I have read some of the Playmaker Series and always enjoy them. This book didn’t disappoint! What a fun “Halloween Costume Requirement” having everyone dress up as a mascot! The story starts with Drew kind of hiding away during the Halloween party and Katie finding a quiet moment away from the party. They soon realize that they not only have friends in common but also really “click” with each other. These two are super like able! I loved this novella that included family members of the Hockey players connect.

3.5 Stars

 

Love Rinkside is Book #10, and the twelfth instalment, in The Playmakers series by G.K. Brady. It is a ‘meet cute’ contemporary romance with humour, fun, antics, capers, costumes, adventure, friendship, family, drama, angst, hockey, banter, emotion, sweet storyline, chemistry, and finding love unexpectedly.
Even though this instalment is well into the series (Book #10), it could be read as a standalone if you wanted, without feeling like you are missing anything, as each book in the series focuses on a different couple. But having said that, there are recurring characters, and other details, which span the series, so knowing what happens in the previous instalments would only help to enhance your reading experience here.
This is probably my favourite out of the instalments that I have read in the series. It is a fairly short story with a light-hearted, rom-com feel- making for a fun, quick, and easy read.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, G.K. Brady!

Love Rinkside is a fun standalone novella in The Playmakers series. It is a quick and entertaining read. This sports RomCom has much humour and banter and had me laughing out loud and sometimes cringing at their predicaments. This sweet with a dash of spice tale is full of emotions as well.
We get to meet up with characters from previous books and what a mess they get themselves into. Drew and Katie find themselves in a most unlikely situation when they escape a fancy dress party and end up on the wrong side of the law. Unfortunately, Drew is not looking for love in fact dating is not even in his wheelhouse but when a certain someone bursts in full colour into his life he finally accepts the inevitable.
Want a feel-good story that you can enjoy and escape for a few hours then this is the book for you.
Love Rinkside has it all Halloween, Thanksgiving and Hockey. Crazy costumes, rough neighbourhoods, nosy friends and family and you have mayhem and madness at the ready.

Drew is just floating through his life at the moment, trying to get his business up and running but when his major contract is given to another company not because of the level of skill but that they are lower in price and know someone within the company he becomes depressed and when his sister and his brother-in-law persuades him to go to there Halloween party and he meets another misfit on the balcony, can he handle the attraction or will she put them into the friendzone.

Katie is invited to a Halloween party of her colleague but the theme is mascots so Katie pulls out all the stops and goes in the most embarrassing one but as she is escaping she spots some beers on the balcony but when she runs into a Banana things get interesting. Drew is the brother of her colleague and the chemistry between them is electric but Katie is not sure if she wants to have a relationship, but when he ticks all her boxes can she give this a chance.

This is a brilliant romance story where the characters are believable and you would love to have them in your real life rather than your book world fantasy. The story draws you in and has you rushing to turn the page to find out what happens next.

Katie’s character is full of sass and a great sense of humour which moulds brilliantly with the not too alpha character in Drew which was lovely to read, the chemistry between these two was just amazing and loved reading it. The secondary characters just add to the story and make it really enjoyable. I can’t wait to read more from the wonderful author in the future.

So sweet, I guess these are now called meet cute romances. Oh, so adorable that I felt a cavity form. I loved these two together. An adventure that brought them together for a sweet romance. The chemistry was fun and playful. I found myself giggling out loud. My grandson kept asking what’s funny. I can’t tell a 10 yr old boy why I’m laughing at a romance. It’s a quick read that’s very entertaining. Great writing and wonderful characters.

I enjoyed reading this romance story. This is a newer author for me which I enjoy their writing style as well as their creative characters that are written with a lot of heart. I enjoyed the author’s use of details to bring the characters to life as well. This is a shorter story but it sure packs a punch in the romance department. It is a well written story where the characters pull you into their world from the start. Drew and Katie are great characters. They have one night of fun that gets cut short by a dog attack. Now Drew wants a second chance to make it up to Katie. Problem is she is done with guys, will she give him another chance? I enjoyed watching their growth and their chemistry. It made the story easy to read and entertaining as well. This is a fast paced, engaging story that you don’t want to miss. A story that is hard to put down and one I really enjoyed reading. I highly recommend this book.

This was a quick, fun meet cute. I enjoyed the characters and thought the story was fun. For a novella, it had a nice flow and didn’t feel like there was a thousand things packed inside. The plot was appropriately paced and had humor mixed with other emotion. If you like romance- this is a quick, good choice.
