Summary

"Welcome to Conti's. I'm Lia and I'll nguhhhhhhhhhhhhh."

I froze. Directly facing me was Olympic swimmer, Jay Morningstar . . . and I just made an idiot of myself. The rest of the table looked up to see me standing there with my mouth practically gaping. 

His coach, who I recognized from TV interviews, and even two other swimmers from the Olympic team were there. They didn't say anything, they didn't even blink.

"Uh ... I mean ..."

I couldn't even put together my words and Jay Morningstar was just staring at me with that Wheaties box smile and those icy blue eyes. What was I supposed to say? Sorry I just made a weird noise, it's just that I have a poster of you on my wall where you are wearing nothing more than your gold medals, a smile, and a pair of man panties?

Sweet romance in a small Texas town

This is a sweet story about young love between a small town girl and a celebrity, mistakenly bad-boy, Olympic swimmer. It has all the angst, challenges and sweetness of new found love. The protagonists are unsure as they traverse the complexities of instant attraction. Added to that, Rosalia has her super protective Sicilian family and Jay has his celebrity status (and all the drama, including a possessive ex-girlfriend, that involves) to contend with. Both provide plenty of obstacles but love rises to the occasion.

I enjoyed the humour, the drama and the emotional angst involved in this story. I loved how natural and relatable Rosalia is. And I especially liked how Rosalia's normal life coupled with her quirky personality and realistic insecurities are exactly what Jay appreciates about her.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
