Body Checked (Astoria Bay Thunder Book 2) By C.J. Cartwright – Review by Kiana Corley
Body Checked by C.J. Cartwright
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Body Checked is the second book in the Astoria Bay Thunder series. I must say this book was a great and exciting read. C.J. Cartwright really knows how to keep your interest and get you invested in the story and the chemistry between the characters. The plot is well developed and has just enough twists to make putting the book down hard.
This is not your typical boy who meets a girl and they fall madly in love. Bridger and Tia meet due to a job opportunity for Tia to help her best friend with the Astoria Bay Thunder photoshoot. They both acknowledge their chemistry but not in the typical let’s get to know each other fashion.
Bridger a well-known playboy known better for his scores off the ice than on the ice had to put in a lot of work to get the girl. While Tia the highly guarded independent woman had to learn to trust a man again.
Reading about their love story and seeing it go from nothing to something was great. There were times I wanted to yell at Tia for her decisions. While other times I was fawning over how Bridger treated her. This book is the perfect combination of love, angst, and passion. When the passion flows you might just want a drink of water nearby to cool you down.
