Blog Tour Review: Slope of Love – Melissa Foster

Posted May 16, 2014 by Shannon in Blog Tour, Reviews, Shannon / 0 Comments

Slope of Love CoverOlympic gold medalist skiers Jayla Stone and Rush Remington have been best friends for years. They’ve seen each other at their best and worst and have kept each other’s secrets without fail. Only there’s one secret Rush has kept close to his chest. After months of introspection, Rush realizes he’s been filling his bed but not tending to his heart. He’s changed his womanizing ways, and the only woman who can fill his heart has been right by his side all this time.

Years of intimate conversations and the sharing of hopes and dreams collide when Rush reveals his secret, and one toe-curling kiss changes everything between Rush and Jayla. They’re no match for the passion that kiss ignites, or the pull of true love. But being Rush’s best friend means knowing all about his revolving bedroom door–and Jayla has a secret of her own that could jeopardize her career and her relationship with Rush. Even their love may not be enough to overcome Rush’s past or secure Jayla’s future.

Reviewer’s Thoughts

3.5 Cocktails

SLOPE OF LOVE gives us Remington sibling Rush’s story and it’s one (for whatever reason) I’ve been looking forward to.

Through the other books in the series, we’ve had glimpses of Rush, but we discover that the Olympic Skier playboy is not what we think. Β He was given a wake up call and discovers that the one person he has depended on for the past fifteen years in the one woman that can curb his playboy ways. Β Rush isn’t shy about the fact that he was with a lot of women, instead he owns it and does his best to prove to everyone (including himself) that he’s changed. Β Jayla understands him like no other and he can’t imagine himself with anyone else. Β I liked how it was as if a switch had been flipped and suddenly Rush was this alpha male who would do anything to protect and provide for his female.

Jayla may not have thought that was what she wanted, but the change in Rush appealed to her. Β She’s been in love with him since they were teenagers, but there was something about him wanting to take care of her that did it for her. Β She knew, he didn’t agree with her and her drive to compete while hurting, but he understood and did what he needed to in order to ease her pain. Β Jayla didn’t think she wanted that in a man, but with that change in Rush she loved it.

I liked the Rush and Jayla together. Β I liked how the author took those fifteen years of being best friends and pushed them over into lovers. Β That combination doesn’t always work, but it definitely did for this couple.
