Book Review: Mother Pucker

 

Things that stress out this widowed single mom: high fructose corn syrup, intrusive thoughts about my son getting swept up by a tornado, and the sexiest hockey player to grace this planet.

Oh, and the fact that I’m also said hockey player’s physical therapist. But we’ll lock that tidbit away in the same nightstand as my battery-operated toys.

Moving my son and me across the country to live with my three best friends and our seven children into one dilapidated Boston brownstone should have been the biggest risk I’ve ever taken–not figuring out how to protect my heart, career, and panties while trying to navigate my secret double life.

But Rowan ‘Slick’ Parker is nothing if not hell-bent on taking slapshots at my comfort zone. The more I try to keep things professional, the more he works to break the rules with his charming grin, piercing gaze, and world-class rear end.

Not to mention, he adores my son.

So, I finally give in.

Don’t worry, though, it’s all temporary–a way for us to get each other out of our systems.

But little do I know, ‘temporary’ has a way of leaving lasting impressions on the heart.

My Review

I thought Becket and Liv would be my favorite couple, but Shayla "Shay" and Rowan topped them. I absolutely "ducking" love these two. The witty banter and ooh so hot intimate moments between them! Loved every second of this book. I was laughing the whole time. 

Shay's son, Kai is a great kid; especially putting up with his mom's green smoothies. I like to eat healthy but even I would not drink Shay's smoothie. She is a great mom, and she has great taste in books. She was reading Ablaze, which just happens to be a favorite book of mine by a favorite author. 

Rowan is not only a skilled hockey player but skilled with his tongue as well! He and Shay were bringing the heat. 

I do have to give a quick shout out to one of Shay's other patients, Mr. Howard. He cracked me up. I secretly do believe that he was a circus performer in another life.
