Power Play Review

Power Play by Alley Ciz
BTU Alumni #1

Synopsis: 

Hockey players are off limits especially ... if they’re on your brothers’ team.

The last time Jordan did that, it ended in disaster. It was easy to promise her brothers she'd never date another one of their teammates again.
Until she meets Jake.
The spark she feels when she spends time with him makes her promise harder and harder to keep.
Surely her brothers would understand breaking this promise if it means following her heart.
Wouldn't they?

Never sleep with a teammate’s sister.

This is the universal rule of athletes everywhere.
Until he meets Jordan.
As soon as Jake sets eyes on her, he wants her.
The goalie's job is to see missed shots and failed opportunities on the ice.
This is one shot he's not going to miss, no matter what obstacles get in his way.

POWER PLAY is a flirty, swoon worthy sexy rom-com and the first book in the BTU Alumni series. It can be read as a stand alone. If you like hockey boys, sarcastic friends, matchmaking K9’s, too-cute-to-handle kindergarteners, fierce heroines and swoony hot as puck Alpha heroes, then you want to get to know these cast of characters. One puck head and a HEA guaranteed.

My Review

My Rating: 3.5 stars

I received an arc in exchange for an honest review before I read the second one for a review. Jordan is transferring colleges to the one that her brother's play hockey for. When she meets up with her brother's at a bar and meets Jake there is instant attraction. Too bad Jordan promised her brothers she would never date another one of their teammates again. As Jake gets to know Jordan the more he likes her. Jordan stands her own against her protective brothers. This felt like a slow burn hockey romance with a little bit of humor from Jake and Jordan's younger siblings and a dash of mystery. The one thing I didn't care for and took a bit of time for me is the way this was written. It was dual P.O.V. which normally I love, but the author tended to repeat bits to get both Jordan and Jake's P.O.V and sometimes it would switch P.O.V between a chapter. I look forward to reading the second one because it was a light read with a HEA. This was the author's debut book so I am sure her writing will only grow better.
