She always knows how to achieve her goals...

Final year student Sabrina James has mapped out her entire future: she will graduate from college, ace Harvard Law School, and land a well-paying job at a top law firm. Her plan to escape her embarrassing past certainly does not include a handsome hockey player who believes in love at first sight. She is willing to give only one night of hot passion and unexpected tenderness to John Tucker, but sometimes one night is enough to change your whole life.

But the game just got a lot more complicated. Tucker believes that playing as a team is just as important as being a star. On the ice, he doesn't mind staying out of the spotlight, but when it comes time to be a dad at twenty-two, he refuses to stay on the bench. And he doesn't mind that the mother of his child is beautiful, smart, and always keeps him on his toes. The problem is Sabrina's heart remains well locked up, and the fiery brunette is too stubborn to accept his help. If he wants to be with the woman of his dreams, he will have to convince her that sometimes you need help to achieve your goals.

The fourth book in the bestselling Off-Campus series featuring hockey players and the girls who will make them swoon.

Read an excerpt

The clock in the narrow hallway tells me I have fifty-two minutes to make a sixty-eight-minute trip if I want to arrive on time to the party. I search my bag again, but my keys are not there. I check various spots once more. On the nightstand? No. In the bathroom? I looked there a little while ago. In the kitchen? Maybe.

I'm about to turn that way when I hear a metallic jingle behind me. "Are these what you're looking for?" A wave of contempt tightens around my throat as I turn and enter a living room so small that the five ancient pieces of furniture – two tables, an armchair, a sofa, and a chair – are squeezed together like sardines in a can. The fleshy mass sprawled on the sofa shakes my keys in the air. I sigh angrily, and he smiles while pushing the keys under his greasy tracksuit.

"Come and get them!" Filled with despair, I run my hand over my perfectly straightened hair before approaching my stepfather. "Give me the keys," I demand. Ray looks at me with a lascivious gaze. "Damn, you’re on fire tonight. You’ve turned into a very hot baby, Rina. We should hang out sometime, just the two of us…" I ignore the thick hand that ends up on his crotch. I've never seen a man so desperately want to touch his own thing. He makes Homer Simpson from the famous cartoon family look like a gentleman.

"We’re never going to find anything, just the two of us! So don’t look at me like that and don’t call me Rina." Ray is the only person who calls me that, and I hate it. "Give me my keys now." "I told you to come and get them." Gritting my teeth, I slip my hand under his butt and search for my keys. Ray groans and writhes like the disgusting bastard he is until my hand touches something metallic. I pull out the keys and turn back toward the door.

    Favorite quote
    “Because I will ruin you for all future men. I apologize in advance.” - John Tucker

    Sabrina is a dynamic girl with goals in her life. She has planned everything out and is faithfully following the plan that will change her life for the better.
    With her schedule filled with studies and work, she has no time for romance, but Tucker comes to prove to her that when there’s a will, there’s a way.
    Persistent and patient, he enters her life to turn everything upside down until they share a common... goal...

    This is my least favorite in the series so far, although I found the main twist - which I won’t mention to avoid spoilers - very interesting.
    I liked both main characters as Sabrina is very dynamic and Tucker is a golden retriever boy, but I found their chemistry a bit weak.
    The stepfather subplot made me feel very uncomfortable, and I generally believe that many things in this book should have gone differently, but...
    Also, at times I felt there was some fluff that didn’t contribute to the plot, while there were moments that needed more development to give our story that extra something.

    However, it’s Elle Kennedy, and the woman knows the secret to writing in a way that relaxes you, so the scenes with humor and delightful lines are not lacking. The Off Campus crew appears in several scenes, providing moments that stick in your mind, while the ending of this book is sweet and beautiful.

    I will never regret reading this series, even if this book disappointed me compared to the previous ones. I consider the series one of the best in its genre.

    I recommend it if you enjoy good humor in books, if you want something to relax and get out of a reading slump, and I definitely recommend it if you’re looking for college vibes.
