NEW RELEASE & REVIEW: Jock Row by Sara Ney






Scarlett is always the sensible one: 
The sober driver. 
The planner. 
The one holding your hair back while you're worshiping the porcelain gods.

Week-after-week, she visits Jock Row with her friends—the universities hottest party scene and breeding ground for student athletes. 
And if keeping her friends out of trouble, and guys out of their pants, was a sport, she'd be the star athlete.

Being a well known jock-blocker gets her noticed for all the wrong reasons; just like that, she's banned from Jock Row. 

NO GUY WANTS A GIRL AROUND WHO KEEPS THEIR JOCK FRIENDS FROM GETTING LAID.

"Rowdy" Wade is the hot shot short-stop for the university's baseball team—and the unlucky bastard who drew the short straw: keep little Miss Goody Two-Shoes out of the Baseball House.

But week-after-week Scarlett returns, determined to get inside.



Caroline's Review

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


Slow burn, freakin' sexy read! Gorgeous! Adored it!

"Ugh. He's so stupidly good-looking and getting cuter by the minute - damn him and his magnetic personality."

Scarlett Ripley agrees to attend a party on Jock Row because she just wants to have some fun and see people, after being cooped up indoors with a bad cold. However, she's not willing to compromise on her clothes or what she drinks. She's still sensible, after all. She also can't believe what comes out of some guys' mouths, even though they might be easy on the eye. When one hot jock asks her to step outside so he can ask her something, she doesn't realise until it's too late that she's just been kicked out of the house and the party!

"Little does she f*cking know we're outside because I think she's pretty and it's too hard to talk inside with all the noise.

Sterling 'Rowdy' Wade drew the short straw. However, once he gets the 'cock blocker' out on the porch, he thoroughly enjoys their snappy conversation and finds her sassiness refreshing. And, when she smiles....he's an absolute sucker for dimples.

"I've never, in my whole goddamn life, worked so hard to get someone to put their mouth on mine."

I ADORED Scarlett and Rowdy!! These two started out as flirty friends, as they took a simmering, slow-burn slide into freakin' sexy luurrvve! I absolutely enjoyed how the author rolled out their story with the timeline she used, and the games that they played. Flip! Their first kiss was all kinds of hot! 

Scarlett was a pretty strong character. I loved how confident she was and not particularly worried about other people's perception of her. She walked her own path, spoke her mind, and wasn't bothered about conforming or being popular. 

"I'm an athlete - a champion. I play hard and jock harder, and these little games I've started with her? I'm playing to win."

Rowdy was a solid guy. He understood the perks and pitfalls of being captain of the baseball team, but he refused to pander to the lifestyle that came with it. I loved that he was pretty down-to-earth, had his fair share of insecurities, but could also be cocky and crass. It made for a funny contrast. He was just such a gorgeous guy, inside and out. I loved his determination and patience to hold out for Scarlett, and how committed he was to her from very early on. I enjoyed his view of her - that he found her genuine, smart, beautiful and adorable; completely different from the groupies who normally hung around.

There's no angst in this book - it was just a fun, amusing, romantic, hot read. Thoroughly recommend.
