Hook 'em Hard

By Cathryn Fox
Hook 'em Hard by Cathryn Fox digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Maeve Carter, the Boston Bucks' team physiotherapist, is the definition of beautiful. As a former model, her stunning looks have defined her—just ask the paparazzi or the stalker who made her life miserable.

 

But I see more. Want more. And she can never know that.

 

You see, she's my oldest teammate's daughter, and I can't touch that with a ten-foot hockey stick. Until a single mistake puts her in my bed, turning everything upside down.

 

You know what they say about the best laid plans—pun intended.

 

I should walk away. I need to walk away. Except now that I have her where I've always wanted her, I'm hooked…hard.

 

But then we have to fake a relationship to appease my meddling mother. Only problem is, I don't want to fake it anymore.

 

What do you think I should do about that?

““Hook ‘em Hard” by Cathryn Fox is the sixth and final book in the Bang Brothers Hockey series, and it’s Tanner Bang and Maeve Carter’s story. Tanner and Maeve both work for the Boston Bucks: he is one of their players, and she is the team’s physiotherapist. Tanner has been attracted to Maeve since the moment he met her, but it just wasn’t the right time for either one of them, and that’s on top of the fact that they work together. I thought Tanner and Maeve’s relationship was really well written. Maeve had been through a lot, and I loved how supportive Tanner was of her trauma. They had a lot of obstacles in their way, but I really felt as though Tanner and Maeve were meant to be together. I would recommend to fans of workplace romance and/or the fake dating trope!”
“Tanner Bang - the last sibling to fall This is the final installment in the multiple author written series Bang Brothers, and what a wonderful conclusion to this highly enjoyable and entertaining series. HOOK 'em HARD by Cathryn Fox was an emotional read, with humour, spice, and a touch of suspense. It's time to meet Tanner Bang, the youngest and final single Bang sibling, and Maeve Carter, ex model and physiotherapist for the Boston Bucks. Tabber and Maeve met at a Bucks training camp when he required work on his injured shoulder. They struck up a friendship, and while there was an instant attraction and chemistry neither were looking for any type of relationship. Tanner's sole focus was on his hockey and Maeve was fearful of her past being repeated. A year passes and Tanner finds he is still attracted to Maeve, but being his teammates' sister, he knows she is off limits. Maeve was attacked in her past and still wears both emotional and physical scars, she still finds it hard to trust people outside of her inner circle, yet she is drawn to Tanner. Shared stares across the bar and a missent text led to Tanner and Maeve unexpectedly in the same room. After a few drinks and a loss of inhibitions, Tanner and Maeve share some heated sexiness and can no longer hide the feelings they have for each other. So begins a secret relationship. Tanner and Maeve are amazing together, the banter, the care they have for each other, and their spice was way off the charts. Their time together is full of fun and laughter, but something is bothering Maeve. She feels as though she's being watched and keeps seeing men lurking in the shadows, is her past coming back to haunt her or something more sinister happening? HOOK 'em HARD was a fabulous read. Tanner and Maeve were perfect for each other. Tanner was delicious, the way he cared for Maeve, his possessiveness, and the constant encouragement he gave her. For everything Maeve had experienced in her past she was a strong woman who wanted to live her best life. While Mama Bang doesn't grace many pages, her presence is still felt. I loved Tanner's teammates and the way their wives and girlfriends made Maeve feel a part of their group. This book made me laugh, squirm in my seat, and wonder who was lurking in the shadows, it had all my emotions on high alert. It was a wonderful conclusion to this series. If you haven't had the chance to start reading about the Bang siblings, I highly recommend doing so. Read and Reviewed for Reading Is our Satisfaction ✨✨✨✨✨ FIVE BANG STARS ✨✨✨✨✨”
