Book Review - So Over You (The Chicago Rebels Series Book 2) by Kate Meader
ABOUT THE BOOK
Three estranged sisters struggle to sustain their late father’s failing hockey franchise in Kate Meader’s sizzling Chicago Rebels series. In this second entry, middle sister Isobel is at a crossroads in her personal and professional lives. But both are about to get a significant boost with the addition of a domineering Russian powerhouse to the Rebels...
Isobel Chase knows hockey. She played NCAA, won silver at the Games, and made it thirty-seven minutes into the new National Women’s Hockey League before an injury sidelined her dreams. Those who can’t, coach, and a position as a skating consultant to her late father’s hockey franchise, the Chicago Rebels, seems like a perfect fit. Until she’s assigned her first job: the man who skated into her heart as a teen and relieved her of her pesky virginity. These days, left-winger Vadim Petrov is known as the Czar of Pleasure, a magnet for puck bunnies and the tabloids alike. But back then... let’s just say his inability to sink the puck left Isobel frustratingly scoreless.
Vadim has a first name that means “ruler,” and it doesn’t stop at his birth certificate. He dominates on the ice, the practice rink, and in the backseat of a limo. But a knee injury has produced a bad year, and bad years in the NHL don’t go unrewarded. His penance? To be traded to a troubled team where his personal coach is Isobel Chase, the woman who drove him wild years ago when they were hormonal teens. But apparently the feeling was not entirely mutual.
That Vadim might have failed to give Isobel the pleasure that was her right is intolerable, and he plans to make it up to her—one bone-melting orgasm at a time. After all, no player can perfect his game without a helluva lot of practice...
REVIEW
This is so much more than just a story about hockey. This is a story about family relationships and a second chance romance. It is also a romantic comedy at its best. The relationship between the sisters, while rocky at times, is often humorous and relatable even for someone without sisters. Isobel's interaction with Vadim goes from being hot to intense to hysterical. Meader writes the language barriers and situations very well and while I don't know if they are accurate or not, they feel real and I really enjoyed the way they are portrayed in the book. Vadim is such a well written and complex character and Meader always writes family intricacies well. If you are looking for a book with layers, but still plenty of sizzle and comedy, this is the book for you.
