Synopsis

College junior Lucy Washington abides by one rule—avoid risk at all costs. She’s cautious in every aspect of her life, from her health, to her mock trial team, to the boring guys she dates. When a brash, gorgeous jock walks into the campus coffeeshop and turns his flirt on, Lucy is stunned by the force of attraction. For the first time ever, she’s willing to step out of her comfort zone, but can she really trust the guy who’s determined to sweep her off her feet?

He’s always played around…

Entering his last year of college eligibility, linebacker Matthew “Matty” Iverson has the team captaincy in his sights. And it’s his for the taking, if he can convince his quarterback Ace Anderson to give up the starting position. Luckily, Matty already has an edge—the hottie he’s lusting over just happens to be Ace’s childhood best friend. Getting Lucy on his side and in his bed? Hell yeah. Matty is more than confident he can have both, but when he falls hard for Lucy, it’s time for a new game plan: convince the woman of his dreams that she’s not sleeping with the enemy.

Review

So I liked Sacked a lot and while I did very much enjoy the virgin aspect of it and the insta love (because sometimes you just need that in your books), I had no idea how much I was going to enjoy Jockblocked.  Oh goodness, this one was fantastic!  In my opinion the angst was higher this time around and that is what I truly love in my romance novels and Jen Frederick did a great job of bringing it!

So the angst is high mostly because there is a bit of a love triangle.  Throw in the fact that both dudes play for the same football team, a pissed off football coach, and a timid doesn’t like to take risks girl and you pretty much have the recipe for perfection. EEEP!

“I like you, Goldie.  And your insistence on labeling me as risky does not make me like you any less,”

But really, let’s get to my most favorite part of the story.  Matty!  If you know me, you know that I love a dirty talker.  And I ask you, what is better than a big ole burley dirty talking football player?  Not much, folks, not much.  Because, dang.

“Let me tell you how this is going to work.  I’m going to eat you out, then I’m going to slap on a rubber and fuck you until you’re coming so hard you can’t stand up.  You let me know if there’s any part of this plan you don’t like.”

Dirty dirty boy and I loved it.  And although this story was super steamy it moved slow and sweet at first to nicely build the sexual tension.  It was very niiiice!  So we have steamy, and angsty so why don’t we go ahead and add in funny.  Because this story was loaded with hilarious bits.  For instance, Matty and Luce’s banter.  They were hilarious together, snarky and sweet.

“You know this is the Aussie kiss.  Because I’m doing you down under.”

But what really brought the hilarity home for me was Hammer.  Ok, Jen, you have me intrigued and literally dying for this crazy man’s story.  Gimme gimme gimme!

This one was definitely better than Sacked for me!  I have a feeling this series is just going to get more and more in depth, more angsty, more funny with every read.  I have to admit, I am a Jen Frederick fan for sure now.  Cannot wait for more!
