I absolutely loved this book! It’s very well written, amazing characters and entertaining, easy to read storyline. I was hooked from the very beginning ad couldn’t put it down.
In this fake couple to forever love romance Adrian and Tatum take us on a funny and romantic journey full of surprises, heartbreak, love, and so much more. When you have skeletons in your closet that keep you from truly opening up to love it can cause chaos when you find it. Adrian and Tatum both have their own reasons for swearing off love and never expected their fake relationship to grow into something real. When things get touch and Adrian’s demons play a part things get messy, hearts get broke and he will have to fight for what he truly wants – Tatum back, forever.
Highly recommend!
What can I say that I haven’t already said? I always enjoy your books and I can never get enough of them. The words you magically put to the paper are just amazing. I can also never wait for the next book in any of your series. Keep up the wonderful work.
Adrian and Tatum
I have been trying to wrap my brain around how to write a spoiler free review for this awesome book. So here I go.
Adrian Stratton and Tatum Rojas are my new favorite couple! The Hockey God and the Math Nerd are so perfect for one another. This Book was so fun to read. There are so many moments! Laugh out loud, swoony, OMG I hate you, Gaspy and whoa, and Steamy moments! This book is FANTASTIC!!! I loved it all! #TheRealGuyBehindTheStick
“Adrian is more than the persona he pretends to be, and if he only manages to remember one thing from our time together, I pray it’s that.”
My Fair Puck Bunny is Xavier’s second book in the Hockey Gods Series. We met Stratton in Ren and Poppy’s book, Can’t Block My Love. When the new hockey season starts, he’s given a “job” by the coach, little does he know this job will bring him in constant contact with his ex, the only woman who’s ever broken his heart. He doesn’t want her back and doesn’t want her thinking he’s been pining away for her. So what’s his solution?? Tatum or his Tator Tot.
This book was a short-ish sweet read. I don’t know how Xavier reels me in every time but she’s just good at what she does.
This was a quirky, funny, and thought-provoking book. I loved the witty back and forth dialogue. The fast and quick-witted responses had me in stitches. Not only that, it exercised my mind. I had to look up so many words! However, I now have more creative words in my arsenal. Tatum is a walking calculator with a wall-flower appearance. At the same time, she is a strong woman. I love how Adrien doesn’t change her but enhances her beauty. He cracks the shell and she becomes a blossoming knock-out. Adrien is a pretty boy that has many talents. I was so riveted by the tension-filled banter, and awed by how they brought out the best in each other. They are the perfect example of how a couple should raise each other up and not break each other down. Ms. Neal blew my mind in this fast-paced, hilarious read. It left me with a feel-good attitude and a smile on my face. My Fair Puck Bunny is a wonderful Sports Romance with a friends to lovers twist!
