Language of Love by V. L. Locey is such a great sexy romance! Take one hot black woman who can't hear and an ever hotter Russian hockey player = hat trick for romance readers everywhere! I've never read anything by Locey before and while she could've taken the snarky approach to the romance, she didn't. Fully fleshed out characters with real problems fall in love... what could be better? I ahev to read the rest of the series now. Highly recommend!

I got sucked in on the first book and have read each one in order. I love seeing characters from earlier books reappear and be part of the story. The author continues each H/h story in each book, but does it so adeptly, so skillfully that it doesn't detract from the main her and heroine. When the story opened, I wasn't too happy with Petro and wasn't sure that having Margarite fall for him was a good thing. But as the story continued, the author revealed him to be a much deeper person than I thought he was. And his backstory, well, I won't give it away. Melted my heart. The interaction between Margarite and her mother is warm, sharp and wonderful. V. L. Locey writes great dialogue.
I've also learned a lot about ice hockey from this series. The author including information about the sport and scenes from the sport keep the story real and grounded and hold my interest.
This story did not disappoint. Margarite and Petro had me eating out of their hands. And Olaf! Well, supporting characters don't get better than that. I'm looking forward to the next book so I can find out what happens to Viviana and Alain. I've got my fingers crossed for them. If you like sports romance, well-written books with great twists, then you'll love this series. I do.

So far, Language of Love was the most disconcerting book of the To Love a Wildcat series. Why, pray tell, would I give 5 stars to a book that was confusing to read at times? Because it was meant to be discombobulating. Language of Love is told from Margarite’s point of view, which is that of a deaf woman falling in love with a Russian man who speaks VERY limited English. I don’t think I’ve ever fully appreciated just how much I rely upon my sense of hearing as I did while reading this book. While this is not the first book I’ve read in which one of the main characters was deaf, Ms. Locey created such a “real” character in Margarite that I could feel her frustration when certain events caused her to lament her deafness. Margarite’s strength of character is awe inspiring. Her determination to stand by Petro, despite her mother’s objections and in the face of his personal demons, demonstrated how deep her love for him ran and just how strong her convictions were.
I will happily admit that I, too, misjudged Petro and his playboy ways. I feared that Margarite was setting herself up to have her heart broken when (not if) he cheated on her. And while her heart does get bruised, it’s due to the typical growing pains of two people becoming a couple and Petro having to learn that he could and should lean on her when he needed help. While we only experience the story from Margarite’s point of view and her inability to hear Petro’s conversations with his grandmother and his teammates (even in his limited English) limits how much we know of what is going on, his behavior toward hear screams of adoration and, eventually, love as well. Accommodating Margarite’s deafness seems to come naturally to Petro, such as when he puts her hand on his guitar so that she can feel the vibrations as he plays; it’s as if he wants to make sure she’s tuned into him so that she knows he wants her to be a part of what’s going on at the time. His attempts to learn English and ASL also illustrated his intentions toward Margarite. That the two had seriously hot sex was an absolute bonus.
As usual, I felt the end of Language of Love arrived much too quickly, but Ms. Locey does a wonderful job of weaving the books together in such a way that while they can be read as standalones, those readers who have been following the series can catch up with old friends. So I take comfort in knowing that I will get to see how Margarite and Petro’s relationship continues to develop in future installments of the series, which also gives me hope in keeping up on Oscar’s relationship. But then again, if the coach and team owner can have a book, can’t we have one for the team’s physician as well? A girl can dream can’t she?
I received a complimentary copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.

I loved book 5 of this series but I do admit, that I am a lil sad too. With this being book 5, that means that we are only 1 book away from the series ending and that makes me want to cry. I have grown attached to all the characters in this series and will miss them. I did however here a rumor of a new womens hockey team where some of these characters will be showing up so all is not lost. Let's just hope those rumors are true.
Anyway, sorry about that rant and back to this the review on this one. If you didn't catch what I said earlier, it's that I loved this book! I wasn't sure how it was going to go to be honest but it ended up being one of my favorites in the series. I so loved Petro in this. Margarite is such a sweet young woman and has been through so much. I loved how she handled what life had thrown at her and she handled it with style and grace...but then, look at her mother so it is to be expected. Now Petro, wow did he have to do a major reversal. He was a drunk, horn dog that couldn't keep it in his pants when anyone with boobs walked in. Who could blame Isabella for being against Margarite and Petro's relationship. But boy was she wrong. Margarite was exactly what Petro needed to grow up and take responsibility for his actions.
I do admit though, I thought the falling in love happened a wee bit fast for these two, but who am I to decide if it's possible or not. Was it well written? Yes! Was it believable? Yea, pretty much (because there were parts that we did not see in book 4 where they were living together so who knows what happened then). As for the dialogue, it was done really well. There were a few minor spots where it was confusing (not dialogue per se) but when Margarite was in the bedroom and woke up with Petro in the other room and she knew he was on the phone. It was written almost as if she could "hear" him. I'm not sure if she really could have "felt" the vibrations of his voice through the wall. Other than that, I think there was only 1 other spot that was confusing but I think it was later explained. Who knows. I liked the story such much, I've forgiven it. :)
The description to details where done well, the characters, I loved. Esp. loved Olaf. She is a hoot and a half. It was said that she used to coach womens hockey, so maybe this is where the next series comes into play? Maybe she'll have something to do with it. Wishful thinking maybe on my part? Maybe that is where Coach Phillip ends up?
This is written as a single POV in 1st person. This is book 5 of the series but can be read as a stand alone.
So anyway.....
Would I recommend this book? Uhhh Yea!!!
Would I read more from this author? Yep!! Starting 6 next which is bitter sweet since I love the series and don't want to see it end.

I have fallen in love with the Wildcats series, and Language of Love is another great addition. After Petro was introduced in book four, Reality Check, I couldn’t wait to read his and Margarite’s story. Margarite is the beautiful, deaf daughter of the Wildcats team owner and Petro is the new addition to the team. Margarite has gone through so much in her young life with her disability but the language barrier-her lip reading and ASL and his limited English and fluent Russian, his horn-dog reputation, and Petro’s drinking is proving to be her biggest struggle. Together, they find they have an instant, deep friendship and undeniable chemistry. When they open their hearts to the love they feel, they are unstoppable. Petro wants to be the best man he can be for Margarite, and she wants to be the one who can help him turn his life around and change everyone’s opinion of him. The devotion they have for one another made me completely forget about his reputation and root for them all the way. We learn about Petro and his past and it brings light to his struggles and why he has coped with things the way he has. There is so much growth in Petro in this book you can’t help but love the big lug. I loved Margarite! Talk about a great heroine! Her struggle with getting a cochlear implant so she could hear Petro’s voice, his whispers of love vs being a role model and wanting to show the children with hearing impairments that you can be successful and have a full life was inspiring. One of my favorite parts of the book was when Petro was strumming his guitar and Margarite was in her head struggling with not being able to her him sing and play and he looked at her almost as if reading her thoughts and grabbed her hand and placed it on the guitar so she could enjoy the music with him. **swoon** There is so much I could say about this book. It’s definitely one of my favorites in the series. There are real life struggles these two go through, it just felt like there was true meaning in this book. Makes me look at the things I take for granted, opens my eyes to the struggle some people face with alcohol. Oh, but don’t get me wrong, there are some hilarious moments in here also – oh my, do I love Olaf! This is a great series and one you should definitely read! Time to dive into Final Shifts, book six!

I stumbled upon Language of Love just when I was feeling homesick for my hometown of Philadelphia. I love hockey--I've been a Philadelphia Flyers fan since I was a kid--so discovering the To Love a Wildcat series was a stroke of luck. It's set in Philadelphia and revolves around the fictional hockey team, the Philadelphia Wildcats.
Language of Love chronicles what happens when Marguerite, the deaf daughter of the team's owner, falls in love with Petro, the latest addition to the team whose limited grasp of English and fiery temperament have put him at odds with the team. Their physical attraction to one another is white-hot--this is one sexy book--and sex becomes one of the ways Marguerite and Petro communicate with other another. As the summer progresses, we get an interesting view into their relationship and the problems these two face--Petro's drinking problem, Marguerite's trying to figure out if she should get a cochlear implant so that she could hear his voice or if she should say no to it in order to be a role model for the deaf children she teaches--someone who can show them they can live in a hearing world without feeling like they do not belong--and of course there is relationship drama thanks to disapproving friends and family.
The twists in Marguerite and Petro's love story give Language of Love a great edge. It's not often one gets a chance to read a romance featuring a deaf heroine and this novel gives great insight into what it's like to be deaf in a hearing world, how one navigates communicating and dealing with societal pressure. And of course having a sexy Russian hockey player like Petro is a definite bonus.
Though this was book 5, it was the first book I read in the series and was able to follow the storyline without any problems. Going to delve into more books in the To Love a Wildcat series. Highly recommended!

Language of Love (To Love a Wildcat #5) by V.L. Locey Margarite Lancourt, daughter of Wildcat’s team owner Isabelle Lancourt, life was easier before she became involved with the newest member of the Wildcats, Petro Shevenko.
After reading Reality Check (To Love a Wildcat #4) I couldn’t wait to read this book to find out what happened between Margarite and Petro. I was not disappointed.
I enjoyed reading Margarite perspective on things. Being an only child and hearing impaired her mother is way over protective of her. Margarite is an amazing character. I thought it was admirable of her accepting the way she was born and not having surgery for her hearing in order to be a role model for kids with hearing disabilities. Although I think, she could still be a good role model and teacher, even if she someday decides to go ahead with the surgery. However, I love that she thinks she is fine with the way she is and not broken. That is a healthy attitude that I admire.
I also thought it was commendable of her to stick by Petro and help him with his alcoholism. Many people would not have stuck by him. Heck most people don’t even like him. Petro has had a difficult life. I’m glad he is given an opportunity for a better one and has people to help support him.
Language of Love is a well done novel. It has an interesting and believable plot. It includes past characters, making the story more endearing. It’s also nice to know that we will most likely be snippets of Margarite and Petro down the line.

Petro Shevenko, just saying the name makes me sigh and think of a sexy Russian hunk who can melt the panties off a girl with just one look. Margarite Lancourt, when you hear this name you thing of a spoiled rich princess who is used to getting everything she wants. Petro is a sexy hot hunk but Margarite is not a stuck up princess. We were introduced to Petro in book 4 and he was not show in a positive light. In this book, we get to see what has made him the man he is, watch him struggle to be better, make mistakes and prove he loves Margarite. The attraction Margarite has for Petro strains her relationship with her mother and has her rethinking what she wants out of her life. Watching Margarite come to terms with Petros problems and accepting who she is and what she wants made for some interesting inner dialogue. There is nothing weak about Margarite Lancourt and just like her mother she is not afraid to go after what she wants. This was a well developed story and I love that Ms. Locey keeps her past characters active in each new addition to the wildcats journey. The language barrier between Perto and Margarite made for some interesting comments that made me smile and laugh. I also wondered if he knew more then what he let on and just liked her reactions to what he was saying. If you have not guessed, I love the wildcats and I look forward to seeing what comes next.

This is the fifth book of the series and it’s about Margarite and Petro. I like them as a couple although I wish Petro’s English was better as sometimes it was hard to follow. It’s tough for them to communicate with him Fluent in Russian and her fluent in ASL. She is able to read lips but only if it’s spoken in English. Margarite’s mother is still not happy about this relationship; I wouldn’t be either based on Petro’s history with girls in the past. However, I find myself rooting for them, she seems to be a good influence for him and they just seem like the perfect couple besides the language barrier. But Petro has cleaned his act up, will Margarite’s mother ever decide to give him a chance, after all, he does make her daughter happy. I wish there was more communication between Margarite and Petro in this story though, it was mostly her just telling a story of what was happening and very little communication. Ojaf, Petro’s grandmother is a funny lady, her English is much better than her grandson’s but she doesn’t know ASL. She seems to be good with his relationship with Margarite. But when Petro falls into his drinking state again, will it tear his relationship with the one he loves apart or will he be able to prove everyone wrong and stay clean? Find out if the couple will make or break it in this book.

Book 5 of the To Love a Wildcat series brings all our old friends back, and takes us on another journey with Petro and Margarite as the stars this time. There adventure is so different from all the rest, but yet very similar as they work to build their relationship. Margarite is torn between being the good daughter she's always been and following her heart. Petro is a world of difference from her, he's got attitude, issues, and then there's the language barriers.
V.L. Locey takes us on a roller coaster of emotion as we watch Margarite and Petro try to found that common ground to build a solid relationship on. There's a dance of should we, could we and there's doubts and second-guessing. There's hurt and love, laughter and tears. Such everyday emotions that help the reader connect to these characters.
The Wildcats as a whole have always jumped off the page and encompassed the reader, making them a part of the story. Book 5 is no different, I was more invested then ever as I watched the progression of previous relationships and rooted for Margarite and Petro to figure things out.
I look forward to seeing how V.L. Locey wraps things up for the Wildcats in book 6! Do yourself a favor and don't miss this series!

I really liked Margarite from the time she was introduced in the series. She's serious despite her youth and very capable, undeterred by her disability. I really love how Locey explores her struggle over her decision to get the cochlear implants. Petro is a man with demons. At first, I didn't like him at all and I was completely with Isabelle Lancourt that her daughter needs to stay away! But he grew on me a little...he still didn't seem much of the hero type though. Margarite definitely carried the story.
I've never read a book where the language barrier was so clearly a stumbling block for the hero and heroine. For me the fact that they couldn't understand each other made it difficult for me to understand how Margarite could become so involved.
I loved the "visits" from all the characters in the past books as well. The whole scene with all the ladies at lunch is just amazing...Overall a great addition to the To Love a Wildcat series.

Language of Love was a wonderful read. I love the Wildcat series and one of the things I love about it is the strong heroines, Margarite is different from the rest of the Wildcat heroines, because she is the daughter of another heroine, Isabelle Lancourt. I wasn't sure how I would like such a young heroine. Margarite is only 19, but I loved her. She is strong, mature,sure of herself and she makes the tough decisions that need to be made.
The camaraderie and support this group of women gives each other is wonderful to watch. It is uplifting and enlightening.
I adored Olaf, Petro's grandmother is hoot. I think SHE should get a story! Lol.
It was also very interesting to see how Petro and Margarite's love story played out. How they learned to communicate and how their love changed both their lives.
My only complaint, it ended too soon!

What a book!! My favorite character is Margarite. I love how open Margarite is with her feelings. She maybe young, but she knows what she wants. She wants Petro. She does not care that his english is not good. Add in Margarite is deaf, but she does not let that stop her. I can not wait for the next book so I can where these 2 lovers are at in their lives.
Petro's grandmother is too much. I love how she tells Margarite that if she gets pregnant, then she will marry Petro.
☆☆☆☆☆
I give this book 5 out of 5 stars.
Would I recommend this book? Yes! Author? Yes!
Would I read more from this author? Yes!
Happy Reading!

I was given a copy of this book to write an honest review for Cocktails and Books.
This is a sensual story about a hot, Russian hockey player. Petro Shevenko is the Philadelphia Wildcats newest acquisition and from the moment Petro meets Margarite, the owner’s daughter there is a sizzling chemistry between. The only problem is they have a difficult time communicating with each other because he doesn’t speak English and Margarite is deaf. This novella is a fun, sexy story.

I really love books where a lead character has a disability. Margarite is deaf but that has never stopped her from doing anything. When her mother brings over the really hot hockey player from Russia, the language barrier is not an issue for them. They use the international language we all know and that is love.
Petro had a scary past that threatens their relationship, but Margarite vows that if her disability didn't stop their love neither would his disease.

Each book in this series has drawn me in to the Wildcats organization deeper and deeper but this one really wrapped itself around my heart.
I can't wait for the next book and highly recommend the series.
