This is book 5 in the Brit Boys Sports romance series. Finn is a police officer in Seattle. Jana is a paralegal. They meet when Jana is rear ended and Finn responds to the accident. Finn and Jana have several similarities in their lives – both of them had something traumatic derail their original career plans and both of them have scars from a past relationship that ended badly. They are both content in their current professions and content staying away from relationships. The instant chemistry and overwhelming feelings between them throw both of them out of their comfortable niches. In order to get to their HEA, Finn and Jana are going to have to let go of their pasts in order to embrace the love that’s between them but that is not an easy thing. This book has a little bit of everything – sweet moments, strong friendships, sexy times, real life issues, imperfect characters, laugh out loud moments, and so much love all mixed with a low amount of angst. I really enjoyed the interactions between Finn and Jana, all of their emotions including the fear of being hurt, felt real. As an added bonus, the secondary characters were given enough substance to be interesting without managing to overwhelm the main storyline.
Fun story with good friends and I loved the London connection. The Seattle setting was perfectly played with the water descriptions. I can personally attest to the 13 Coins being the perfect place to eat. A family favorite for years as my dad introduced me to it. I have continued to share it with friends.
Enjoyable characters, fun story.
I just love everything she writes, her stories pull you in right from the first page and this was no different. Great read, great story I’m looking forward to reading another in this series now
A great distraction in the crazy world.
Read it in just over one day. Enjoyable read. Loved it
Loved the quirky characters and realistic situations. Have always enjoyed this author.
I was really in to this book and couldn’t wait to see if they (mainly her) could figure it out. But then it just ended.
Love this hot brits series!
01/19/2021 In “Naughty Wish” (nook) Finn and Jana meet in an unusual situation but are quickly smitten with each other. In fact, their chemistry is sizzling. Both are scarred by previous love interests. I liked that both had supportive friends on whom they could rely. This heartwarming story has its tense moments but neither Finn or Jana give up.
I would rate this story as 4-1/2 stars.
The story is well written and keeps your attention throughout the entire book.
It is sexy smouldering hot. The chemistry between the two main characters is off the chart.
It is also packed with emotions that may cause a tear or two to well up.
Jana was one of my favorite side characters in E & Z’s book, she was laugh out loud funny and feisty as hell! She has survived a scandal where she was the other woman and dealt with her ex dragging her name through the mud.
Finn was well on his way to the pros as a star footballer in college, until he was hit by a drunk driver. Breaking both ankles meant it took him too long to recover and he lost out on the dream. He is now one of Seattle’s finest working in the domestic violence division.
These two lovely people are the best together! They joke, laugh, enjoy each other’s company and burn up the sheets throughout the book! I truly enjoyed Jana & Finn’s story!
I kept waiting for more from this book but didn’t find that.
It was a quick read. Somewhat predictable
Didn’t like – didn’t finish.
About 50% desciptions of having sex. Very interesting situation for the story. I liked a lot of the characters and I normally like Croix stories. However, this one had so very much repetitive descriptions of having sex … several pages each time … that the story almost got lost. Much as I liked most of the characters, there were things Jana did that I actually turned me way off.
The only thing I liked about this story is the hot & steamy scenes. Jana, Finn, & the story line didn’t do it for me.
Ms. Croix writes another great one full of romance, chemistry, and great characters. Ever since us fans met Jana in Zoe’s office in “Out of Bounds”, I felt she needed her own story, and she finally got it! I’m so glad she got her HEA with Finn. Speaking of Finn, yummy, yummy, yummy. A hot man in a uniform. I can relate to Jana in why she always wanted him to wear it!
Jana is a funny and quirky woman who always speaks her mind. She also has a hilarious cat named Smokey who has a mind of his own. Finn is a Seattle cop, who is called out to handle a fender bender, where he meets Jana. As their romance progresses, we readers get an update on all the other British “football” players who play on the Seattle Stars. We also get to see Becca and Aidan again from “Just This Once”, which I absolutely love. I always want to know about the characters after their stories end.
Steamy romance with a HEA!
Even though this is the first J.H. book I’ve read, I do have all of them on my TBR list. If they are anything like this one, I’m in love. I loved this book. It was engaging right from the start. Full of hotness too. Jana is one lucky girl. This book is definitely a favorite.
