Jock Row by Sara Ney
4.0
I'm not sure how accurate this rating is, because I was expecting a different story. Let's start with the fact that I was expecting this erotic romance novel and got this cute sort of friends to lovers story. I think it was supposed to be enemies to friends to lovers story, but the enemies part was close to non-existent.
Please don't be put off by the next part. I'm going to say what annoyed me about this book first.
I've got to say in the beginning of the story Scarlett kinda got on my nerves. I couldn't understand why she wanted to go to this party so much, especially if she was still feeling a little sick. Then she goes to this party and is just so obnoxiously rude and a little annoying. I understand wanting to save your friends from making horrible decisions in the bedroom department, but if your friends are ok with falling for stupid pick-up lines, and don't care if a guy lies to them, you don't take it out on the guys, you tell your friends! Don't go yelling at guys you don't know, they're trying to get laid what else do you expect from a guy with bad pick-up lines. Instead tell your friends not to fall for the stupid lines and lies. She gets kicked out of the party for being a cock blocker, here is where I'm happy that the main love interest is not one of the guys with the horrible pick-up lines, but instead their incredibly handsome team captain. At the same time, I also have a hard time understanding why she works so hard to get back into a party where she wasn't enjoying herself. I also get upset that her friends don't come out of the party and join her, they just let her walk out with a complete stranger.
Ok now for the good part.
I loved how she and Sterling "Rowdy" got to know each other. They had cute, get to know each other games, and were funny together. Him talking to his mom about her was so cute. The sex scenes did come and they again were great. They had just the perfect amount of raunchy and sweetness. I ended up giggling and laughing and just being so excited about this story and wanting to see how it would end.
Good Job!
