THE OVERTIME KISS (Love and Hockey #5) by Lauren Blakely Review

The Overtime Kiss (Love and Hockey, #5)The Overtime Kiss by Lauren Blakely
My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Lauren Blakely lights the lamp with THE OVERTIME KISS (Love and Hockey #5). In this story, figure skater Sabrina Snow calls off her wedding after discovering her fiancé had cheated on her. She gets a job as NHL defenseman Tyler Falcon’s nanny. She is also Tyler's daughter's skating coach.

Tyler is the younger brother of Miles Falcon (THE GIRLFRIEND ZONE, Love and Hockey #5). Sabrina is friends with the other women in the series.

Lauren Blakely does an excellent job with this story. I enjoyed the characters. They have great chemistry. I love Sabrina’s relationship with Tyler’s kids. Sabrina and Tyler both have issues with their fathers. They face interesting challenges and experiences.

THE OVERTIME KISS is the perfect addition to the Love and Hockey series. It is a heartfelt and entertaining read. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book.

About THE OVERTIME KISS (Coming 6/18/2025):

Just what every bride dreams of—running straight from her cheating fiancé into the arms of a hot hockey star… and then getting hired as his kids’ nanny.

Tyler Falcon is protective, flirtatious…and frustratingly responsible. We almost did something reckless when he found me alone in my wedding dress, and I blurted out all the things I’d never truly experienced.

Now, the sexy single dad is saving me again with a job I desperately need—and a promise to never mention The Night of 1001 Confessions.

I live in his house. Take care of his kids. Pretend I don’t notice his heated gaze lingering on me after they fall asleep.

Until one night, the tension snaps.

Now we have a deal. Five lessons in seduction. No strings attached.

But he’s not just good in bed. He spoils me with thoughtful gifts and supports my dreams. For the first time, I feel like I belong. 

Except…this was never meant to last. I’m his employee. He has kids to protect. And neither of us can afford to make a mistake.

The more nights we spend tangled up together though, the harder it is to pretend it’s just physical. Because I’m not only falling for my boss—I’m falling for the man whose kids have stolen my heart.

Tropes: single dad/nanny, runaway bride, forced proximity, spicy lessons, she's his daughter's skating coach, confession of all secrets, love notes, found family

THE GIRLFRIEND ZONE by Lauren Blakely

I had one date with Leighton McBride before I found out she’s the coach’s daughter. And now the only woman I want is the one woman I can’t have.


From #1 New York Times bestselling author Lauren Blakely, comes the next standalone hockey romance in her Love and Hockey series, THE GIRLFRIEND ZONE! This sexy, coach’s daughter, one who got away, age gap, forbidden hockey romance brings all the feels, heat and spice! THE GIRLFRIEND ZONE is now available in all formats including the special edition hardcover and free to read in Kindle Unlimited. Check out the excerpt below and one-click your copy today!

✦ Amazon ➜ https://blkly.pub/TheGirlfriendZoneAMZ
✦ Audible ➜ https://blkly.pub/TGZAudible
Samantha Brentmoor & Jason Clarke narrate in duet!


About THE GIRLFRIEND ZONE:

In my defense, I had no idea the tattooed, glasses-wearing, soulful hottie I spent one perfect day—and one unforgettable night—with was a hockey star on my father’s team.

And Miles didn’t know I was the coach’s daughter.

That’s the point of a “no-work-talk” date.

But now? He's as forbidden to me as I am to him.

When I land a new gig as the team photographer, we vow to keep it professional. We mostly succeed…except for that time after a game when he couldn’t keep his talented hands off me. But I swear, it won’t happen again.

Too much is at stake—I can’t risk my heart or my father’s team.

But when I end up living at Miles’s place to care for his pack of rescue pups, the lines blur fast. Late nights turn into stolen moments and I discover there’s more to him than I ever imagined—a man who’s genuine, thoughtful, and irresistibly real.

He looks at me like he can’t believe his luck. Touches me like he never wants to let go. And listens to my hopes and fears.

My heart’s getting dangerously attached. But if I follow it… am I putting everyone’s dreams on the line?

READ THE EXCERPT:

Miles

I breathe out hard, giving in to the lust that grips me, the want I feel for her…my coach’s daughter.

For a few seconds, I freeze over those words—coach’s daughter. 

Don’t go there again. Get it together. Stop f*&king thinking of her.

But the dick is sometimes stronger than the will.

I ignore that voice because it doesn’t matter what I do when I’m home alone. It’s what I do when I’m with her that counts. I haven’t crossed the line again. And baggage or no baggage, we’re not going to be a thing. But her admission that she looks at the pictures too? It’s what I wanted. It’s what I needed. It’s also all I can have of her.

So what’s the harm in giving in tonight?

The Girlfriend Zone (Love and Hockey #4) by Lauren Blakely Review

The Girlfriend Zone (Love and Hockey, #4)The Girlfriend Zone by Lauren Blakely
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Lauren Blakely scores with THE GIRLFRIEND ZONE (Love and Hockey #4).
Sea Dogs player Miles Falcon meets the woman of his dreams, photographer Leighton McBride. They spend an incredible day (and night) together before discovering that Miles plays for the team her father coaches.
Now, they need to stay away from each other. However, various circumstances keep making that difficult, and they have difficulty resisting each other.

Lauren Blakely does a great job with this story. It is skillfully written and entertaining. I like the characters. Miles is the hot nerd. Leighton wears a hearing aid and has some insecurities as a result of past experiences. They are well developed and face interesting scenarios.

THE GIRLFRIEND ZONE is an excellent addition to the Love and Hockey series. I am looking forward to book five, THE OVERTIME KISS. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book.

THE PROPOSAL PLAY by Lauren Blakely

What happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay there—especially when your best friend becomes your husband.


My plan when I win a date in Vegas with my brother’s hockey star best friend? Poker and go to sleep early. Instead, I wake up with a ring on my finger and the sexy athlete naked in my bed.

About THE PROPOSAL PLAY:

My plan when I win a date in Vegas with my brother’s hockey star best friend? Poker and go to sleep early. Instead, I wake up with a ring on my finger and the sexy athlete naked in my bed.

But Asher’s my best friend too so we’ll get this annulled and laugh about this secret for years to come.

Trouble is our wedding pics went viral overnight.

Now everyone thinks we’re a real couple. We race back home, where I’ve just landed the big art commission of my dreams and he’s launching a sports charity so we need to look like we meant to tie the knot.

Easy enough. We’ll claim we’ve been secretly in love, while staying in separate rooms for the rest of the hockey season.

The last thing either one of us wants is to ruin a decade-long friendship by falling into bed again.

But I experience a new side of my husband at home. He cooks for me, encourages me…and buys me so many toys.

And, it’s more fun to share your toys with a friend.

We’re just enjoying temporary marital benefits.

Except, the more times he calls me his wife, the more I start to wonder if Asher was ever pretending?

And if my heart is ready to take the biggest risk of all.

READ THE EXCERPT:

It’s a soulful, lingering kiss that thrums deep in my bones. She’s soft in my arms, her breath gusting across her lips. A whimper crosses them too, and it sounds like a plea for more. 

I want to swallow all her sounds, let them lead me on into the night.

Because they are not platonic.

They are not friendly.

They are unbearably sexy and needy.

Maeve Hartley tastes incredible, and this kiss rattles through my entire body, touching every damn corner of me. I don’t let go. As I kiss her more deeply, I’m struck with a cold, new clarity. It wasn’t merely affection I felt all along. It wasn’t simply lust either. It’s a whole lot more than basic attraction.

I’m wildly, annoyingly obsessed with my best friend.

Otherwise known as…my wife.
