Romance

Nothing But Trouble
4 Stars

In the aftermath of the accident that cost his career and almost his life, Mark Bressler resents everyone and everything, but highest on his list of annoyances is his newest personal assistant, Chelsea Ross. Pint sized and perky, Chelsea has zero tolerance for the brooding former hockey captain and is determined to earn the huge bonus coming her way for putting up with his nonsense.

Like most of the men in this series, Mark is more than a little bit of a jerk in his treatment of Chelsea. She, on the other hand, is delightful, and her witty comebacks to his obnoxious taunts are hilarious.

Mark and Chelsea have great chemistry and their love scenes are sensual. Their emotional connections isn't as strong however, and it is not really clear why they fall in love. Moreover, the minor conflict toward the end is contrive. Nevertheless, the writing fast paced and Gibson's style is very readable.

All in all, a delightful office type romance. ( )

Great audio narrator and a minimum of sappiness until the end. ( )

I do like Rachel Gibson's books. This one was fun and a fast read but I thought the plot was a little thin. Beyond a sexual attraction, I didn't really feel that the hero and heroine were really right for each other. It need more work to make that feel right. This one had a hockey background. I think Gibson is working her way through the whole team seem I remember some of the characters' romances from other books. I have no problem with that. ( )

"4.5 out of 5 stars!!! This was my first time reading a book by Rachel and I have to say it was a "hit out of the park!!" I LOVED..."
