Tangled in the LacesToni AleoFirst off, you need to look at this story as a prologue to a future book. If you go in with this attitude you won’t be disappointed. Basically, Karson King falls head over heels in love with his best friend sister, Lacey Martin. Lacey doesn't want anything to do with Karson for fear she will end up broken. By the end of Tangled in the Laces, Karson is forced to make a choice, but isn’t allowed to let Lacey know anything.By the end of the novella, you feel horrible for Karson, because he’s made to look like the bad guy. Man I hope everything works out for him when the rest of the story comes out and I hope the true bastard gets what is coming to him.Hooking HannahCassandra Carr & Cindy CarrIn Hooking Hannah, we meet Scott Richard. After the All-Star game he finds himself drawn to gal who his hanging out with a player he knows. Comes to find out that she’s the sister-in-law to the guy. Instantly attracted to Hannah, he wants to get to know her better. Hannah is not one to chase hockey jocks, but she seems drawn to Scott.Loved Hooking Hannah! It had steam and funny parts. I personally like the inner dialogue between Scott and Hannah. Scott pretty much won me over with his charm. For a quick little read, it sure packs in the steam and a pretty good story for being a novella.Crashing the BoardsJami DavenportCrashing the Boards was an all right story. I can see a lot a of potential to this story. I get the feeling that the story between Izzy Maxwell and Cooper Black is just getting started. So, I’m curious how this is going to play out, because Cooper isn’t happy being in Seattle, so that should be interesting. I guess we have to wait and see. At least we don’t have to wait too long for the story to continue.Taking a ShotCatherine GayleAll right, I cried in Taking a Shot. We have Katie Weber whose father is a hockey player and she’s had a crush on one of his teammates, Jamie Babcock. She decides to shave her head, because of her hair is starting to fall out cause of the cancer treatment. She just saw herself as no one ever wanting to be with, especially Jamie.I really liked this story, because it’s sweet and sentimental. Jamie decides he wants to take Katie to prom. Jamie was just so sweet to her during the whole time. Sweet story. I don’t know if there is a future for these two or not.A Valuable TradeJaymee JacobsI enjoyed A Valuable Trade. I thought it was a pretty good story, even though I had a little issue with Brian doing something he shouldn’t have done. However, it workout for the best for him and he sure was lucky. Once the matter was settled, I thought Brian and Georgiana were really cute together. The story could probably be a longer story, but it seems to manage fine as a novella.Heir ApparentV.L. LoceySo, I read Heir Apparent. First off, M/M stories are not my cup of tea. They just don’t appeal to me. However, for those that enjoy these types of stories, Heir Apparent felt like a complete story. I believe this story will appeal to those who enjoy M/M romance.Blind PassBianca SommerlandI liked Blind Pass. I enjoyed the relationship between Madeline and Tim. There’s not much I can say about this novella. I like how Madeline decide to take a chance on Tim, when his brother was more her type.Captain, My CaptainNikki WorrellI have to say that I could see Captain, My Captain as a full-length novel. However, it was fine as a novella. I like how Keith and Kelly kind of latched on to one another. Overall, a nice read.
