Score

by Jessica Ashe

She thinks I betrayed her. If only she knew the truth.

Jennifer

Jaxon broke my heart before we'd even been on our first date. Now he's a famous soccer player in England, and it’s my job to convince him to come back to America.

Except I don’t want him to come home. I don’t want him anywhere near me. Not after what he did to me four years ago.

Jaxon

Jenny still hates me. I can't blame her. I hate myself sometimes for what I did to her.

After four painful years apart, Jenny's back in my life and this time things are going to be different. This time I'm not letting her go without a fight.

First, just believing the h could be admitted, much less attend Harvard, hours of uncontrollable laughter right there...but a "Social Studies" major from Harvard? If you don't see the issue there, then this is the book for you.

And if you're referring to it as Harvard "University" ~ I guaran-fucking-tee you're not a fucking graduate.

This was so ridiculous.

The secret Jaxon was hiding. I can't even start with the implausibly of his issue and career. He'd never have kept that shit hidden.

And the whole bit with the h's professor...I call bullshit. At that level of academia, if she'd communicated her issue to the professor's immediate supervisors and departmental heads, her work would have been reviewed regardless of what happened to the professor and her accusation. If for no other reason than she apparently had a 4.0 (((at Harvard)))...yeah, don't get me started on that again.

And the identity of the professor and the H's reaction...I almost DNF'd right there.

The writing... #icanteven

And 3 yrs to complete a PhD from Wharton...nearly as funny as her going to Harvard.

No OW after the H/h reunite.
^^^2 stars for that alone^^^

I don't have anything positive to say about this book. I found it boring and laborious so the least said the better.

Книгата привлече вниманието ми още от първите страници. Не е такава, която да прочетеш и след няколко дни да забравиш. В нея има и любов и драма и над какво да се замислиш. С удоволствие бих чела книгите на Джесика Еш и на родния си език.

Surprising

Score has two embedded novels: Foster and Revenge. I would only give Score 3 stars, but the other two are solid 4 star books...really enjoyed them.

Jennifer heart was broken by Jaxon years earlier. She had caught him kissing her best friend, after standing her up on a date. Yea they were step siblings. But not enough for the ick factor. She went on to university and finally graduated. Now her boss wants him on his team. Oh yea he is a soccer champ. She wants nothing to do with him. Secrets had been kept from her since then. Will he finally tell her all? Jessica Ashe kept me interested by not revealing all till the last bit. There are three more stories after that were just as good.

I loved the book. Jennifer is a strong woman who has emotional scars from the past that she won't let control her. Jaxon is a famous soccer player hiding his own demons. They are step-siblings that fell in love. The story takes you through the heartache and pain that will eventually lead to an amazing HEA. The writing is good and the character development was spot on. Jessica Ashe is becoming one of my favorites in this genre.

Steamy, sexy, sometimes tragic, love story!

I realize I'm late to this step-sibling genre, but I've read a few that I've enjoyed. This is one of them. Not to give too much of the plot away but Jaxon's illness was tastefully written without going into too much detail. It made his and Jennifer's struggle to be together that much more worthwhile.

I would give this book a 3.5* as I was enjoying it but I'm not really sure why but I just lost interest in it and ended up skimming reading the end.

It's a step brother story with a second chance romance.

[Vanessa Lawford · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was my first book from Jessica Ashe that I read and I loved it.
Anything that Jessica Ashe writes I will read. She has a way of writing a book that is different everytime and just sucks you in until you finished it.

Score for beating cancer

From start to finish is full of surprises. Never a a dull moment so full of love and second chances.

[Nessa]

Honestly I don't know what to rate this book and I only had it half way because it made me cringe every second. The whole plot was rather dumb and I just can't bear to read till the end.
