Synopsis:
Hockey’s most eligible bachelor must run interference to get the one girl he can’t have.
Sydney:
I’d never even heard of Caleb Prescott, God’s gift to hockey. Who watches hockey anyways? Not me, I’m too busy with college and work. My part-time just for fun job has now asked me to recruit this player for a new dating show. Sounds easy enough. . .until he insists I become part of the show.
Caleb:
I only agreed to compete on the dating show to get closer to Sydney—the redhead pixie I’d do anything to see again. But unlike the women competing for my affection, or the puck bunnies desperate for my attention, Sydney isn’t impressed by my hockey skills. I never miss a shot, I don’t care if she calls interference, I’ll do anything to win her heart.
EXCERPT
Caleb As she was about to rush into explaining when I would board the cruise-liner, as if I had agreed to it, I held up my hand. “Miss Meadows.” God that sounded too formal for a woman like her. “Sydney,” I tried again, definitely preferring the taste of it on my tongue. “How about we meet over coffee or something tomorrow? Ten?” Her eyes widened slightly, just briefly, before she nodded with a fixed smile in place. “Of course. Yes, that will give you more time to let it sink in. So long as you agree to—” I cut her off with a grin. While yes, this show was against everything I had ever thought for myself, I had a feeling that sitting with Sydney and talking to her about the show, as if I were agreeing to it, would be the only time I’d see this gorgeous redhead again. I didn’t quite know what was drawing me to this short pixie of a woman, but I definitely wanted to see her again. Tomorrow I’d have no time constraints and she could talk all she wanted. But before I realized the words were out of my mouth though, I said, “I’ll do it,” agreeing to her pitch. Shit. Fuck. The smile filling her face wasn’t one I was about to take away, and her amber eyes danced, lightening just slightly to bring out fiery red specks. “We can discuss contestants tomorrow then. Wonderful. Oh, great!” I had to swallow a chuckle at her obvious excitement. We agreed on a place to meet and I watched her leave out of the corner of my eye while heading toward the ice. Like I said, I liked her ass.
MY REVIEW
If there was ever a perfect hero, Caleb is it. As soon as I read the synopsis I was ready for an angsty journey with Caleb and Sydney and I definitely got that. But I was also given the swooniest hero. I finished this book a while ago and I still get a smile on my face when I think about it. From the very start to the very end, Sydney and Caleb's relationship kept me anticipating what was coming next and continually falling in love with a hero who found his soul mate in the unlikeliest of places.
Sydney is a college student trying to break into the industry and do well on her first solo assignment. When she's tasked with getting hockey star Caleb Prescott to sign up for a new dating show, she's determined to get him to sign on the dotted line. What she doesn't expect is for him to say yes and then ask for her to come along. Putting aside that she knows next to nothing about hockey, she agrees so that finding him his perfect mate on the show will be a success.
Caleb really wants nothing to do with a reality show. But he finds himself unable to say no to Sydney. When he realizes that the show is a way to stay close to Sydney, he makes sure that he'll have plenty of alone time with her before the show starts. But after a connection is made, he still has to spend time whittling down the potential dating pool in front of millions of people. It seems like a long shot, but Caleb is determined to make Sydney his, no matter what their current circumstances.
I have a serious affection for Caleb Prescott. He is just everything. And Sydney was his perfect match. Their witty banter and budding friendship made me giggle and smile all the while the anticipation of what was to come made me clutch my Kindle a little tighter hoping nothing went horribly awry. While it wasn't all smooth sailing, Caleb and Sydney's dual pov really helped me feel what they were going through and understand each of their choices (even if I wasn't always exactly happy with them). By the end, I was a mess of emotions but only in the best way and I cannot wait to see what happens with the rest of the Prescotts.

Synopsis: Before the Prescott name became big in the hockey world, there was just Noah Prescott, fighting for a spot on an NHL roster. Never did he imagine a simple note from a shy fan would speed up his world. Ryleigh Scott had an issue talking to men, but she knew she couldn't pass up the opportunity to talk to Noah -- potentially negative labels, be damned. Never did she imagine a simple note would start what could only be described as the beginning of the rest of her life. This is Noah and Ryleigh -- before the NHL contract, before the kids, before going back home. This is Noah and Ryleigh from the beginning.
ABOUT MIGNON MYKEL
Mignon is a twenty-something (…getting awfully close to thirty-something) who resides in Wisconsin. An avid reader since her preschool days, she ‘blames’ her mother for teaching her to read during that all-important time during a forming brain. Some of her earlier memories of reading include her mother buying her a book at the mall — and finishing the book before they even returned home. Writing happened soon after the reading started. Her first writing piece can be found in a box of other important papers from growing up. It’s about an apple who was her friend, but she had to eat. The first series Mignon started to write was about a close family of one brother and his three younger sisters. She started writing this family and their friends in 2005, but as soon as the Prescott family took over her mind, the Ashbys fell silent. Maybe someday we’ll all hear from the Ashbys, but those Prescotts…. The Prescotts are excited to have their stories told.
