How exactly has one good deed landed me in the penalty box?

Ice Knights defenseman Zach Blackburn has come down with the flu, and my BFF - his PR manager - begs me to put my nursing degree to use and get him back to health. Of course she would call in a favor for the most hated man in Harbor City.

But when he’s finally on the mend and I’m sneaking out of his place, everything goes sideways. Paparazzi spot me and pictures, plus accusations that I slept with him, fly faster than a hockey puck.

At first, all of Harbor City wants my blood - or to give me a girlie-girl makeover. But then…the team finally wins a game. And now this fickle town wants me with the big jerk twenty-four seven.

Argh. I never slept with him the first time! But no one will listen. Then the grumpy bastard goes and promises to break his no-fan-appearances rule to help raise money for a free health clinic - but only if I’m rink-side at every game. That’s not a deal I can turn down.

But when the team keeps winning, and I realize there’s more to him than his bad reputation, suddenly remembering to keep my real hands off my fake date gets harder and harder to do.

I have enjoy the Hartigan Family series. I love the characters who found love even with their self image issues.

I would recommend this book and series.

Excellent narration.

What can I say about Butter Face, Muffin Top and Tomboy, I connected with all three. So well written. How do you write about such real experiences as if the characters are you in written word. Thank you for acknowledging the not so perfect girls that really make up the majority of us. Most books portray the females characters as perfect specimens plucked off the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine when truly most women could never fit that type of perfection (or what media has personified as perfect). We all have someone out there who is the perfect match for us. I found my perfect guy, and you all can find yours. Just believe in yourself and know you are perfect just the way you were created to be! These three women are strong examples of confident and independent women who have risen above society’s idea of beauty. Their inner beauty shines brighter than the sun.

Beautifully written

Overall I enjoyed the story and the characters. What I struggled with was the performance. The male reader was significantly quieter then the female and I felt like I was constantly changing the volume… his impression of a female voice was very annoying and hard to listen to. I don’t expect it to be perfect but when it’s nasaly and so different from the female reader it’s distracting.

Fun story

What I have noticed about Avery Flynn and what keeps bringing me back is she has a lot of well developed and fleshed out character with real issues. The women are strong willed and a bit vulnerable (because hell women can be and are both.) And the men are not threatened by the women in the stories, not emotionally constipated and actually share what is bothering them to their friends at least. (But yes... I know that this is in fact written by a woman. However, it is good to depict how sharing and communication are key in any relationship or friendship.)

This story is no different. The two main characters were fun to get to know, lots of cute banter. There is a lot of layers to peel back... lot of insecurities. Zach and Fallon are two sides of the same coin. I love how Flynn talked about internet trolls in this one and their impact on some people. No matter how tough those people seem to be.

The narration was great. I enjoyed this performance so much I downloaded more of their work.

The most hated man in Harbor City

I really enjoyed this book. Zach is a tough hockey player, but very vulnerable also. Fallon is her own woman. She's not influenced by what everyone thinks a woman should be. She doesn't do makeup, nails, hair or dresses and refers to her boobs as mosquito bites. They come together initially when Fallon is sent to nurse the puking Zack. The beginning of their relationship is pretty cold (hockey, ice...).

Somehow she becomes his "Lady Luck" that heals his lousy hockey playing and they work out a deal that is beneficial to both. But then the hormones get too strong to deny and they need to re-negotiate the terms. The two characters were awesome and really cute together! I love unlikely pairs and they were definitely that!

I listened to the audio version of this book. The narration by Savannah Peachwood and Brian Pallino was incredible!

I enjoyed this story so much!

As the last book in the series, it was a nice finale. The same narrators do all three books and that makes for great continuity. Overall this was worth the credit!

I liked it!

Overall, this one’s storyline was second best in this three book series. However, when it comes to laminating the female leads physical attributes, this one was probably the best. The other two books just over did it with reminding the reader that the female lead was either little on the chubby or ugly side. This one did not over do it and thank god for it. Therefore, without those reminders every 5 minutes, I wasn’t thrown off the storyline while we were in the middle of connecting to the situation that was currently being described. Lastly, I have to admit I mostly read these books to listen to Brian Pallino’s sexy voice but this one did not disappoint me.

It’s the second best out of the series

Not as much as I liked Butterface, my favorite of the series, but I love the world they live in.

Pretty good…
