Synopsis:
Lara
I left everything I ever wanted at the altar. Now, all I want is them.
After blowing up my entire life in one afternoon, a fresh start in the small town of Benson Cove is exactly what I need. The only problem is that this fresh start came with an unexpected Mitchell Bourke–single dad, hot rugby-playing neighbor, and…my new boss.
He needed a nanny and I needed a job, but I’m falling harder and harder every day. Luckily, a perfect distraction by the name of Casey Young walked right through the door of this bar and swept me off my feet. But I might have bitten off more than I can chew, because it turns out Mitchell and Casey aren’t just teammates, they’re total opposites. They only thing they have in common? Their feelings for me.
Now, I’m standing in my driveway, facing the past I thought I left behind, and selfishly hoping I might be able to call both of them mine.
Match of the Season is book three in the interconnected Rucked and Ruined series written by Chloe Hart.
It can be read as a standalone or as part of the series.
Review:
And that’s how you make a memorable exit. Lara did society an amazing service by getting out of a bad situation. I feel like this should become the new gold standard. 🙂
In an effort to let everything calm down, she took up temporary residence in a small town. She comes across as slightly chaotic yet surprisingly well-balanced. She either does things exceptionally well or they go horribly wrong. There doesn’t seem to be anything in between, and I love that for us.
Her meeting the friendly neighbour and his lovely daughter set the stage for an interesting story filled with many funny interactions. Watching her find her place, understand what is truly important in life, and be treated like the queen she is was incredibly satisfying. She did have two very supportive men helping her get there, though. 🙂
You really have to immerse yourself in the story. While it might not be something I would consider easy to translate into real life, it worked very well for me on the page.
