The Deal (Off-Campus, 1)

New York Times bestseller and TikTok sensation Elle Kennedy brings you the first in the sexy Off-Campus series that everyone is talking about.

She's about to make a deal with the college bad boy...

Hannah Wells has finally found someone who turns her on. But while she might be confident in every other area of her life, she's carting around a full set of baggage when it comes to sex and seduction. If she wants to get her crush's attention, she'll have to step out of her comfort zone and make him take notice...even if it means tutoring the annoying, childish, cocky captain of the hockey team in exchange for a pretend date.

...and it's going to be oh so good

All Garrett Graham has ever wanted is to play professional hockey after graduation, but his plummeting GPA is threatening everything he's worked so hard for. If helping a sarcastic brunette make another guy jealous will help him secure his position on the team, he's all for it. But when one unexpected kiss leads to the wildest sex of both their lives, it doesn't take long for Garrett to realize that pretend isn't going to cut it. Now he just has to convince Hannah that the man she wants looks a lot like him.

I'm clearly in my cute rom-com book phase. Hannah and Garrett were adorable together. I loved how they started off as reluctant acquaintances, then friends and let the feelings between each other grow instead of the instalove that happens in a lot of books. It felt very real that they both admitted to their physically attractive, but were off put by each others personality. I enjoyed Elle Kennedy's writing. It wasn't too angsty, the characters weren't too immature or whiney. Overall I really enjoyed reading thsi book.

I'm off to read Book 2 - The Mistake.

It was an amazing book, loved every single page and each page just wanted you to keep turning. The slow burn of the relationship is a masterstroke, allowing readers to feel the growing connection between the characters. Elle Kennedy doesn't shy away from addressing personal challenges and insecurities that the characters face. This adds a layer of depth to the narrative, making it more than just a lighthearted romance. This was a 10/10 in my eyes!
