Book Review: Park Avenue Player by Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland

47865691. sy475

It started out like any normal day.

Then the fender bender happened.

The guy I collided with drove an expensive car and was drop-dead gorgeous. Too bad he was also a total jerk. We argued over whose fault it was and any other thing that came out of his condescending mouth.

Eventually, the police came and we went our separate ways. The insurance companies would have to figure things out. I had a job interview to get to anyway—one I was excited about.

Though that excitement changed to disappointment the moment the person interviewing me walked in. The guy from the accident.

Whoops!


Yeah, so I didn’t get the position.

The problem was, I really wanted it. No, I needed it. Anything to get me out of my current career and back into working with kids.

So, even though Hollis LaCroix was as intimidating as he was devastatingly handsome, I went back to see him and begged for a chance.

To my surprise, he gave me a shot taking care of his troubled niece.

At least my attraction to him wouldn’t be able to go anywhere. I wasn’t about to jeopardize my job or the strong bond Hailey and I formed.

But resisting the magnetic pull between us wasn’t that simple. (Then there was our little underwear game—don’t ask.)

We continued to flirt without crossing the line—until it finally happened.

This is the part of the story where we fall in love and live happily ever after, right?

Well, life has a way of throwing some major curveballs.

Ours was one I didn’t see coming.


I did not see that coming!! OMG what a plot twist. If I wasn’t already in love with the story the twist doubled all the feels.  Park Avenue Player is a sexy, heart-warming romance with plenty of LOL moments. We even get some fainting goat action!
Elodie is ready to change careers, her current career had run its course. Too bad on the way to her interview she had a small mishap with the same man who would be her boss, Hollis LaCroix.  Elodie doesn’t let it deter her from winning over Hollis.  Once he gives her a try there’s no turning back.
Elodie and Hollis past heartbreaks makes for some angsty moments and huge hurdles.  The plot twist made this one of my favorites of the year. 5 Stars
