Jock Wanted

Tara Becker had been introduced as Cal Foreman’s girlfriend in a prior book. Cal was destined for happily ever after with Tara’s bestie Mia, not Tara. But Tara will not be deterred from her goal of marrying a pro hockey player. So when she is set up as a fake girlfriend to bad boy Dex, you think this will be just another fake turns real romance. But a huge obstacle is in her way, Hale Fitzgerald, the new Rebel’s General Manager. In the prior books, Tara comes across as a superficial gold digger, but Kate Meader does a great job of revealing that Tara has a lot more layers, and is someone deserving of a happily ever after. While Hale initially buys into Tara’s flaky facade, he starts to see that there is a lot more to Tara. I love when an author redeems a former antagonist, and Kate Meader does a fabulous job with Tara. I loved this book, and loved this whole series. I received an arc of this book from the author for my honest review.
