Characters were not for me
Slam Dunk is the seventh book in the Pass To Win series. As I was reading this book I found myself wondering if this was the same writer that I had written SEALed To Protect, which I had just finished reading. Now granted they are two very different tropes but there was a difference to me that I was not sure about . Maybe it is just me and that I could not connect with the characters in this book. I found the characters to be acting a lot younger than they are supposed to be, young adult/college age. It was more like they were in junior high and for me it did not work with the story-line and what situations they are in. Now the story-line I liked and the writing was good.
In the end I just gave up and flipped to the ending to read what happened………….of course a loving HEA where all is forgiven. As this is only the second book I have read the Roxy Sinclaire maybe I just need to stick with her Omerata series and stay away from the Slam Dunk series………….Yep that is what I am going to do.
I received a copy of this book for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
I like Brittany, she has spirit, gives 100%, is very focused and independent. I like Corey too, he’s a little less mature but he seems to really love her and…opposites attract. Their story reminds me of the realistic saying that sometimes you don’t miss a good thing until it’s gone. Their challenges are many as they get to know one another and they both have a lot to learn the give and take, push and pull of their environment. I was torn emotionally between the two because at times I agreed with her and a few times I felt sorry for him. Enjoyed reading this as they discover as if they are ready for love and the risk. I received an advance review copy at no cost and without obligation from the author.
Brittany is an intern for ESPN she wants to be a journalist and the internship is a jumping point for her to get started. Corey is a rising star in basketball he meets Brittany at an interview he is doing with ESPN and she wows him with her knowledge of sports. He asks her out and they start seeing each other. However he friends and family start on him for tying himself down to one woman and he gives into the pressure and ends things with Brittany. Brittany doesn’t understand why he broke up with her but pushes everything aside while she starts her vlog for ESPN. Not long after starting it she learns that she is pregnant with Corey’s baby. Not sure if he would be interested in a baby she keeps it to herself while she continues to work. When Corey realizes his mistake in ending things with Brittany he tries to get her to talk to him again. Will Brittany give in and give him a second chance? What will he do once he learns about the baby?
This is a great story and once I started it I couldn’t put it down. The chemistry between them is blazing hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

Given the opportunity to intern at ESPN, Brittany jumps in with both feet. Today she is shadowing her boss Patrick to an interview that will change her life forever. Corey Patton, point guard for the Rangers, star player, charming and possess all the right moves, something Brittany would soon learn.
Weeks pass, Brittany and Corey are dating and all is well. That is until his teammates convince him otherwise. Corey realizes he’s going be a big star in the NBA and with all the perks that come with that, why is he limiting himself to one woman? That’s the life he’s dreamed of, isn’t it? Or rather the life he wanted before Brittany. Corey caves to the pressure and breaks up with her. Immediately realizing his mistake, he regrets it. He knows he should move on without her and focus on basketball, but he’s having trouble forgetting her. Brittany is confused and heartbroken. She’s been played. It’s been hard for Brittany to move on also, even more so now that she’s carrying a piece of Corey inside of her.

Slam Dunk is an entertaining sports romance between an ESPN intern and a college basketball star and top NBA draft pick. At first I loved these two together then his teammates and father get in his head and he breaks up with her, leaving her with an unexpected pregnancy. Overall I like the book and I loved Brittany and how strong and independent she was. Brittany and Corey’s story is full of drama, twists and turns and some instant adulting and finally a good ending.
3.5 stars
Slam Dunk is a fast paced, sports romance. Corey and Brittany relationship moves fast from the moment they meet, but it’s not without drama, peers whispering in the ear, a surprise baby to add into the mix and more. I thought it was a good read, with likeable characters.
An amazing read that drew me in from page one. The storyline is exciting, well-developed and heartfelt. It is an emotionally deep read with some ups and downs and drama making this story very exciting and interesting. The characters are likeable; their chemistry that is off the charts. A really enjoyable read that I strongly recommend reading.
