Hustle…..The title says it all. Oh god Vinnie I just want to reach into the book and pull him into my world. He is my favorite Gallo. This book was kind of a slow burn for me. I devoured it in one sitting and plan to read it again very soon. Have you ever read a book and it just put you in an incredible mood? This book did that for me. I loved the plot, writing and everything about it. I can’t help but get lost in the amazing worlds Chelle creates. This is one series you don’t want to miss.
neither Vinnie nor Bianca can keep eyes to themselves, “when I bring my gaze back to his, he’s very much amused by the fact that I was checking out his well-defined package” Vinnie is just so honest, “yeah, and the thoughts weren’t always pure, but damn, they were hot.” I really loved Vinnie and bianca together:
“You can’t use your magical ***k on everyone.” She laughs.
“While that thought is both disturbing and funny, that’s not what I’m talking about.”
I loved rhis book, I fell in love with Vinnie and I have to say so far this is my favorite book in the series
How much fun was it to write Vinnie’s story? That is what I kept thinking as I read this. Vinnie has appeared in the Southside Gallo books. He has been the golden child, the sexy football player, and well just a player. He met his match with Bianca. I was dying to meet the woman to bring Vinnie to his knees, and she does. I love how she does not fall for his panty dropping smile and perfect body (well at least not right away). It’s great to see him all tangled up. I love that he got involved with Bianca’s work (HOT HOT scenes there!). The Gallo family is present once again in Hustle. I absolutely loved this book. Always love me a hot football player.
In this book we have Vinnie, who is the baby of the Gallo siblings. You don’t need to read the previous books in the series, as they are all built as standalones. However, it is nice to know some of the characters.
Vinnie Gallo’s the hottest rookie in professional football. Vinnie has always been great at football, even in his younger years. Vinnie has been picked up by the Chicago Bears as the starting quarterback. Vinnie is moving into his new place, when he runs into a very beautiful woman. Someone he can’t take his eyes off of.
That woman of course is his new neighbor, Bianca Hernandez. Bianca has lived in the building / penthouse and loves it. She doesn’t want Vinnie thinking he can walk all over the nice apartment complex just because he is sexy and good looking. Bianca throws down the rules pretty quickly. She also thinks she’s immune to Vinnie’s charms. She’s not impressed by the glitz, glamour, or fame, but after a six month self-imposed break from men and sex, she feels her resistance slipping. Bianca is a very successful romance writer. She works from home writing daily. She doesn’t like being distracted by anything.
Vinnie has been stalked by the owners granddaughter – Tracie, for months now. He is tired of her an always having to defend himself against her. Vinnie tells his head coach, that he has a girlfriend and is tired of Tracie and they need to do something about her. The coach asks him to bring his girl to the weekends party so everyone can meet her and that the crazy Tracie can see he is with someone. Vinnie agrees but isn’t sure Bianca will accept the invitation.
Bianca needs a date for her parents 30 wedding anniversary party. When she hears Vinnie out on his proposal she also asks him for a favor, a date to her party. They both agree to be each other’s dates. However, neither of them realize how strongly they are drawn to each other.
Will Bianca be able to finish her book while being so close with Vinny? Will Vinny be able to be a star quarterback while being with Bianca? Will Tracie hurt Bianca? Will Tracie hurt his career before it even starts?
We don’t see much of the Gallo family in this book as we have seen in the past few books.
I did receive a free ARC copy of this book. I am freely leaving an honest review.
Let me just start by saying the cover to this book is HOT! Secondly, I love a good sports romance. This book is part of the Men of Inked series and follows the story of Vinnie and Bianca. I really REALLY enjoyed this story. It was fun, it was steamy, and it was written perfectly for me. The author has written such a fantastic book, I never wanted to put it down, I never wanted it to end!
Vinnie is an footballer who just landed his first team. His character is incredibly swoon worthy!!! I never once got the playboy vibe from him. I found him so sweet and caring towards Bianca, he seriously is the perfect guy and Bianca has hit the jackpot.
Bianca is a writer. She has had a difficult past which has shaped her for the future. She is great! She is a feisty and strong character which I love.
This book has it all! Swoon worthy moments, steam, and a little problem that just wont go away. I read this book quite quickly and I absolutely LOVED the ending!!! I finished this book with the biggest smile on my face!
This book was nothing but PERFECT!!!!
Vinnie is a big time new hot shot professional football player and Bianca is a professional romance author…
the two of them happened to run in to each other in Vinnie’s new apartment building and guess what?!
They are neighbors!
But Bianca has sworn off men for at least a year… So how could this possibly work?!
You will have to read to find out but let me tell you this book had me laughing out loud! The banter between the two of them is just great! The chemistry is sizzling and let me completely satisfied!
This was definitely one of those books that I couldn’t put down once starting!
Loved loved loved it!
5 stars Chelle Bliss!
I love every Gallo and they just keep getting sexier and sweeter. Vinnie is the youngest Gallo and just became my favorite. I love Bianca & Vinnie together and of course when they are together they are smokin hot. Vinnie Gallo is perfect and downright sexy and will definitely become your next book boyfriend. Another brilliant sexy 5 star read that I didn’t want too stop reading.
Oh Vinnie…. he’s the baby but boy is he all man! We know him as a playboy but he really shows he’s grown into quite the gentleman. And Bianca….. well she fits absolutely perfect for him and the Gallo family. This story was sweet and sexy with a good storyline.
So love Vinnie. This series is so good but I think Vinnie has been my favorite. I highly recommend this series and definitely this book. Couldn’t put it down. The Gallo family is so entertaining. I love the banter between the family and their spouses. Makes these stories so much more fun to read. I love escaping into the Gallo family world.
Chelle has brought us another great book. I have loved reading about the Gallo brothers and sister but it was good to see a book come out about Vinnie. If you have not read any the previous books do not worry this is a standalone.
I think Vinnie was deeper than people gave him credit. Though he appeared to be a playboy I think there was so much to him and I truly think he wanted something more. I love how he went after something he wanted and will not stop until he has it.
I understand why Bianca was standoffish and did not trust herself when it came to man. I understood why she swore off man. I love the fact that when Vinnie walked into her life he was able to start tearing down those walls she had built. She was everything she needed and more.
This was truly a great book and glad I got a chance to read the book.
Y’all ready to meet the hottest, smooth talking Gallo yet?? Brace yourself and be prepared for the “Vinnie Gallo effect!”
Awesome
Absolutely loved Vinnie and Bianca’s book! Vinnie is my favorite Southside Gallo!! Bianca is his perfect match a sassy take no crap heroine. Can’t wait for more!! Definitely recommend this book
This story just had all the feels from start to finish. I was surprised how super sweet and thoughtful Vinnie was. I knew he’d be the charmer of the siblings but he was just so gorgeous to Bianca.
I liked how low angst the story was especially after Angelo’s book. Its got its twists and turns but the main focus was the progression of their relationship. They had really hot chemistry, Vinnie’s dirty mouth was something else, he certainly knew how to raise Bianca’s temperature!
It’s a great read, I finished it in one sitting and loved every page.
5 stars
I’ve been waiting, not so patiently for Vinni Gallo and was so glad to have him in my hands. I love my gallo men but when I got glimpses of Vinnie…I needed him like yesterday, lol
I was not disappointed, Bianca and Vinnie were perfectly written and I loved everything about them and the book. I love me some gallo men and I hope they don’t go anywhere ever.
Thanks again Chelle for your amazing words.
Vinnie and Bianca don’t get off on the right foot, but Vinnie can’t get her off his mind and her name is the first one he thinks of when he tells his coach he has a girlfriend to help get rid of his stalker, he only hopes Bianca will agree to help him. Bianca agrees to help Vinnie, as long as he agrees to be her date for a family event.
Both are committed to their jobs, both don’t want a relationship.
Bianca knows that she’s in trouble, Vinnie is sexy AF and says all the right thing.
Everything about Bianca is Vinnie’s type, and he likes her even with her attitude, but she’s his neighbour and he knows he should stay away.
Bianca is a romance writer and stuck on a scene, her editor doesn’t think it would work, what she didn’t expect was for Vinnie to offer to help, then show a different position, she knows it’s going to be trouble.
Bianca is firm, she wanted twelve months to focus on her career, but Vinnie is crashing through with no stopping, she tells him that after the family event he doesn’t have to see her again. Vinnie doesn’t do relationships, but there’s something about Bianca, and everyone knows what a Gallo wants a Gallo gets and doesn’t stop till they do, and Vinnie’s stopped playing the game and wants it to be real, and Angelo reminds him lock it down.
The best surprise at the end of the book – there’s another book after this one.
Vinnie stole a piece of my heart. I mean Angelo still has most of it but Vinnie squeezed his way in. I loved seeing the once player get twisted over a smart, beautiful woman. It was a sight to see him fall and grow into one sexy man. And damn I loved how Bianca brought Vinnie to his knees. These two were a perfect match. The chemistry was intense and HOT and geeze what can I say Chelle knows how to write sexy scenes.
As always Chelle wrote an amazing book with characters we love and a story that will have you wanting more.
Hustle is book four in the series. I have been dying to read Vinnie’s story since the beginning and this did not disappoint! I loved it alot. I loved loved Vinnie, he was sexy, cocky and swoony. Bianca was feisty. Vinnie and Bianca had sizzling chemistry and hot hot sexy scenes. They were perfect together. Loved them! Definitely recommend this series!
I am absolutely in love with these Gallo men! They are hot! They are sexy! They are sweet and have hearts of gold!
Hustle is a fun, easy to read steamy romance that you don’t want to miss!
It is Vinnie’s turn to catch the love bug that he wasn’t looking for and didn’t see coming in Hustle! It just took the right woman to catch his eye and his heart!
Neither Vinnie or Bianca wanted to be in a relationship. He is a pro football player who has always played the field and she has recently sworn off men after a bad breakup, but after a chance meeting in their apartment elevator they find out they are neighbors. Mutual favors lead to sparks flying as they realize they are each very much attracted to the other!
Just when you think a Series has reached it peak this author throws us another hero to fall in love with. Hustle is book 4 in the Men of Inked: Southside and it’s the book I have been waiting and let me tell you Vinnie’s story was everything I expected and more.
Vinnie Gallo is man not looking for love it’s going to take one special woman to chip away at his heart and Bianca Hernandez is one special woman. Vinnie is a first draft pick for his home NFL team and you may think he has everything he could ever want, he is living the dream except for the small fact of a stalker who just happens to be the owners daughter. Bianca is just what he needs a strong spitfire of a woman who stands for no nonsense but can she put up with the stress of loving a NFL player and the ups and downs that follow ……
This book captivated me, I love the Gallo’s and just when I think I know all their personalities Chelle Bliss gives me another totally different hero to fall for and I fell big for Vinnie. Every time I pick up one of the Men of Inked books I feel like I’m going home visiting family and friends because this is a family we all wish we had, the witty banter flows as do the storyline’s, the characters have chemistry and when these guys fall in love they fall big time. I can never get enough of this family and there stories will be read over and over again because I will never tire of them. This is a must read for any lover of romance.
Chelle Bliss has done it again with this amazing book!!!
Vinnie Gallo was swoon worthy to the point that I want to know where to find a guy like him. Vinnie knew just the things to say and also how to handle almost every situation thrown at him. Vinnie has recently made his dreams come true by making it to the pros. However, with this comes some situations that he wants to avoid like the plague but it will not go away.
Bianca is a strong independent, young, author that has her mind set on staying away from men. That is until her new neighbor shows up. Will she be able to resist him? What happens when they both come up with a plan to get others off their back for different reasons?
Vinnie and Bianca have a chemistry that will eat your heart out. Even though all of Chelle’s characters are amazing I think these two have made the top of the list for me. I can’t wait to read more of the Southside Gallo family.
