#Review of Too Tempting by Bethany Lopez #Romance

 

Gabriel "Gabe" Lewis retired from the NFL and returned home to Cherry Springs. He combined his passion for football with camping and is now the owner of a football camp for teens. His summers are dedicated to spending time with family and teaching his campers about the sport he loves.

Zoey Zahn is a quirky, introverted writer and self-proclaimed geek. When she's asked if she’ll accompany her nephew, Christopher, to camp, Zoey agrees, envisioning quiet evenings of writing in the great outdoors. After she stumbles upon Gabe, however, quiet evenings alone are the last thing on her mind.

The chemistry between Gabe and Zoey is undeniable, but as camp ends, a brewing storm causes their blooming relationship to fumble. All Gabe knows is that Zoey is Too Tempting to deny, and he's determined to overcome the obstacles between them to be the man she deserves.

 

My Review

I had some mixed feelings about this one. The story had some unique elements, which I enjoyed. And it dealt with some of the realistic fallout from the central conflict of the story. My biggest issue was how quickly said conflict was resolved. I just wish the author would have drawn it out a little more and gave us a glimpse of them talking it out.

Other than that, however, I enjoyed the story. The set up was fun and provided a great backdrop for the couple's romance. Gabe was great and Zoey was very much the typical writer getting swept up in her stories and having inspiration strike her at the least opportune times.

I read a review that said the reader was uncomfortable with the story line, however, I didn't have an issue with it. There are plenty of books where the roll is flipped. I liked how the author took a rather common trope and turned it on its head.
