Cocktails and Books received this book for free from Blog Tour, Social Butterfly PR in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect our opinion of the book or the content of our review.
I realized when I reached the end of Block Shot, that I have read every book Ms Ryan has written. In all of that, I think Ms Ryan is one of the most consistent authors I’ve read. I don’t mean consistent in that each book is the same, but consistent in that each book contains a rare excellence in her writing and each book captures a challenging idea and uses her characters to explore that.
Banner and Jared are another part of that journey. Both are incredibly strong characters that aren’t perfect, but the imperfections make them more real.
Banner is the type of female lead that I would want to hold up to my daughter as an example of a strong, take charge woman. I found myself rooting for Jared to get what he wanted – he was a male lead that I like because of his imperfections.
Themes of self-acceptance, loyalty, fate, and love in all its forms filled the book.
As with all Ms Ryan’s books, there are epic moments and quotes that make the emotions scream off the page.
This an interconnected stand-alone and can easily be read on its own but is a stronger read if Long Shot has been read first. This series is one I highly recommend.
“Kennedy Ryan’s writing continues to amaze and inspire. She is a genius wordsmith and a prose poet. And in Banner Morales, she has created the perfect heroine for this day and age. Don’t miss this read. It’s everything.” — Emma Scott, Bestselling Author

JARED
If I had a dollar for every time Banner Morales made my heart skip a beat…
The heart everyone assumes is frozen over.
Her anger is…arousing.
Every glare from those fire-spitting eyes, every time she grits her teeth,
gets me…well, you know.
If I had a dollar for every time she’s put me in my place, I’d be an even richer man.
I’m a successful sports agent because I assume “no” means you’ll think about it.
I’m sure what you meant to say is “Coming right up.”
They say even rich men don’t always get what they want,
but those men don’t know how to play the game. The trick is to keep them guessing.
Take Banner. She assumes she’s winning, but this game?
She doesn’t even know how to play.
BANNER
If I had a dollar for every time Jared Foster broke my heart, I’d have exactly one dollar.
One night. One epic fail. One dollar…and I’m out.
I’ve moved on.
I’ve found success in a field ruled by men.
Anything they can do, I have done better.
They can keep the field while I call the shots, blocking them when I have to.
And Jared has the nerve to think he gets a second chance?
Boy, please. Go sit down. Have several seats.
I’ll just be over here ignoring the man carved from my fantasies with a lust-tipped chisel.
Oh, I didn’t say the struggle wasn’t real.
But I’ve got that one dollar, and Jared won’t have me.
