5 Smooches!
Synopsis
From Emma Hart, the New York Times bestselling author of the Game series, comes a brand new series where the game is realer, the tension is tighter, the sex is hotter, and the stakes are the highest of all…
Two people. Two agendas. Two games.
What happens when the out-there It-Boy of football meets the secret It-Girl of fashion?
As the daughter of Hollywood’s sweetheart, Leah Veronica can’t even buy a coffee without finding her face on a magazine stand, so it’s no wonder she’s launching her first fashion line in secret. With it debuting at New York Fashion Week in just under a month, extra time in the spotlight is the last thing she needs.
The son of the best quarterback the league has ever seen, filling legendary shoes as the L.A. Vipers’ quarterback was inevitable for Corey Jackson. So was meeting Leah Veronica—the first girl to hand him his ass without putting a hair out of place.
Getting the handsome, prickly blonde into his bed becomes his number one goal. But getting the sexy, over-confident footballer the hell away from her becomes Leah’s—at least until she realizes the best way to do that is to give him what he wants.
If only it was that simple.
When Corey discovers who she is, and private photos of Hollywood’s finest find their way online, everything they thought they knew is thrown into disarray.
And when secrets are exposed and hearts are shattered, they have to figure out if they’ve been blindsided by love or reality, and if it’s worth running the extra yard to win the game they never meant to play.
Review
Blindsided is not my first Emma Hart book but it is my favorite. I am so glad that I got an arc of this one. I absolutely loved the cover and the synopsis pulled me right in, so I was super excited! Within minutes I was hooked and I pretty much read the whole book in one sitting.
Corey Jackson is the L.A. Vipers playboy quarterback and Leah Veronica is the daughter of one of Hollywood’s elite. Leah doesn’t want the spotlight or fame. She wants privacy and calm. She has big plans and no one is going to stop her, not even sexy as sin Corey.
I loved Corey so damn much. The man is cocky, really sexy, and alpha. I do love me a football player so he had me from page one and he didn’t let up the entire book. He wants Leah for just one night and he doesn’t plan on giving up and I loved him so much for it!
“Leah Veronica, a test to take, a challenge to be won, a mountain to be conquered.”
Poor Leah. I knew she didn’t stand a chance but she sure did put up a good fight. She was so spunky and self assured. I loved her character so much.
“My head screams, Get off!
My body screams, Get on!
Traitorous little bitch.”
These two had chemistry all over the place. I loved their verbal banter. They made me laugh out loud on many occasions. Let’s not forget to mention that these two are sexy as all get out. This book was fast paced and kept my attention through out. The story nicely sets up future books in this series and I am too excited for the next book! This was a funny, sexy, emotional read that had a little bit of everything complete with HEA. I loved it!
