REVIEW: For the Win by Kelly Jamieson

JennieBook Reviews / C+ ReviewsContemporary romance / hockey / pro athlete / Series / stalkers / trauma / yoga2 Comments

Dear Kelly Jamieson: This is the fourth book in the Wynn Hockey series, a fact I was unaware of when I started reading it. I read the first two books, and when I saw that For the Win was available for review, I snapped it up. It was only after ... more >

Reading List by Jennie for October through December, Part One

JennieBook Reviews / Reading ListsClassic Sci-Fi/Horror / Contemporary romance / Essays / Historical Biography / historical romance / History / non-fiction / Reading lists8 Comments

REVIEW: Play to Win by Kelly Jamieson

REVIEW: Playing Hurt by Kelly Jamieson

JennieB- Reviews / Book ReviewsHockey Romance / Pop Star HeroineComments Off on REVIEW: Playing Hurt by Kelly Jamieson

Dear Ms. Jamieson, Last year I read one of your previous hockey-related books, Slap Shot. I gave it a C+ and noted in my book log that it was readable but lacking in excitement and had “too much emphasis on sex.” The book had a very unusual hero-only narration until ... more >
