RELEASE BLITZ - CAN'T BLOCK MY LOVE by XAVIER NEAL

Can't Block My Love, an all-new sports romance by Xavier Neal is NOW LIVE!



From bestselling romance author Xavier Neal comes an all-new, rom-com sports romance featuring a gorgeous goalie who can block any shot — except Cupid's...

Once upon a time, the Vlasta Vipers hockey team was so incredible — on and off the ice — they were almost mythical.

Every other university wanted their team to be them.

Every chick who crossed their paths wanted to bang them.

Now?

Their clout on the ice is questionable.

Their competition cutthroat.

Their beds...

Well, there will always be puck bunnies ready to keep them warm. After all, no matter how well they do or don't do, they are the university's most important athletes.

However, when Remington Ronald Rutledge the 3rd, lands himself on the new head coach's bad side, which threatens his chances of playing for the season, he finds himself striking an unusual deal with a blast from his past he can barely remember.

Did she always wear these glasses?

Was her hair always this curly?

Has she always had a smile that makes him wanna smile?

What happens when the bad boy who makes all the rules is forced to play by someone else's?

Can this good-looking goalie let love score, or will blocking it be the biggest mistake of his life?

I have to start off by saying it was the blurb and the hockey that drew me to this book because Xavier Neal is a new author to me but now I’m left wondering what I haven’t read any previous books by this very talented author and as soon as time permits I will certainly be checking previous books out.
This book will appeal to lovers of sports romance as well as lovers of romance it’s a entertaining love story with just the right amount of humour added to the mix.
Rem is the goalie for the Vlasta Vipers and he is a character that is hard to like when you first meet him, he has made some bad choices and is irresponsible but the new coach is having none of it and tells him straight you need to earn your place on my team and that means getting out in the community as well as playing well. Ren is told to volunteer at the local animal shelter and that’s where he meets an old childhood friend Poppy or Hottie as he likes to call her.
Poppy is just the person to get Rem back on the straight and narrow but will Rem be ready to take a chance or will he throw it all away......
This is a well written entertaining read that captivated me, Rem is one of those characters we love to hate and it’s only as the story goes on that Poppie draws out the real man and that’s the one I’m sure like me you will fall big time for. This book ticks all the boxes, it will make you laugh it will make you sigh and at times you may well be screaming at your e-reader. Looking forward to more from Xavier Neal and the Hockey Gods.
 



Xavier Neal is a new author to me and I have no idea why that is. So when the opportunity to read and review book one in a new series came up, I jumped at the chance.

Remington Ronald Rutledge III, (Rem) is a goalie for the the Vlasta Vipers hockey team and lands himself in trouble he needs to do something to sort it out before it is too late. That’s when an old childhood friend Poppy (or Hootie as Rem calls her) comes along to help him.

Much to his shock, Rem is drawn to Hootie and cannot get her out of his mind. There were times that Rem seem a bit too arrogant to be likeable but thanks to Hootie, who drew out another side to Rem, it made it easier to like him and relate to them both. The banter between Rem and Hootie was great and I found myself laughing at times as their relationship developed.

The big question is will Rem take a chance on love with Hootie or will he throw it all away? Once click and find out.




If you love a sweet, fun to read hockey romance then Can’t Block My Love will be a story you will want to read!
I like the two college age main characters. They have good dialogue and are fun together as they challenge and balance each other out. The storyline is enjoyable and engaging as they deal with the pressures they have to face between school for both Poppy and Ren, work for Poppy and sports for Ren. Now they have the added challenges of a new relationship.
I love Ren’s inner dialogue with himself as he battled his public persona, Rutledge, with the private one he wanted to share with only Poppy, Ren. The more time he spends with Poppy the more Ren seems to be on the winning side and this is the side that is willing to wait patiently for her to take their relationship to the next level. She is bringing out feelings in him he has never had and he doesn’t know what to make of them. He is willing to share his secrets with her and in turn Poppy is sharing and opening up to him. What they don’t realize is that they are both finding something in each other that they have always needed and have never been able to find anywhere else. It’s called acceptance to be who they truly are with all of their flaws, secrets and dreams. But, will Ren throw all of this away?
