Friend Locked (Salt Lake Pumas) by Camellia Tate Review

Friend Locked by Camellia Tate
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Camellia Tate lights the lamp with FRIEND LOCKED. Salt Lake Pumas NHL star Felix and dancer Jessie Edwards have been best friends since they were ten years old. Neither one of them ever wanted to cross the friendship line out of fear of losing their friendship. Now Jessie has relocated to Salt Lake City, and they start to question their feeling for one another. This contemporary sports romance is suitable for adult readers.

I could relate to Felix. While my parents never owned a zoo, my friends always joke that we have one. There is something about fellow animal lovers who tugs my heart. I love that Jessie and Felix have the same birthday. I enjoyed the snippets into their lives as they were growing up starting with when they met at age ten. I love all the animals, but I especially loved Rudolph and his role in the story.

FRIEND LOCKED is a great addition to the Salt Lake Pumas series. It could easily be followed as a stand-alone but Felix is in the previous book, as well as the other characters in the series being in this story. FRIEND LOCKED was skillfully written and entertaining throughout. I recommend this book to people who enjoy hockey, animals, and/or friends to lover’s romances. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

Penalty Counted (Salt Lake Pumas Book 3) by Camellia Tate Review

Penalty Counted by Camellia Tate
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Camellia Tate has a clutch performance with PENALTY COUNTED (Salt Lake Pumas Book 3). This is the story of hockey player Chase Williams and race car driver Morgan Action. This novel takes place in Salt Lake City, Utah. It is suitable for adult readers.

PENALTY COUNTED is an entertaining read. It had some role reversal where the one-night stands were concerned. Chase learned what it was like to be on the receiving end.

Chase and Morgan are a lot alike. They both are adrenaline junkies that enjoy a good time. It was appealing watching them mature. I like how their view of taking new risks changed as they developed feeling for each other. It was interesting reading the difference between when the couple communicate well and when they did not. I like how Chase handled himself with his best friend Flynn. Chase is a good guy who worried about failing his friend.

PENALTY COUNTED was a solid addition to the Salt Lake Pumas series. While characters from the other books were in this novel, it could be followed as a stand-alone. I recommend this book to people who enjoy strong female characters and sports romances. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

Body Checked (Salt Lake Pumas, #2) Camellia Tate Review

Body Checked by Camellia Tate
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Camellia Tate lights the lamp with Body Checked (Salt Lake Pumas, #2). Hockey defenseman Will Green is out for the season due to an injury. He decides to adopt a Newfoundland puppy named Teddy, since he always wanted a dog and now has some free time. On a walk with Teddy, he meets Lacey and her husky Vega. Will does not do relationships, but fate seems to make sure they continue to bump into each other. This contemporary sports romance is suitable for adult readers.

Body Checked is a heartfelt and entertaining read. Being a husky owner, I loved Vega. I enjoyed that Will and Lacey are both new pet owners and have each other for support. I liked that they built a friendship and could rely on each other. I adored how Lacey was a romantic and Will didn’t think he had a romantic bone in his body. Both characters are likable and good together.

Body Checked was skillfully written and had a great pace. I appreciate that this story took place at the same time as Gloves Dropped (Salt Lake Pumas, #1). It was fun reading the overlap in the two books. I look forward to the next book in this series. I recommend this book to people that love animals and sports romances. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

Gloves Dropped (Salt Lake Pumas, #1) by Camellia Tate Review

Gloves Dropped by Camellia Tate
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Camellia Tate has a game-winner with Gloves Dropped (Salt Lake Pumas, #1). In this novel, Captain of the Salt Lake Pumas NHL team, Luke Nash, is shocked when the woman who ruined his life, El Sterling, accepts a job as the nutritionist for the team. This contemporary sports romance is suitable for adult readers.

This was a fabulous enemy to lover's romance. Luke and El went to the same high school and have not seen each other in years. There was an incident that changed their lives. They both have different perspectives of what happened that night. Luke has horrible food allergies; therefore, he must work closely with El who is the new nutritionist for the team. They get to know each other and question their past actions. I love how the characters evolved. They both do some soul-searching and reevaluate their history.

Gloves Dropped was skillfully written. The story was thought-provoking and had some great life lessons. I love using Alexa for cooking, so I appreciated the cooking scenes. I recommend this story to people who love sports romances, have food allergies, and/or enjoy enemies to lovers’ romances. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

Game Plan (Madison Howlers #1) by Camellia Tate Review

Game Plan by Camellia Tate
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In the world where this story takes place, the name of peoples soulmate's magically appear somewhere on their skin. When hockey star, Connor Lewis, is photographed with his soulmates name exposed, every Ashley thinks she is the one. Connor asks Ashley Walton to be his pretend girlfriend, so he can focus on hockey.

I thought the soulmate concept of the story was interesting. It led to some thought-provoking scenarios in the novel. I liked Connor and Ashley. They had different viewpoints about soulmates. I enjoyed how they got to know each other. They faced challenges and grew through the story.

Camellia Tate did a nice job with this story. Game Plan made a great foundation for the Madison Howlers series. I am interested in continuing to follow this series. I recommend Game Plan to people who enjoy sports romances. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader's copy of this book.
