Boyfriend Material by Ilsa Madden-Mills~ARC review

 


Blurb:

Skyscraper cheekbones, lush lips, and magnetic topaz eyes.
I’m talking about Eric Hansen.
Rich prick.
Glorified hockey star.
Thinks he’s amazing.
Yeah. The Golden Boy and I are well acquainted. In prep school he trampled on my heart and kept right on going.

Three years later, he’s living the high life with frat parties and puck bunnies at Hawthorne University. On the other hand, people barely notice me. I’m the nobody, surviving in the seedy part of town as I struggle to keep my head above treacherous waters.

The avoidance game we’ve been playing was working—until he rescues me from a bad guy and claims he wants to help me more. Hello. I don’t need a knight in shining armor. This girl saves herself.

Yet… I'm not sure how long I can ignore the undeniable spark between us.
(It’s not even a spark; it’s a full-fledged, blazing fire.)

Can this hockey player prove he’s boyfriend material, or will this be a game we both lose?


My Review:

I have to tell you I love the hockey stars on Hawthorne University. :)  I love the author's writing, her style. She created a perfect couple this time too. I couldn't put the book down, I read it in one day! It was a heart-warming, second chance romance.

I loved that it was written in alternate point of views.

I liked Julia. She was in trouble, she had a hard life with her mother, but she was strong, and then  Eric came to help her... They had a past a few years ago, he broke her heart. Eric was a tipical womanizer back then. He had her then left her. 

As I read Eric's POV I understood why was he that way. He went through a lot, he had a traumatic past and his parents didn't care what he wanted. 

Both Julia and Eric were  complex characters, I loved that about them. They felt real, they weren't perfect, and this was what I love in a book. I could understand them, and I understood their feelings.

I think this book is a perfect read for a weekend or for a holiday by the pool  or on the beach. I loved it! Top recommendation!
