  This book was a DNF for me. Hard to believe she goes from a purity ring with no experience to being slutty in the next chapter.

  I could not finish.
  
  I love these type of stories and I needed a break from the heroines who just give it up with a wink and a smile, but this heroine drove me nuts. Lucy accepts a drink from a guy she barely knows at a party. In this day and age has she not heard how guys try to slip something into a girl's drink?!?!? Nate, the hero, saves the day, but I am not sure why he would want anything to do with Lucy. Who drove me nuts and I was only at 10% in the book. The Disney movies was over the top. Then there was the annoying roommate that pushes sex.
  
  The story did not flow. The verbiage felt awkward and very immature.
  
  This may work for you, but it did not work for me. Reading is subjective so you may love this. I liked that the heroine was going to be an innocent and not just give it up, but she was annoying mixed in with stupid. This is set in college, not junior high.

  Different than what I've been reading
  
  This is quite a bit different from what I've been reading lately, and it was very enjoyable. This was a great book, and a standalone, which is nice for a change. This book was well written, with interesting characters. It kept me interested throughout.

  This was a DNF at 18% for me. Normally I try to at least get through 25% of the book before I give up on it, but I just couldn't with this one. Lucy is described as being very innocent, which is fine, but she was annoyingly innocent. All of her "fake cursing" was really irritating; i.e. Cheese and crackers instead of jesus christ, fiddlesticks instead of fuck, I mean really? It's fine if you don't want her to curse, but if that's the case, then leave it out all together. Those just make her sound like a 12 year old. Her "friend" Amber really pissed me off too. First of all, announcing to the world that Lucy is a virgin is just messed up. Second, if your friend is so inexperienced and naive, wouldn't you pay more attention to her at a party and make sure that she isn't taken advantage of? I understand trying to get her out of her shell, but you can't just shove someone with a purity ring into a room full of frat guys and say "hey here you go, you're on your own."
  
  As I said, I only got 18% of the way through the book and already Nate was admitting to himself that he was falling for her. I love me some instant attraction, but that's a little too insta-love for me. I would have liked for some more angst and development in that area. If he's this constantly angry and aggressive person, somehow I doubt he would let his walls down that quickly.
  
  This synopsis of this story drew me in immediately because I love sports books, especially in college settings, but this one, unfortunately, did not live up to the others I have read. I agree with another reviewer who said it felt more YA than NA.

  Lucy is daddy's little girl. A young woman who is looking for her prince and her happily ever after. Her dad is the dean and she is a young woman who is like a Disney princess- she doesn’t cuss, doesn’t go out , is a virgin, is the quintessential Daddy’s good girl ( and is looking to break free for the right man) Into Lucy’s path comes Nate – he’s known as the bad boy and at college , he is the new star college basketball player who when he catches sight of Lucy, he instantly wants her.
  Lucy couldn’t believe this sexy and popular guy wants her attention yet she is drawn to him as well. When they meet Nate literally knocks Lucy off balance. There is twists and turns to their burgeoning relationship because certain people do not want them to get it doing .But with a revelation so intense and possibly shocking, will it be enough to tear these two apart? And take everyone that’s in their path down?
  I really enjoyed the main characters and their outlook in the story. Watching how they started the story and by end, how they ended up- did they get a good HEA? It makes this such a fantastic story.
  
  My rating: 4.4 stars ****

  I received this for an honest review. This is the first book I have read of Teagan Kade. This was a good read.
  
  Lucy who’s father was the Dean of the college she attended. She was the good girl. The one that still head her “V” card and did no wrong. Her main focus was studying and getting good grades. Her father wanted to find the perfect guy for her. Boy was he bad at that.
  
  Nate was know as the bad boy. He was going to the same college as Lucy but knew she was to good for him. Nate had a rough past. I looked at him as he went through the fire and came out on top.
  
  Lucy finds herself in some serious danger. Nate is there to help her. He has a soft spot when it comes to Lucy. There is more to Lucy and Nate that meets the eye, but sorry you will have to read the book to see what that is.
  
  Things gets hot and heavy between Lucy and Nate. Obstacles seem to be in their way. What will Lucy’s father say if he finds out. Can Lucy and Nate bet all odds?

  This is the story of Nate who is the bad boy troublemaker on the basketball team, and Lucy, who is the perfect daughter, with the good grades, and when Nate is in need of a tutor in order to get his grades up, he is assigned to Lucy. These two have an instant and intense attraction to each other. Will Nate persuade Lucy to walk on the wild side? You really need to read this for yourself to find out.
  This is an entertaining story, with secrets and pasts which will be revealed. I was intrigued and captivated throughout this story. I recommend this authors work for all.

  There were so many elements in this story that just didn't do it for me. All the characters needed a lot more development, as did the plot. As it was, it was boring. Maybe if we heard from the H (I can't even remember his name anymore) it would have been better.

  Cute
  
  This was a cute story, and the background story was original and creative. I did actually like both characters. I could have really loved it which is why I have this 3 stars instead of 1x moving on to why it has 3, I didn’t live some of the parts of the story. I’m not a prude at all but they jumped into sex too quickly. It didn’t fit the characters at all, it was weird. She should have had them hang out once or twice and watch a movie. It would have explained how a virgin wearing a purity ring is suddenly hoping into his bed. And honestly it felt like he would have hesitated a little more because he was aware of their shared history even if she wasn’t. He had her portrait as a child, tattooed on his body for Pete’s sake! . That being said, this story also needs a crap ton of editing. She needs a re read or someone to clear up the grammar and also to steer her in direction of tying up loose ends, story lines etc. The author could really benefit from a few beta readers, and if has some then she needs some new ones. There were so many times I noticed that something could have greatly benefitted with a paragraph here or there.
  Some more good:
  No om/ow drama. h is a virgin and while H isn’t it isn’t thrown in her face and she doesn’t ever see him with other girls.
  Different kind of story for their background (I like different non trope stuff) though it does need polishing

  This was a great book I was going back and forth on whether to give it 4 or 5 stars! I really got into this book, I couldn't put it down. I was glad it was a quick read. The reason for the 4 star would be because there were a handful of time I couldn't follow along with what was going on. I had to re-read and still wasn't sure what was suppose to happen. Also it was Nate's chapter but yet it was Lucy who was narrating and reference about him!
  
  I gave it 5 stars because I did love the storyline. They have awesome chemistry together. I gasp when I realize it was Lucy on his tattoo, the girl in the window. There were also times when I was laughing at something someone said. I love it when I can laugh about something in a book. I think Nate wanted Lucy to remember her time in foster care herself. I don't think that would have ever happened on it own. She always wanted to block that part of her live out. It would have been nice to have a few more chapter in the book about Nate and Lucy's time together after he recovered from his arm injury.
  
  I always like to see what happens to the charters in the book in 5 to 10 years. I would have loved to know how much time has passed in this epilogue. We know Lucy is going for her bar exam, I wanted to know what Nate is going to do.

  The only thing bigger than Nate's ego is the chip on his shoulder. What's worse is he knows it and doesn't care!
  
  Recruited to be the star player on the basketball team, Nate struggles to keep his grades up enough to qualify to take the court. Enter the reluctant, straight-laced Lucy. She's daughter of the Dean and determined to stay as far away from the sexy sports star as possible.
  
  It can't last.
  
  Not with all those muscles, all that testosterone and all that sexiness being directed her way and her father encouraging their every interaction.
  
  The ending blindsided me. But it did in the best possible way.
  
  Kade has written a sports romance unlike many other's I've read, and believe me I've read more than my fair share, where the main story line isn't the guy gets the girl. It's the sadness and reality behind the characters which allow you, the reader to fall in love with Nate despite the cockiness!

  3 maybe-I-should-start-random-books-on-my-kindle-without-looking-up-the-average-rating-more-often stars.
  
  I try to not let average ratings affect me, but sometimes you can't help but have that nagging voice tell you "this should better" or "this should be worse."
  
  I think... this was good. I enjoyed it. Or maybe because the last book I read was so bad, the bar set for tonight was so low that anything could make me enjoy it. Whatever the case, this was enjoyable. Sure, some things just magically decided not to happen... and other things just magically decided to happen...
  
  That scene at the hospital reminds me of that scene from 13 Reasons Why... that was funny. I mean... when you tell someone to leave...

  Excellent
  
  Lucy and Nate was meant to be. After all the went through together as young children and after not seeing each other for so many years they were still attracted to each. Everytime I read a story about the terrible things children go through in foster care, it makes me so mad because I know some foster parents do abuse children in real life. These experiences damage the children for life and unfortunately, some people can be so judgemental without sympathy or help for these children to overcome the reason for their behaviour. Brilliant plot

  Bad boy and virgin good girl - college scholarship for him and she's the dean's daughter. Match made in heaven, right?

She goes to stay away from the bad boy but things in life change and they actually get thrown together. Can she help him bring up his grades enough to maintain his scholarship?

  This was my first read from this author and it has taken me a while to write a review about it. Decent plot line, Dean's virgin daughter and bad boy on a scholarship. Slammed was a good read, I enjoyed reading and seeing the chemistry develop between the characters. But for me I think this one could have been a bit longer, with more time for more character development on either side. But that is me being really picky. It was a good read and for that it's 3.5 stars.

  Bad...
  
  Bad boy at his finest, Nate 'King' Compton is a tatted up mass of anger and definitely not a team player.
  Boring good girl and Disney princess wannabe, Lucy Middleton, is the Dean's virgin daughter...then she is hit on by Nat...with a basketball!
  From that point on things get exciting. Not telling any more, just buy the book and enjoy the story!

  Well there were some twists and unexpected turns in this one. But that's good , to have a few ups and downs and different roads to travel. As long as you get to your destination. : )

  3 point shot straight to the heart
  
  Nate and Lucy's story has many twists and turns... is there even a small chance for a HEA??? Will anger and secrets be too much???
  Happy reading : )

  Good quick read. Little unrealistic in parts but still pretty good. I did find a few typos but nothing to take away from the story.
