Disclaimer: This Entangled Teen Crush book contains adult language, ice-melting kisses, and a swoon-worthy hero. This fake relationship romance will have you wishing for a hockey player of your own…

Natalie West and Toby Cooper were best friends growing up, on and off the ice. But when Toby’s hockey career took off, their friendship was left behind. Now Natalie has a crazy plan to land her crush—Toby’s biggest rival—and she needs Toby’s help to pull it off.

When Nat asks Toby to be her fake boyfriend, he can’t say no. Not when it means getting his best friend back. But Natalie is all grown up now, and spending time with her—even when it’s just playing hockey together—stirs up a lot of feelings, old and new. Suddenly pretending to be interested in her isn’t hard at all…if only she wanted him and not his enemy.

Winging It by Cate Cameron
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is book # 3 in the Corrigan Falls Raiders series. This book can be read as a standalone novel. For reader enjoyment and complete understanding, please read the series in the order intended.

Natalie AKA "Nat" have been best buds since they played hockey together when they were young kids. Now, on the last year of high school, she asks him to help her win the affections of the cousin he hates.

Toby is disgusted that someone he admires and yes, maybe likes, wants his lousy cousin. Lucky for them Scott is so jealous of Toby that the scheme actually makes sense. They agree to a 2 week plan.

This book has so much going for it! I loved every single page! I felt all the emotions from angry, sad, and elated right along with the characters. Such a great series and a book that is truly well written!

Disclaimer: This Entangled Teen Crush book contains adult language, underage drinking, sexual situations, and crazy squirrels. It may cause you to become a fan of hockey - or at least hot hockey players.

The hometown hockey hero won’t know what hit him…

Karen Webber is in small-town hell. After her mother’s death, she moved to Corrigan Falls to live with strangers—her dad and his perfect, shiny new family—and there doesn’t seem to be room for a city girl with a chip on her shoulder. The only person who makes her feel like a real human being is Tyler MacDonald.

But Karen isn’t interested in starting something with a player. And that’s all she keeps hearing about Tyler.

Corrigan Falls is a hockey town, and Tyler’s the star player. But the viselike pressure from his father and his agent are sending him dangerously close to the edge. All people see is hockey—except Karen. Now they’ve managed to find something in each other that they both desperately need. And for the first time, Tyler is playing for keeps…

***MY REVIEW - - CLICK HERE!***

Disclaimer: This Entangled Teen Crush book contains adult language, swoon-worthy kisses, and sexy hockey players. It may cause you to watch a hockey game...or ten.

Sixteen-year-old Claudia Waring has never kissed a boy. Never been popular. Never been to a hockey game. All that’s about to change. Assigned to tutor Chris Winslow, a prank-loving, gorgeous hockey player, Claudia’s perfectly planned life immediately veers off course. And she kind of likes it. But as fun as Chris is, she knows she'll never fit in his world.

After his latest prank lands him in hot water, Chris has to get serious about school or lose hockey. Not an easy thing for someone as carefree as the defenseman. The biggest problem, though, is how much he wants to help his cute, buttoned-up tutor loosen up a little. But while confidence has never been a problem for him, around Claudia, Chris is all nerves. Why would a girl as smart as her ever fall for a jock like him?

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Cate Cameron grew up in the city but moved to the country in her mid-twenties and isn’t looking back. Most of her writing deals with people living and loving in small towns or right out in the sticks—when there aren’t entertainment options on every corner, other people get a lot more interesting!

She likes to write stories about real people struggling with real issues. YA, NA, or contemporary romance, her books are connected by their emphasis on subtle humor and characters who are trying to do the right thing, even when it would be a lot easier to do something wrong.

This is book # 2 in the Corrigan Falls Raider series.  It can be read as a standalone novel  For reader enjoyment and understanding I recommend reading series in order.  This is best to avoid possible spoilers.

Claudia and Chris meet when she becomes him tutor.  Her counselor thinks she needs more on her college application.  She assigns her to Chris.

Chris is just trying to juggle it all.  He has a mom who wants him to go to college.  He is trying to do what he can to get by.  Can he do more?

The attraction between them is immediate.  The sparks are flying everywhere and others are noticing.  Really good addition to the series with some of our favorite characters thrown in.  I give this story a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP!

I did damn well in my opinion considering that I read all of the books I had planned to read.

And some..

This is my read- list for the last ten days. I had planned to read 6 of them, and just finished the last one on me TBR list.

I am in the middle of making a new list. But thought I would make sense to post what I read, with a short comment on each book. 

Apparently I like doing lists and accounts on books... well I do like lists of anything really, I am that much of a nerd apparently, which still surprises me. I was supposed to be the rebel, you know. Guess my undercover geek might not be as undercover as I hoped.

Back to my shelved list

•   Joni, Underway - Jonathan Harrow,Kelly Oram 
• This is the absolute favourite of the bunch. In fact it's on my favourites of all times list. Joni, Underway resonated with something deep within me. Incredibly beautiful book. 4.5Stars

  Playing with Fire (Hot In Chicago series Book 2) - Kate Meader  

Sizzling and cute romance about the hottest men in town and the fiercest firefighter, ever. 

  His Pretend Girl (An Emerald City Novella) - Sofia Grey  

I stumbled over this on kindleunlimted. It's quite well written, but the storyline is more or less a string of cliches. 2.5Stars

  Seduction's Kiss (The Allure Chronicles) - Alyssa Rose Ivy  

I liked the world building, the character building is done quite well in this short span but I felt like this might be too much of the usual PNR dramas. So I am not sure if I will read more of the series. 3Stars

  Here All Along (The Kelly Brothers Book 7) - Crista McHugh  

A wonderful end to a great series. Story of besties becoming more. McHugh absolutely shines with the character building.I just wish there would be more to come in the series! 4Stars

  Center Ice (Entangled Crush) (Corrigan Falls Raiders) - Cate Cameron  

I am not sure how or why, but I am kinda hooked by Entangled Crush. The first book in the Corrigan Falls Raiders series gave me exactly what I expected. A cute and fluffy fix. Though there were bits that dug deeper, I wish that somehow there would have been more of that. It's rather predictable but a fun read. 3.5Stars

  Magic Shifts (Kate Daniels) - Ilona Andrews  

Well written as always. But sadly the action scenes did overshadow every other aspect of this book.

I listened to the audio of this and in my opinion Renee Raudman can't do any wrong. It's the best way to enjoy an Ilona Andrews novel, seriously. Except for a tad little problem, there was no whispersync available for this instalment. Besides the fact, that I do get a discount on buying both the ebook and the audiobook with that feature, I love it for that fact that I can switch between the audio and ebook seamlessly. Since I didn't get that option I decided to only get the audiobook, which meant it took me several days to finish this.

  Aimee and the Heartthrob (Entangled Crush) (Backstage Pass) - Ophelia London  

Cute and all, but also a lot of been there done that. Very well written mind you! I already got the next book in the series.. so my Entangled Crush obsession's still going strong.

3.5 Stars

  A History of Glitter and Blood - Hannah Moskowitz  

This is a book one is either going to love to bits or not. I wish I would be in the former group, because I think it's quite clever. But I really struggled through this one, mainly because I didn't like the writing style at all. Sadly just not for me. 1.5 Stars

  The Undying Legion: Crown & Key - Clay and Susan Griffith  

Extremely well written: Great action, good character building & fab steampunk gadgets but it does sadly have second book syndrome. It did build up my expectations for the next book and I shall be reading it very soon. 3.5Stars

I shall post my TBR for the coming week this evening..

And that's it for my mememe this week.
