ARC REVIEW: Dirty Pucking Play ~ Cali Melle

I fell in love with the Vipers from Orchid City when I met Nico Cirone in the debut, Meet Me in the Penalty Box and I’ve been hooked with the series.

This time around it’s Mac Sullivan’s time to heat things up.  This time, however, Mac’s eyes are going where they shouldn’t: Juliette, the coach’s daughter!

You know when a guy is falling hard for the girl when he tells his friends how “uninterested” he is in her and how he knows he can’t cross that line; and Mac fell HARD, no matter how many warning bells went off from his friends.

Juliette isn’t by any means a wilting flower or damsel in distress.  How can she be when she was raised by a hockey coach father?  While she’s very guarded and has her walls up, she wasn’t expecting Mac to be the one to tear it apart, brick by brick.

The banter is off the charts.  I love that Cali didn’t have Mac pushing too hard with Jules.  I loved that she wrote it where Mac backed off and passed the puck in her direction to make the next play.

I was on the edge of my seat with this one; because you know stuff is about to go down when you have a hockey player either messing with the teammate’s sister or the coach’s daughter.  This trope alone makes you not want to stop reading.

Cali Melle, a phenomenal writer of hockey romance will always have me waiting a new release, and her upcoming release of Dirty Pucking Play is going to win romance readers over.
