The heroine: Roberta – she is in her fifth year at Appleton State University and needs six credits of work experience for her master’s degree in kinesiology. She was just turned down for a sports medicine job at the university and isn’t happy about it. She is also a bit of an introvert and was sick of the college party scene that younger college students seemed to love, though she goes to a party with her friend to try to get over the disappointment of losing the job she wanted.
The Heroes: Danny, Lance and Fernando – Danny is the handsome all American, star quarterback and captain for the football team. He has devoted himself to school and the game and rarely has a free minute for anything else. Lance is the wide receiver on the football team and has a reputation of taking a different girl home every night. He thrives on attention. Fernando (a.k.a. Feña), he is from Chili, and is the kicker on the Appleton University football team.
The Story: – Danny and Roberta hit it off at the party and end up hooking up for the night. The next day she is called into the coach’s office thinking she got another chance at the job she wanted but it turns out the coach is a bit of a misogynist and just want to ask her about some pictures she was tagged in with Danny, then offered her a secretarial position even though it wouldn’t help with the work credits she needs to graduate. Danny and his two friends offer her an alternative when they ask her to work with them for her credits.
This is the third reverse-harem from Cassie Cole that I have read in a row. I picked it up since the first two had such great stories and the intimate scenes were super-steamy, yet there weren’t too many of them to overpower the main storyline and put the book into the smut category. Also, with each book of Cassie’s that I have read so far, I have been very impressed by the number of details, it is obvious that she thoroughly researches things before writing about them, in this case it was sports medicine and kinesiology, in a previous book, Snowbound, it was the Whistler mountains and being a ski patrol. All the details add so much to the stories. I will definitely be reading more of her books!
