What started out as a battle for dominance changed when I realized my heart was on the line.

Arrogant. Self-centered. Obnoxious. Let’s not forget ridiculously hot! I knew this guy would be trouble with a capital T. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see that the famous calligrapher is confident in his own skin and my total opposite. Nathan Price…

My summer in Colorado is focused on work and music. There’s no room to second-guess my safe choices because of his sweet talk. Thank goodness my favorite Guitar Hero is here to protect me and I gladly reciprocate. Nathan believes that I belong to another and offers his friendship, but the hunger in his eyes tells a different story. When we run into each other again, the playboy proves to be caring, patient, and understanding. My issues don’t faze him. His obsessions don’t scare me off. Am I seriously ready to risk everything in the name of attraction? Oh boy!


Oh Boy! is part of The All-American Boy series, a collection of interconnected stories written by various authors. Every story can be read as a standalone.

The addition starts with the book cover….yeah…yeah…yeah don’t judge a book by its cover they say ….well we all do it and this one here it is the scratch to your itch or better yet the filling to your oreos! Within the first chapters you get the panoramic view of whom you’re dealing with! Sally is intelligent, relationship are a no..no for her since she has been hurt before trusting her friend and meeting an extremely confident man has her second guessing her decision. Nathan sexy as all get out confident and meeting a very amazing girl but realizing he has to go a little slower than usually with her. It seems though after being paired in a class they start to get to know each other shifting their view of each other and realizing there is more there or more developing than just friendship. But will she overcome her issues, will Nathan continue to be patient with her, and can they find happiness together?

4.5 Stars. Fascinating story.

I really enjoyed this fascinating story about two characters overcoming their pasts and finding unconditional love. Sally’s journey into becoming a whole, assertive, confident woman was inspiring and beautiful. At times, I found the dialogue and inner monologue difficult to follow, but overall a very special story.

This story is part of a multi-author series called "All American Boy". They are stand alone reads with connected characters. The series is set in Bear Creek, Colorado with a music festival, summer fun and music. This is a fairly quick read that is not to short. This is the story of Nathan and Sally. Sally struggles to overcome what has happened in her past. I love how Nathan has patience and understanding with her. Such a good story from beginning to end.

Nathan and Sally are secondary characters in Hope’s paranormal series. They’re already an item before the series starts and fairly private to boot, so their backstory is a mystery. Enter Oh Boy!, a contemporary MF read.

Sally has been burned in the past and only trusts one man: Rupert. Nathan and Sally are paired in a Krav Maga class, and their relationship slowly grows from there. I say slowly because Sally requires a slow pace and Nathan respects that. That doesn’t mean that there aren’t some hot scenes—there are—but Sally’s comfort and consent take priority for Nathan, which is entirely appropriate for their characters and the storyline.

Eventually, both blossom—Nathan’s art and happiness and Sally’s confidence—though not without a few challenges. Nathan can seem cocky and self-centered in the other series (and “in public”), but you see a softer, more caring side of him in this book.

This is a fast, satisfying read that stands alone but has some minor foreshadowing and references to the series. It is not paranormal and does not require any prerequisite reading. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in discovering an up-and-coming author with a unique style. The story may be in the shorter side, but it has plenty of heat and heart.

Sometimes you just have to take a calculated chance

Oh Boy! by Hope Irving is part of the multi-author All American Boy series. This is the first book I have read by this author so I was not sure what to expect. But as I have read several other books in this series and the book description piqued my interest I decided to grab a copy. I am glad that I did as I did enjoy this story about Nathan and Sally. The story-line is an easy read but very engaging. I also like the characters and how they first meet and then get to know each other. I did find a few things confusing at times but I just went where the author took the reader.

I received a copy of this book and am leaving my honest review. My opinions are all my own.

If life were perfect, you would have a Nathan and Rupert all in one. If you could roll all their attributes together, sigh, I don't think you would walk out the door. Nathan's patience and understanding that Sally needed space and acceptance was warming to the heart. Her struggles to overcome her past made this story emotionally connecting.

I read and reviewed a copy of this book.

Nathan and Sally storyline is sweet, he thinks he's all that but underneath he is caring and patient. Sally is conflicted and wants to concentrate on herself even if this is her time. This was an easy read with great characters.

Sally has been burned in her past. She doesn't trust. She and Nathan are paired in a Krav Maga class. There they begin a friendship slowly. They slowly begin to grow individually with Nathan's art and Sallys' confidence. This was a quick read, overall a good story.

I don't read lots of m/f romance these days, but this one sounded interesting and I was not disappointed. Sally is a strong character and her confidence develops nicely in this story as does her trust of Nathan. Nathan is a great character who never pushes or overpowers.

Ms. Irving painted a sexy, sweet picture with Nathan & Sally's story. The characters were perfect together. Their chemistry sparked and sizzled right off the pages. The writing style is different and kind of confusing, took me a bit to get into the story, otherwise, good story with a sweet HEA.

Oh Boy!
(All American Boy)
By Hope Irving

I’ve been reading the All American Boy series over the past few weeks and a week or so ago, I read Oh Boy!

Nathan and Sally’s story was an interesting read. Both characters holding back things and yet eventually trusting each other.

It’s a quick summer afternoon read with interesting characters that keep you flipping pages!

This is the 1st book I've read written by Hope Irving; I can’t wait to read more of her books.

This is part of the All American Boy Series; it is a stand-alone book. The story is about Sally & Nathan.

OH BOY! (The All-American Boy series) ✣
It's 𝐋𝐈𝐕𝐄 and you can read it FREE on KU or only .99c!

OH BOY! teaserNathan Price is one of my most iconic characters. The talented and cocky calligrapher is the main character in OH BOY! , a contemporary romance (MF).

It's an enemies-to-friends-to-lovers / hurt-comfort story focused on Nathan Price and Sally Mitchell. If you've read my paranormal/UF series, you've already met them as a couple and know that Nathan is quite a lot to handle.

OH BOY! takes place right before the events from The Black Angel Book Legend series. There's no paranormal elements in OH BOY!

Both can be read as standalone, but the series will give show you what happens to Nathan and Sally in the future.

OH BOY! is part of The All-American Boy Series, a collection of interconnected standalone stories by various authors.

Here's a glimpse of CHAPTER 1 - THE WORLD I KNOW
SALLY

Air rushes from my windpipe, and I freeze for a nanosecond. This isn’t how it was supposed to go; I’ve been taught better. Somehow, my brain disconnected from my body. The guy’s foot aims for my ankle. His self-assured gestures underline his experience, and I hate that as much as my sluggish reaction. Jumping backward, I dodge his skillful attack. Close call.
Why does my throat constrict then? Glancing behind me, beads of sweat tickle my forehead as I realize that I’m cornered against a wall, making bile rise into my mouth. For some reason, it feels like déjà vu, although I’ve never been in this exact situation. Yet, it’s reminiscent of how powerless I once was.
Not anymore!

My first book by this author. I found the characters interesting and although both have a past, I didn't feel like I was missing any information about them. The story flowed smoothly and when there were breaks in time, it was covered in inner dialogue. This is a novella length book so was a decently quick read.

not really a fan of this one

It was just meh for me….. I don’t think the characters were developed enough. Back stories weren’t very well thought out or explained very well when they came to life..
