Moo U Hockey Series Book 1: Blindsided by Victoria Denault

Blindsided (Moo U #1)
Moo U Hockey Book 1

What if Romeo wore hockey skates, and Juliet was raised on a farm next door?

As a life-long Vermonter, there are three beliefs I’ve always held true:
1. Our family farm is everything
2. Hockey is a close second
3. The Todds next door are our sworn enemies

But this season will test everything I stand for.

I have an illicit side job that could cost me my hockey scholarship. And now Maggie Todd knows my secret. She’s waiting for the right moment to use it against me. But every time I face off against her, I learn things I shouldn’t want to know. Like how deeply her competitive streak runs, and how sexy that is. And how easy it is to make her blush… everywhere.

An Adler and a Todd cannot be lovers. Breaking that rule is like pulling a pin on a grenade--everything in my life could blow up. Can we surrender to these feelings… or will our families’ feud make us its next casualty?

My Review: 5/5 Stars

Such a great start to this new series set in the World of True North! I was super excited for this series. And it was kicked off with a great one. The Todd and Adler families have been fighting for well forever. The feud is legendary in their town but the strange part is...no one actually remembers what started the feud. And the conflicting grandfathers of each family refuse to talk about it. The feud has carried over to each generation. Maggie and Tate grew up knowing that had to hate one another. They even attended the same college but tend to ignore one another. That is until a situation leaves them with no choice but to talk. The glares and smack talk are strong and deals are struck to work together despite the feud. But it isn't long until the two of them realize that the so called hate between may not actually exist. And that there is actually a strong attraction and connection between the two of them. One that once they give in to there is no turning back. So how do this modern day Romeo and Juliet find their happily ever after? Well, it isn't that is for sure. I loved this story! I couldn't put it down. Maggie and Tate were great characters and their chemistry was just fantastic. The book had so many twists and turns to keep you on your toes. Plenty of humor and a great romance. The story had it all. And I'm so looking forward to the rest of the series!

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
