I absolutely love this series. Once I start reading I didn’t want to stop. I was so excited too read Lukas & Faith’s story. Lukas where too begin, he is sweet and dreamy and will definitely make you swoon. Lukas & Faith together are sweet, hot and sexy and you can’t help wanting more of them. Love their story and their ending was perfect. Another 5 Star read that any hockey fan must read.
Once I started reading this book I was totally immersed in the Shark’s family and felt like I was apart of the story. I did not want it to end. Lukas was dreamy, swoon worth, loving, and to top it off he changed his “wild” behavior for Faith. Faith is sweet, and so lovable. Their chemistry and connection was beautiful. I adored every single second of this sweet journey with Lukas and Faith. Samantha Whiskey never disappoints.
3 1/2 stars. Lukas was so amazing. I loved how he recognized that he wanted Faith and knew he had to make changes. And he did it, full stop. He was all in. My issue was Faith. She never noticed the changes that he made. When Lukas finally made his move she was receptive but did not trust anything he said. No matter how many times he told her and showed her that she was his endgame, Faith acted like she didn’t know where they stood. Honestly, it was a bit annoying to have her continuously question Lukas’ motives and where his head was at when he told her over and over again. Also, I could see the major conflict coming a mile away. I was hoping Faith’s reaction would be different and the issue would be solved with her believing in Lukas and standing by him. But alas, it unfolded in the common way this issue usually does. Not bad, just wish the plot was a bit less cliche.
Each book of this series is just as good as the previous. Each keeps me gripped and leaves me wanting to jump straight into the next. I couldn’t possibly pick my favourite, but Wheeler would be one I’d pick up to re-read first as I loved the relationship that developed between Faith and Lukas. My favourite scene is definitely right at the start when they’re both at the masquerade ball and something finally happens. It had the feeling of a historical romance and I’d love to see what Samantha Whiskey could do with a historical romance! Another highlight for me was Lukas speaking Russian. It made him even hotter and the author gets the balance just right as she has him speaking Russian to Faith at the perfect moments.
Wheeler can be read as a standalone, just like any of the books from this series, but I would recommend reading them in order so you get the amazing opportunity to meet some wonderful characters who you then catch up with in the next books as they pop in to say hello
*I voluntarily reviewed an advance complimentary copy of this book
Samantha Whiskey is winning streak with WHEELER the eighth book in the Seattle Sharks series. Lukas Vestergaard hires his best friend Eric Gentry’s little sister, Faith, as his personal assistant. He struggles with keeping her off limits. This contemporary sports romance is suitable for adult audiences.
I love Lukas. He reminded me of Henrik Lundqvist: always well dressed, with model looks. They are both Swedish, but Lukas is not a goalie. Lukas is about to launch a new clothing line called Adrenaline. He needs to hire a personal assistant to help his work load. Lukas has been interested in Faith for Years, so he is hesitant to hire her.
Faith is a fun heroine. She is a student at the University of Washington. She wants to start a concierge public relations firm. She becomes Lukas’ personal assistant to get experience and the finances to pursue her goal. She is also attracted to Lukas but plans to keep it professional. I love that after working together they truly get to know one another.
The plot was entertaining and skillfully executed. Lukas and Faith have great chemistry and banter. I love that Faith calls him out on stuff. They are believable. They have very human emotions like lacking confidence at times. The last chapter before the Epilogue was perfect. It put a huge smile on my face. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

Omigod… just *sigh*
Samantha has a way of making you fall in love with every Shark. I thought all the books prior to this were fantastic but HOLY SHIT I’m in deep with this one.
There is something magical about a woman handing her v-card to a man, someone they love. And these two were exquisite
From the Brother’s Best Friend to the P.A to the lover, the burn was slow but oh so satisfying. And the way he used Swedish…. it was insanely sexy.
This book blew me away, it had me hooked -staying up FAR past my bedtime so I could finish it. It made me laugh, it made me hope and after reading some of those scenes, I’m pretty sure I’m pregnant lol… so freaking hot.
I take my hat off to you, Samantha Whiskey
Another fabulous addition to the Shark series
The 8th book in the Seattle Sharks series has you on the edge of your seat and not daring to look away from the action just in case you miss the game winning shot. Lukas has found his end game, the one that makes him want more than a one night stand but Faith is his best friend’s little sister. Lukas will steal your heart as this man shows us how far he will go to prove to Faith she is all he wants and the only one he sees. Their story is captivating, action packed, damn hot and oozing with passion and romance. A love story about fighting for what you want and never giving up when that one person is everything.
From the moment they met Faith Gentry found her way into his head and his heart, and he knew from that day that he would never be able to let her go. But acting on his attraction for her would do irreparable damage to his friendship with her brother, and their team, so he set his feelings aside and started to clean up his act. He figured that if he could present himself as a changed man, worthy of her, that maybe her brother would be able to see that they truly belonged together.
Now nine months later he is ready to make his move, but the question is, is she ready for the new man waiting to win her heart?
From the very first page, Wheeler pulled me in, had me addicted, and overwhelmed me with swoons and feels! This newest addition to the Seattle Sharks series was full of angst, emotion, passion, drama, and came with a uber sexy hockey god that totally stole my heart! I loved meeting Lukas and Faith, their captivating love story had the temperature rising and my toes curling from start to finish, dare I say they are my new favorite couple in the series!
