Lee's Review - For Kicks by Jenna Bayley-Burke

Visit Jenna's web-site


Summary:
If the shoe fits…run with it!

Breeze Cohen senses something is missing from her life, but her career doesn’t leave time for anything but retail business strategy—particularly the upcoming product launch for her cornerstone client, Nitrous.

No way is she going to let live-for-the-moment Logan Chandler tarnish her professional reputation. Even if the ex-athlete poster boy for Nitrous makes her heart pound like she’s run a marathon.

After surviving a near-fatal accident, Logan doesn’t want to waste a minute of life. It’s meant to be lived, ravished, enjoyed—and there’s no one he’d like to ravish more than Breeze. There’s a deep pool of mutual desire beneath her icy façade. He can feel it every time they touch.

When a training snafu at Nitrous launches Breeze into damage control, Logan is ready and waiting to lace up and take her for a run on the wilder side—if he can catch her.

This book has been previously published.

Product Warnings:  Side effects may include a desire to melt chocolate with body heat, spontaneous phone sex, and an intense drive to find loopholes in your workplace fraternization policy.

Lee's Review:
I'll admit that at first, I was a little skeptical about this book. The first chapter or so started out slowly so I wasn't sure whether or not it could grab my attention and keep it through the whole book but I'm so glad I stuck with it!

Logan is a free spirited type of guy that. After the loss of both of his parents and an accident that cost him is professional soccer career, he is determined to live each day to its fullest and have fun along the way. Breeze has spent the last ten years dedicating her entire life to her career at the expense of everything else.

When the two of them first meet its obvious that the chemistry between them is unlike anything else. This story is all about opposites attracting. I loved that Jenna Bayley-Burke wrote Logan the way she did. He pursued Breeze like "a Black Friday shopper" and it definitely added to the humor of this story, as did Breeze's attempts to always turn the tables on Logan. Although it had a slow build up in the beginning with was well worth it and I will definitely be recommending For Kicks to all of my friends.
