Jenna Riley has lived sports her entire life. Her brothers are both huge sports stars and her family owns Riley’s Sports Bar in St. Louis. After her father’s heart attack Jenna took over running Riley’s out of duty but she’s not content for this to be her permanent position. The only thing Jenna is sure about is the fact that she will never fall for a sports guy. No one told that to Ty Anderson.

NHL star Ty Anderson is at the top of his game ready to take his team to the playoffs. Lately, there is this distraction in the form of one sexy bartender that is keeping him up at night. Jenna refuses his advances left and right because of her no dating sports starts rule but Ty never gives up on what he wants.

Jenna and Ty begin a torrid love affair that burns up the pages of Taking A Shot. However, neither is certain they are ready for forever but they are both certain that one night together is not nearly enough. The question is, are Jenna and Ty ready to take a shot at love? Can they both change their preconceptions about love and life to discover that some things are worth fighting for?

Jenna and Ty melt the ice in Taking A Shot! This couple’s attraction is simply sizzling. I could not get enough of Jenna’s stubborn and forthright attitude. Granted she may not be right all the time but who is. Her wit and hot and heavy banter with Ty is irresistible. What I really like about Jenna is that she finds herself in a position a lot of people slip into when they think they have to do a certain thing in life, too afraid to take a shot at what they really want. Ty is the perfect man to fight for Jenna’s heart and show her that dreams can come true at any time in life if you’re willing to fight for them.

Ty with his sexy bod and beautiful heart make Taking A Shot a striking read! I just love the hockey scenes in Taking A Shot they are so realistic and having me itching to go to a game. I adore Ty’s relentless pursuit of Jenna! Be prepared there is one scene that is off the charts hot you may melt.

Taking A Shot also gives us some girl time and I love it. Jenna’s relationship with her brother’s wives is great. I love the scenes where Jenna, Tara, and Liz are gabbing about their men and it’s always great to get time with the extended Riley family.

Jaci Burton continues her excellent Play-by-Play series with Taking A Shot a fervent romance with a propensity to make you swoon!
