Synopsis
When professional hockey player Sig Gauthier’s car breaks down and his phone dies, he treks into a private country club to call a tow truck, where he encounters the alluring Chloe Clifford, the manic pixie dream girl who captivates him immediately.
Sparks fly during a moonlight kiss and the enamored pair can’t wait to see each other again, but when Sig finally arrives to meet his dad’s new girlfriend over dinner, Chloe is confusingly also there. Turns out the girlfriend is Chloe’s mother. Oh, and they’re engaged, which means that Sig’s dream girl is his future stepsister.
Though the pair is now wary of being involved romantically, Chloe, a sheltered harp prodigy, yearns to escape her controlling mother. Sig promises to teach her the ins and outs of independence in Boston. They both know there can never be more than friendship between them. But keeping their relationship platonic grows harder.
Thoughts
Book three in the Big Shots series scored another goal with me! This is my favorite in the series so far. A bit kooky, very spicy, and lots of fun, this is a classic Tessa Bailey romcom. I thoroughly enjoyed the opposites attract, forbidden love affair between Sig and Chloe. The beautiful cover and gorgeous sprayed edges on this edition deserve a shoutout, too!
★★★★★
☊ Listening to this story via audiobook was fantastic! Even though I had already read the ARC, I could not resist listening to two of my favorite narrators. Callie Dalton and Teddy Hamilton did an outstanding job, as always!
