When Bethany Howard meets international soccer star
Jenson Abbot at a bar one night she never expects it will change her life
forever. University classes and late nights spent studying fill her hours, but
Jenson is determined to show her what she's been missing. She thinks it's only
a one night stand, but Bethany is anything but a fling to Jenson. He's been
waiting for someone to make him feel the way she does, her sharp tongue and
delicious curves undoing him from the beginning.
Jenson is hellbent on proving he is the man for her,
the only man that can make her eyes light up when she laughs and her body sing
beneath his hands. But can Jenson convince Bethany that there's more to him
than meets the eye? Or will his flirty grin and dogged persistence put her off
men forever? Jenson is determined to find out, because he's got one last play
tucked in his pocket, The Panty Play.
Warning: Bending Bethany is a whirlwind week of syrupy
sweetness with the nerdy girl next door and the MVP soccer star she can't quite
shake. Be prepared to be wooed all over again!
Excerpt
I woke the next morning with
a faint pounding in the back of my head. Scrubbing at my face, I glanced down
to find myself twisted in the sheets. I sighed and stretched, feeling sore in a
wide, new array of places. As my fingers traced circles in the softness of the
fabric, the fog lifted and my less than moral actions from last night combusted
in my memory. I slowly turned to see the handsome stranger from last night soundly
asleep beside me. Well, at least I didn’t have rose-tinted glasses. The man was
definitely what my sister, Taylor, would call “fine.” He had a perfectly
chiseled face, muscles that were rock hard and well sculpted, and big hands.
And I knew their size matched up with another large member on his divine
body...
I tore the sheet off me and
sat up in bed, startled to find I was wearing nothing but my birthday suit.
Here I was in all my naked glory. I looked around for my clothing. To my
horror, I saw my dress was on the floor in multiple pieces. Jenson had
apparently shredded it. In a frantic panic, I found a large New England Red
Bulls jersey and tossed it over my head. I couldn’t wear just this jersey, even
though it was longer than that flimsy fabric I was wearing last night.
I needed to get out of there.
I quickly went to the bathroom to make sure I didn’t look like a morning after
nightmare. I found a new toothbrush tucked in a drawer.
I finished my teeth and ran a
brush through my hair, thinking it looked especially wild this morning. I
grabbed a lock and pulled it across my nose, taking a whiff and expecting to
find the scent of stale cigarette smoke.
Instead, I was hit with a
wave of heady arousal.
Notes of leather and spice
filled my nostrils. Ice-blue eyes. A reckless mop of dark hair.
Oh God.
“What did I do?” I squeaked
before tracing my lips with my fingertips, feeling slightly bruised from too
much kissing. I didn't think I'd had that much to drink, but apparently the
shots and the music and everything about him had gone to my head. Snapshots of
last night flooded me. I didn't do things like this, impersonal sex was never
on my agenda, what was I thinking?
“Shit.”
I ran out of there like a bat
out of hell, with nothing on but a soccer jersey.
Damn. Shit. Fuck.
REVIEW

(3.75 stars)
So this was a very short novella.... took me 20 min to read. Bethany gets dragged out to a club by her sister... where she proceeds to let loose a bit. She ends up meeting and going home with Jenson, a major league soccer player. Bethany just wants it to be a one night stand... but Jenson knows what he wants when he sees it... will he wear her down or will Bethany get her wish and be left alone?Review by: Jennifer

Not as erotic a read as I would have thought.. and TBH I really wanted more... as in more story. This could easily be turned into a novel.... or at least a bit longer of a novella. I will still give this 3.75 stars as it kept my attention and was entertaining.
