REVIEW: Chasing the Ring by Lauren Rowe

 


OUR REVIEW:

This one was cute, y'all. I love a good romance that involves sports and this one definitely fit that...heavy on the romance, light on the sports, but it worked. Iris and Roman meet and fall in love in one romantic week in Hawaii. She's enjoying what was supposed to be her honeymoon and he's killing time before he meets up with a former coach...there's no way that they should've ever been together, never even met, but they do and the first two thirds of the novel ...or maybe first half...is all about that. It's the aftermath of that week where the swoon comes in. The steps Roman takes to prove that he is who she thought he was...and the steps she takes to show him that he can trust her and himself, is sweet and full of romance.

New to me writer, Lauren Rowe, gave me a solid romance reading experience. 


SYNOPSIS:

Iris Benedetto’s wedding day just went viral . . . for all the wrong reasons.
After a heated blowout with her lying, cheating fiancé at the altar, Iris storms off on a solo honeymoon—loudly announcing that she’s finally going to find out what good sex is all about. Rebranding from small-town preschool teacher to #Horny Runaway Bride was not the plan, but the insanely hot stranger who ends up double-booked in her bungalow on the island of Kauai is an opportunity even devastated Iris can’t ignore.

It’s not often NFL quarterback Roman Maguire meets someone who doesn’t recognize him. Even rarer to have that someone barge in while he’s taking a shower and quickly make him an irresistible offer. Roman is in Hawaii to secure the deal that could finally land him a Super Bowl ring—and closer proximity to his son. A sexy fling in paradise is a perfect way to spend a week with a surprise roommate . . .

Except . . . suddenly a week doesn’t seem nearly enough. And once the truth about Roman’s identity, Iris’s internet infamy, and all kinds of loyalty-testing secrets are revealed, will they both be willing to step into the real-life spotlight together?
