Love Sidelined

Oh my aching heart!  Love Sidelined by Tiffany Odekirk was beyond amazing!  I swear her books keep getting better and better.  In fact, I had an extremely hard time putting this book down last night to go to sleep.  If I didn’t have to be an adult and go to work, then this book would’ve been finished in one day of reading it.

This book actually is actually the third in the Jennings Family Series.  The first two being Love on Pointe and Love Unscripted.  Though this book is considered a stand-a-lone, I do recommend that you read them in order.  You get to know the characters better that way, and when you see them appear in the other books, it feels live a family reunion of sorts.

This book made me laugh so many times, but it also made me ache for the characters, Jason and Allie, as well.  I can’t wait for the next book in the series.

I highly recommend this book to all romance readers out there.  You don’t even have to like football to love this story.

Book Blurb

Jason Jennings made a tough call two years ago when he left behind his status as a hard-playing star quarterback in order to serve the Lord. Recently returned from his mission now, he’s ready to get back on the football field at UCAL.  But despite turning his life around, his bad-boy reputation is proving hard to shake.

Allie Hollis is everything a cheerleader should be—beautiful, outgoing, and smart—but her brilliant smile hides a devastating secret. So when Jason begins to show interest in her, there’s no question: her answer is no.

Yet, in the face of Allie’s chilly response, Jason’s gentle persistence pays off, and a tentative friendship grows. Their chemistry is obvious, but Allie’s determination to steer clear of a relationship with Jason goes deeper that he realizes. When the truth of her painful history comes to light, the couple must decide whether they will remain on the sidelines or jump back into the game of love.
