TRIPLE SCORE is Book 4 in Regina Kyle's "Art of
Seduction" series. Even though it's part of a series,
TRIPLE SCORE works as a standalone book. TRIPLE SCORE has
an unusual setting for a romance to bloom -- a physical
therapy complex. The baseball player and the ballerina
make a winning combination. Regina Kyle stretches out the
sexual tension in TRIPLE SCORE with hot results.
I like that the hero and heroine are both athletes and
have that common ground. I also like that Jace respects
Noelle as a fellow athlete. Regina Kyle does a great job
of giving the reader a window into the souls of the main
characters. Jace is more than just a baseball playing bad
boy. I enjoyed learning about Jace's struggles with his
dad. Regina Kyle makes Jace's dad neither a good guy nor
bad guy, but simply a flawed and realistic character.
Jace's relationship with his dad adds depth to Jace's
personality. Likewise, knowing more about how Noelle has
been burned by a former lover makes her more sympathetic
and real.
The teasing and flirting between Jace and Noelle
throughout TRIPLE SCORE makes this romance more
entertaining. Jace walks a line between being charming
and obnoxious at the very beginning. I like that Noelle
plays a little hard to get at first. The romance that
develops between Jace and Noelle is steamy and sweet. I
like how Jace plans romantic surprises for Noelle that
prove how much she means to him and how well he's gotten
to know her. The commentary from Noelle's sisters is
amusing and shows another aspect of Noelle. The ribbing
that Jace takes from his buddies when they show up is
another nice dose of humor. I also liked the mentoring
relationship that Jace develops with a young baseball
player at the rehab facility.
TRIPLE SCORE is a fun, sexy ride with lots of heart. The
friendships in TRIPLE score add humor and help define the
main characters. I enjoyed the satisfying epilogue as it
provides a nice follow-up on the characters. I wouldn't
mind reading about Jace's baseball buddies in future
books. I look forward to the next story by Regina Kyle.
Knowing the score…
Prima ballerina Noelle Nelson needs to recover from her
injury and return to the stage. She won't consider
failure…or be distracted by baseball's resident bad boy,
Jace Monroe. His tattoos, wicked smile and deliciously
athletic body might drive her crazy, but a media frenzy
is
the last thing this good girl needs.
Jace is sick with fear that his own injury will never
heal,
but he's not about to let anyone notice, especially the
gorgeous blonde dancer he loves to infuriate. He's
pushing
himself past his physical capacity, putting his future at
risk. Still, when it comes to making a play for Noelle,
Jace
is in scoring position—and he's not going to back down!
