Kick by Holly S. Roberts
4.0

ARC Received for an honest review

I have been a fan of Holly S Robert's Completion series since I first got my hands on the first book, Play, so signing up for the Kick blog tour was a no brainer.

And then finding out that Kick was about rugby - happy dance! I am a rugby girl through and through (go the Tahs!!) and in my opinion there are not enough books with it as it's setting!!




Cami gets her big break at the newspaper she works for when she is sent to report on The Slam, a rugby team in Colt, Ohio. Only one problem - she has a thing for "man muscle" especially when it is attached to jocks. How is she going to survive weeks with a rugby team?

I like Cami. She has some definite self esteem issues, is shy, reserved, likes to blend into the background. After learning her history, I could understand why she is the way she is. I can guarantee that I would feel the same way as her!

Van and Joel Stelson, brothers, co-owners and co-captains of The Slam. Man-muscle.

I gotta say, I really think that Van is a bit of a dick! The way he treats Cami, and women in general is not at all attractive. I don't care how good looking you are on the outside, that behaviour just makes you ugly in my eyes. Although yes, I did think some thing he said, did, or wore were amusing, overall he was too much of a douche!

Then there is Joel.... sigh, Joel! He is sweet, caring, loving. Complete opposite of Van, but just as, if not more appealing.

I could totally understand Cami being torn between the two. One is what she always wants, one is what she needs.




But of course things never run smoothly when it comes to matters of the heart, and Kick runs the same way. Jealousy, misunderstandings, fighting, bitchiness.

Can Cami find her HEA? For that you are going to have to read for yourself!

Ms Roberts has a knack in her writing of drawing you right into the story. You can hear the crowd roar at the stadium, feel the body hits, taste the blood, smell the sweat.




It is a fun, sweet, sensual, sexy, testosterone packed read, and a great addition to the Completion Series! Now I need to know if there will be more in this series!

By the way, I may have fallen a little bit for Joel.... and Van maybe, just maybe, redeems himself a bit!
