot holes that were never resolved- namely Sylvia and the cat Libby had just adopted. For Sylvia, I don’t know if she comes up again in another story and that’s why her story just kinda fell off but I would have liked to have known what happened there since she wasn’t left in the best situation.
