As always, the interaction between the boys is one of the highlights. The Goal can be read as a standalone however, I loved the way this story intersects with events from the other books in the series. The book lags at times, and while I don’t think it’s as laugh-out-loud hilarious as the previous books, that’s okay. Their chemistry is intense, though, and I really enjoyed them as a couple. She pushes Tucker away so many times it’s amazing he keeps coming back. Her stubbornness seems foolish and sometimes dangerous. What frustrated me was her unwillingness to accept any help. I admired Sabrina’s tenacity despite her being prickly towards Tucker. Good googly goo, Gus! I’ve never seen a man with so much patience and understanding. I adored everything about Tucker! He’s funny, trustworthy, supportive, calm, and it doesn’t hurt that he’s phenomenal (and dirty) in bed. He loves a challenge, and he’s determined to win her over with his “aw shucks” charm, good manners, and perseverance. Sabrina is a tough nut to crack, but Tucker sees the vulnerability she tries to hide. She’s relying on her brains and hard work to get her out of a dismal situation and into Harvard law school. She’s a competitive pre-law student with a reputation for being cold and bitchy, but there’s a lot of insecurity beneath Sabrina’s façade. Sabrina was introduced in The Score as Dean’s archenemy. Tucker was mysteriously MIA through most of the previous novel, The Score, and now we know the reason why: Sabrina. He’s the one they call Mom because he cooks homemade meals for the other players in the house. In my opinion, Tucker is the sweetest and most nurturing of all his manwhore hockey teammates.
I’ve enjoyed all three previous books, and The Goal is a winning addition to the series.
When it comes to college sports romances, you don’t get much better than Elle Kennedy’s Off-Campus series. If he wants a life with the woman of his dreams, he’ll have to convince her that some goals can only be made with an assist. The problem is, Sabrina’s heart is locked up tight, and the fiery brunette is too stubborn to accept his help. It doesn’t hurt that the soon-to-be mother of his child is beautiful, whip-smart, and keeps him on his toes.
On the ice, he’s fine staying out of the spotlight, but when it comes to becoming a daddy at the age of twenty-two, he refuses to be a bench warmer. Tucker believes being a team player is as important as being the star. One night of sizzling heat and surprising tenderness is all she’s willing to give John Tucker, but sometimes, one night is all it takes for your entire life to change.īut the game just got a whole lot more complicated Her path to escaping her shameful past certainly doesn’t include a gorgeous hockey player who believes in love at first sight. The Goal (Off-Campus, #4) by Elle KennedyĬollege senior Sabrina James has her whole future planned out: graduate from college, kick butt in law school, and land a high-paying job at a cutthroat firm.
