USA Today bestselling author Sawyer Bennett hits the ice with the story of a playboy athlete whose winning ways lead him to a beautiful woman with a lot to lose.

Carolina Cold Fury star Garrett Samuelson never wants to miss out on a single minute of fun. Whether he’s playing hockey, hanging out with friends, or walking the red carpet with a new date on his arm, he lives every day to the fullest. When he meets Olivia Case, he sees someone who’s exactly his type—confident, sexy, smart . . . his next fling. But the more he pursues her, the more Garrett shares a side of himself that other women don’t normally get to see.

Olivia has been keeping a secret. While Garrett lives for the next thrill, Olivia’s not sure she’ll live to see the next day. She’s undergoing treatment for some serious medical issues, and she doesn’t have time for a relationship with no guarantees—especially one with a hot-as-sin womanizer who won’t take no for an answer. But as she gets to know the real Garrett, Olivia can’t help falling for him . . . hard. To reveal the truth would mean risking everything—but you can’t score without taking the tough shots.

My Thoughts:

Who doesn't love a player falling from his manwhoring ways? I find these kinds stories the best. So, we have Garrett who is known for his way around the ladies, or rather into their pants and running out the door. Why limit yourself to just one girl when there are so many out there? However, that all changes when he sets his cap on Olivia. Now Olivia has heard about Garrett's way and wasn't going to give into him. Yet, she decides to take a chance and have a little fun, because who knows what's going to happen tomorrow.

I liked the story. I liked how Olivia was preparing herself to be another notch in Garrett's bedpost, after all who wants to be stuck with a girl who has cancer. I admire Garrett's reaction to when he found out Olivia had cancer. Let's be honest some guys, would be like "Oh it was fun, but I better be getting going." However, he surprised her and stuck around. He was a tad bit overprotective at times, but it was all so sweet. He wasn't with her out of pity, because we have some guys like that. I adore that Garrett truly liked being with her, after all she's smart, witty, and beautiful. Plus, they get got along so well, like they were made for each other. Yes, there some hot steamy scenes as these two burn up the sheets, but you see some sweet moments.

Overall, Garrett is a fun sexy read, with some sweet moments. Garrett is one of those guys who just seems to melt your panties off. Olivia is adorable with a lot of sass. So, if you are looking for a playboy who reforms his way for a sassy girl, you might give Garrett a try.
