Cat's Review of Rules of Play (The Saints of Westmont U) by Hayden Hall @authorhaydenhall @neonrainbowarcreviews @tammystwocents X- @TTCBooksandmore

He was supposed to be my study subject, not my obsession.

Shane 

I study elite athletes: their focus, their flaws, their fire. But Patrick Callahan? He’s a category of his own.

Too loud, too confident, and way too hot to be safe for science.

He’s all swagger and sweat and reckless charm.

Tracking his heartbeat was easy.

Keeping mine under control? Impossible.

Now I’m kissing this bi-curious jock in dark corners and pretending this isn’t the most unprofessional thing I’ve ever done.

He’s not just messing with my research—he’s messing with my heart.

If I’m not careful, he might just break it.

Patrick

I agreed to let the shy nerd shadow me for a psych project.

Discovering the range of my sexuality and falling for him was never part of the plan.

But Shane—my sweet, brilliant, rule-following Shane—has no idea how much I crave him.

He thinks I don’t see how he stares when I stretch after practice, or how red his ears get when I take off my shirt.

He thinks I’m just a jock with no heart. I’ll show him just how wrong he is.

I’ll make him feel it—on the ice, in my bed, and everywhere in between.

Because once I’ve got him, I’m keeping him.

Rules of Play is a hockey romance and the third in The Saints of Westmont U series. It follows a shy nerd and a cocky jock in a forced proximity thesis research, gay awakening, and first times. While each book can be read on its own, reading in order will be more fun.

Cat gives this book 3 meows with a 4 purr heat index...

This is book 3 in The Saints of Westmont U series. It can be read on its own but reading in order you have a better understanding of setting, team and characters.

I found it a good college hockey romance but felt there wasn't a big plot or a lot of conflict. 

Shane is doing a study on Patrick a star hockey player and it is a pretty sweet romance with lots of heat.
