Synopsis

I’m the girl from the school of hard knocks.

Nothing has ever come easy for me. So forgive me if I’m a bit reluctant about Kincaid Griffin – born-with-a-silver-spoon in his mouth, conceited college hoops player. A guy who could get any girl he wants, and yet, is suddenly everywhere I am trying to woo me. The more I protest, the more persistent he becomes.

I’m a lucky bastard.

Let’s face it. As a college athlete, I don’t chase girls – they come to me. I’m as arrogant and cocky as they come, getting nearly everything I want, whenever I want. But there is nothing sweeter than a girl who plays hard to get. And Ainsley Locker is so full of confidence that she knocks me off my feet from the moment I meet her. She’s a challenge. And I like challenges. So I go full-court press to win her over.

But when a stupid mistake turns viral, slam dunking all over my life in a media frenzy, my spot on the team may be in jeopardy, along with my shot at winning the girl.

 

REVIEW

Ainsley has had it tough in life and she has worked hard. Meaning she won’t make it easy for the college superstar, Cade, who is desperate to win her affections. He’s had it easy and all the women flock to him but Ainsley isn’t like other girls and Kincaid is up for the challenge. But will one mistake lead to the end of Kincaid’s easy life and make him lose his chance of ever winning Ainsley’s heart?

“If I ever saw Kincaid again, I think I might be tempted to smack him in his face for being a whiny little bitch. Or run straight into his arms.”

I LOVED Ainsley’s character straight from the start. She works hard for everything she has ever got and she looks after her family, even while being so young herself still. I love that she still has goals for herself and won’t let her upbringing stop her for being who she wants to be. She really is the definition of a strong, reliant and dependable to those she loves and looks after.

“You like what you see?”

“Do you even need to ask? You’re kind of perfection.”

Cade is whole other story!! You could say he was basically the opposite to begin with. Cocky, entitled, thinking everything and everyone should just come to him with ease. But as the story progresses you see his patient and caring side. I feel like he grows and learns as he starts to realise how much Ainsley means to him and he finally works hard for something that is important to him.

“I had to wear her down before she’d finally agree to see me. And second, there’s more to her than just a sexy body. I know she’s smart. Kind. Generous. And she works hard to get what she’s after.”

A really beautiful, exciting and just great feel good romance read! This really was an opposites attract story and in the end I truly loved that these two got together and were made for each other. We have Ainsley’s hard family life that brings drama, sadness and some grit to the story and Cade’s mess up which leaves his future looking not so certain after all. And the feisty, steamy, hot, and not always easy, relationship between Ainsley and Cade kept me completely enthralled and by the end I was crossing my fingers and toes hoping they would end up together! Altogether, an enjoyable, fun read of a college romance.

“Instead of returning the love, I’ve pushed him away, unaccepting of the love he’s so freely given.”
