What does the cover say?
Chelsea Ross knows she’s a great actress. Which is lucky, as she’s just got the toughest role of her life!
Washed up from Hollywood and in serious need of cash, Chelsea jumps at the $10,000 opportunity to act as ‘carer’ to famous hockey player Mark Bressler, injured after a car crash. After all, how hard can it be to play nice and pick up after an incredibly hot invalid in need of her tender loving care? Just three months of playing nurse and the cash is hers.
But Mark Bressler doesn’t need help. The moody hockey player’s glory days may be over, but he has no intention of letting anyone aid his recovery, least of all the maddeningly cheerful Chelsea. He’s determined to get her to quit – and Mark isn’t the type to give in. But then, neither is Chelsea…
What I thought
I am partial to a bit of 'chic lit' and enjoyed the story of this book. Chelsea is an aspiring actress who gets a job looking after an arrogant hockey player who is unable to play following a tragic accident. I devoured this book in 3 days so an extremely easy to read book. I hadn't read any others in the series but it did not affect the story in any way. It can be best described as 'trashy chick lit'... yes the development of the characters is lacking and the writing isn't brilliant. It was almost as if Chelsea was narrating in the 3rd person with some of the language used but you know what? If you like a raunchy, trashy chic lit novel, this is for you. I've read a fair few heavy titles recently and this is just what I needed. Enjoy...
