So all in all, a pretty fast, piece of cake read, perfect for the sports romance fan who likes the romance on the spicy side. Every bit an added bonus, in that location was a pretty satisfying epilogue, which isn't always the case with romances these days. Nice petty afternoon read--4 stars!

I love hockey and I liked Elle Kennedy'southward Samhain offerings, then I figured the odds were good for this book.Hayden Houston is a professor of art history at UC-Berkley in Chicago to support her father through an acrimonious divorce. While in boondocks, she meets a friend at a bar and together they scheme to get her a one-dark stand.
Brody Croft is a pro hockey player shooting puddle, minding his ain business, when Hayden hit on him and surprises him with an invite dorsum to her place. Surprised and delighted that she'southward not only not a hockey groupie, but utterly ignorant of hockey entirely, he'south immediately smitten. After all, a woman afterwards the human and non the player is a rare find.
Only Hayden wants information technology to stay a one-night deal and slips away without leaving her number.
This beingness Romancelandia, information technology turns out Hayden's father owns the team Brody plays for and Hayden and Brody run across again.
I idea the romance between Hayden and Brody was prissy. Brody enjoyed the intelligent conversations he could accept with Hayden, and she enjoyed his forthrightness and comfortable sexuality, which contrasts with her reserved art historian beau dorsum home (they were "on a break" and then I wouldn't phone call this cheating, YMMV.) After a childhood traveling constantly with her hockey coach male parent, I thought her reluctance to forge a meaningful relationship with a ever traveling player was understandable, then it didn't grate on me like the push away trope tin.
I did even so observe the scandal suspense plot nearly ridiculous and her father's alcoholism treated unrealistically. If but a pouty face and a "I'm disappointed in you lot" prompted a drunk to admit a problem and sober up. I get together that she didn't want to take up a brusque volume with the realities of alcoholism, simply if yous're not going to practice it right, why carp in the first place? Was it so of import her already flawed dad also be an alcoholic?
All told, information technology was a fun book about hockey and love, but information technology'due south ultimately quite forgettable.

four-4 ½ stars - Gimmicky/Sports RomanceThis is a fast, low-cal, and fun sports romance about a hotshot hockey star and a miss prim and proper art history professor engaging in some hot off the rink, between the sheets action.

Hayden has returned to Chicago to stand by her father's side while he goes through his divorce, drastic to bridge the gap that has formed over the years. The years when hockey took over everything and took her male parent away from her. On a break from her electric current love interest, Hayden isn't looking for anything serious, just a chance to permit out some steam and reliever her body of some tension – but when Brody enters the bar... all of that is nearly to change.Hockey star, Brody Croft is tired of the countless supply of women. For the first time he wants something that is more than than but a ane-night or a fame seeking gold-digger. He knew Hayden was that woman, he merely didn't know how to make her see information technology.
When things get complicated – one-night-stand-turned-fling, bribery and criminal investigations... Hayden and Brody are put in the line of fire when their human relationship complicates things, leaving these two new lovers to figure out how to navigate their feelings.
I take been a fan of Elle Kennedy since I read The Deal and I am sort of becoming a whore for Hockey themed romances. As much equally I love the super-alpha heroes, I sometimes find myself fatigued to the dainty guy hero. And although Brody was blastoff, he was dainty. He was that guy who instantly knew he was tired of just meaningless sex, that he wanted more – I loved that he stood by and allowed Hayden to accept her rules, not pushing too hard.
A sexy read from Ms. Kennedy! I loved the aspect of these two characters existence in such unlike places in their lives, but finding mutual ground. A great read for anyone who enjoys a steamy contemporary-romance!

This is a really satisfying read. From the beginning to the epilogue, Trunk Bank check was exactly what I wanted and non what I expected from Elle Kennedy. I've only read her Out of Uniform books, which while very good, are very dissimilar from Body Check.The hero, Brody, is a 29 yo hockey player who is by his womanizing years. He is already open to a existent human relationship when he is approached by the heroine, Hayden, in a bar. She is on a pause from her less than exciting beau and is in town to support her begetter, the owner of Brody's hockey team. Hayden'due south father is in the middle of a nasty divorce and has been accused of rigging games.
Elle Kennedy'due south heroines always accept agency and Hayden is no different. She does non need to exist a virgin or take a horrific back story to have a personality. She is a Berkeley professor who is trying to take stock of her life and part of that is trying to recapture the close human relationship she had with her father. They drifted autonomously when he bought the squad and she moved to the west coast. Earlier her visit to Chicago, Hayden told her beau, Doug, she needed a break from their relationship. Doug was intent on taking things besides slowly and that amidst other things made her question their relationship. I was surprised at how nice Doug was. He simply has a small part in the story, but he was surprisingly sympathetic and sweetness. My only question about Hayden is what did she do all day? She'due south not spending time with her dad and she's non with Brody. I don't care if she is in the penthouse of the Four Seasons, that sounds dull.
The plot apropos Hayden'southward father did not go how I expected, nor did the characterization of her very young footstep-mother. Hayden's pace-female parent was specially surprising and she was not the 100% evil gold digger you detect so ofttimes.
The events of the emotional climax and the HEA were very satisfying and the epilogue finished the book perfectly.

A well written and enjoyable quick read
Sadly this book was only not for me.

Be set up for some rambles. I repent in advance.Sadly this volume was just non for me.
When I saw Elle Kennedy and Sports Romance my instant thought was 'hell ya!' Just this book fell short for me in basically all the categories. I forced myself to read the last twoscore pages and then the epilogue was the ultimate nail in the coffin pulling my (expected) 2 stars to one.
I didn't particularly like whatsoever of the characters in this book. I never found myself rooting for the couple to stay together, for the hockey team to win, for the messy divorce to go smoothly. I just didn't care about any of them.
The plot was… boring? No plot lines were explored. Side characters were there but purposeless. The expected short term breakup was *meh. There was none (or minimal) turmoil or drama. No excitement! Goose egg to hold my attending. I mean, there was someone waiting for her at home and even that wasn't a big deal to this story! Both master characters were fully unaffected by almost all the surrounding storylines which made them feel… pointless.
I'm sorry, merely having a dad who was married to someone ii years older than you for a significant corporeality of time, who is going through a divorce, is accused of cheating, being an alcoholic, throwing bets, and excessive gambling… WHY was this not a larger point of contention in the story?!
The ebook version of this volume besides has formatting errors that I really struggled with. Overall I would not recommend this book. Perhaps endeavor a different romance by this author - The Bargain is excellent 👍🏻

A nice steamy sport romance that makes yous question your loyalty and trust towards your loved ones. Information technology was supposed to be a one night stand just it ended up being a one life time.

This book was really crawly! V stars and a half, even. Information technology was totally hot and sexy! This was the first fourth dimension I've read a story from Elle Kennedy and must admit that I was totally amazed past her writing way. Did I ever enjoy every folio!Hayden Houston as the female lead in the story was very likeable. She was a professor of arts history in California who came to visit her dad in Chicago. She was the type of woman who craves stability in life which she never had while growing up because she has spent her budding years moving state to land because of her father who'due south a hockey coach at that time. It was likewise the reason why she never dated hockey players. But before settling, she planned to take a one-night fling and be totally bold and outrageous for only 1 night with a hot guy she could discover in the bar she was hanging out with her friend. Then while she was busy combing the bar for a hot guy, her eyes rested on the back of one of the tallest guy with oh-so-hot-trunk-with-the-bang-up-butt and when that so-chosen hot guy turned in an angle she was able to glimpse his face, her mouth literally dropped down the floor! Considering not only Brody Croft had the hottest body simply he was one of the most gorgeous guy she's ever seen! Like a Greek God kinda gorgeous! But all she wanted from him was 1 night of pure hedonistic pleasance, and nothing else! They could forget virtually each other the adjacent day… oh and then she thought!
Brody Croft was a hockey actor, unbeknownst to Hayden. He's known as the playboy of the hockey arena. He was immediately attracted to her the moment she approached him in the bar and didn't have any second thoughts of hooking up with her all through the night of hedonistic elation! Merely after one dark with her, he'due south a changed man! And he realized that he didn't simply want i nighttime with Hayden but one that would found a real relationship. How he could convince Hayden of that when she refused to have annihilation to do with him afterwards their so-called ane night stand up. That was one serious dilemma for our hot male atomic number 82!
Whew, if all one-dark-stands were as hot and as fabled in bed as Brody Croft, I'm guessing every day would be one-dark represent me! LOL!
I truly loved the characters of Hayden Houston and Brody Croft. Their chemistry in the story was perceptible the moment they laid eyes on each other. The storyline was very neat and for me has no drawbacks any. Information technology was a funny and sexy read. I totally enjoyed every minute of reading it. It was utterly engrossing! I look forrard to another Elle Kennedy volume.
...moreThe ii characters are Hayden Houston and Brody Croft. Hayden picks Brody up from a bar for a 1 night stand. She only wants on dark and he wants it all. Wow, that seems like such a skillful dorsum of the book teaser.

The characters were reastic. I really love a story were the roles are reversed and it's the male who want the relationship and the woman who doesn't. Brody works very hard to get Hayden to open and concord to them dating. The supporting characters were great also. Hayden's best friend, Darcy, almost steals the book, but the author does a bang-up chore of controling her. I also liked the fashion in which the evil stepmonster is turns out to be a regular woman who even gets attends the wedding of Hayden and Brody.
Being a hockey fan, I would have to say that hither was any of the sport at all. It could have been whatever sport. Very generic.
There were as well some errors in the volume. On page 58, Brody is wearing grayness wool pants. On folio 66 he'southward wearing jeans. So on folio 168 Brody is in a accommodate from the game, only in the gazebo, he'south wearing jeans once more. And then on page 169, he's back in the suit.
The sex scenes are very hot. I would requite them v chili peppers.
I would recommend this book to any romance readers how like a good story and nifty hot sexual activity. If not a sports fan, don't let that stop you. ...more than
