When the stakes are this high, it’s game on. . . .

“Kelly Jamieson is an auto-buy for me.”—New York Times bestselling author Carly Phillips

Cam Brickley and his pro hockey teammates bet on everything: who can win five faceoffs in a row, who can do forty pushups in less than a minute, who can eat a ghost pepper without puking. But when his buddies bet him he can’t date the same woman—like, say, the hot blonde over at the bar—for two months and not fall in love, he’ll take that bet all day. Then he’ll laugh all the way to the hockey arena, where they’ll be washing his jock straps for the rest of the season, because Cam’s never giving up his bachelor lifestyle.

Olivia Lockwood, heiress to the Lockwood Industries fortune, is used to people using her for her money and family connections. When Cam Brickley hits on her in a club, Olivia’s first instinct is to brush him off. But he couldn’t be using her for her money, since he has more than enough of his own. Cam’s gorgeous and built, and it would be no hardship to go out with him . . . besides, he’d be the perfect spokesperson for the children’s charity she works with. Maybe it’s time for her to start using people.

Cam and Olivia are both in it for something. What they don’t know yet is that they’re playing for keeps.

Cocktails and Books received this book for free from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect our opinion of the book or the content of our review.

I was happy to discover Kelly Jamieson has written an eighth book in the Aces Hockey series.  Since I love reading about hockey players, I have enjoyed reading all the books in this enchanting series. All the characters are interconnected, so it is always fun catching up with all the guys on the team and everyone from the past stories.  

 

GAME ON is touching, sweet and sexy. It is about Brick, a professional hockey player, falling in love before he realizes what is happening. Brick is a nice guy and I found it easy to like him. He loves woman and playing the field but he has never been interested in a long term commitment. When he meets Olivia, everything he has always believed comes into question.  Brick and Olivia meet at a bar and they immediately hit it off and have a strong attraction.  However, while they enjoy each other’s company, they each have ulterior motives.

Olivia is sweet, smart and honest and she runs a non profit in Chicago. Unfortunately, her family isn’t impressed with her achievements and they have always made Olivia feel like she doesn’t measure up. Olivia hasn’t had a good track record with men and because she lacks confidence, she worries Brick will break her heart.  I enjoyed Brick and Olivia’s story and they had smoking chemistry.
