REVIEW ➞ Bombshells by Sarina Bowen

BLURB ➞

The women’s league is in the house! And Brooklyn will never be the same again for Anton Bayer and the team…

This is my last chance to ditch my playboy reputation and finally fulfill my potential. So I’ve made three rules for our biggest season yet: no boozing, no women, and no scandals.

Especially that last thing.

So who do I befriend on the very first day back at the rink? An amazing female hockey player. I want Sylvie in a way that’s more than just friendly. I crave her. But I have a championship to win, and so does she.

Then she gets her heart broken by my teammate, and I make the foolish mistake of comforting her in the best way I know how. Our night together sets off a string of sins.

Nobody can know about our affair, especially my overprotective teammate. I can’t let anyone see into my greedy little heart. Not even her.

The things I want from her, and the things we’ve already done? If anyone knew, there’d be bombshells.

Contains: a defenseman with dreamy blue eyes, a female goalie with bad ideas, a major battle of the sexes and a swimming pool scene…


A bombshell is a sudden revelation. An overwhelming surprise. That’s what we’re supposed to be, in this scenario – the thing that makes New York realize that women’s hockey is great.


ARC REVIEW ➞

A women’s hockey team is in town and I absolutely love them.

Sylvie grew up around hockey and she is now a goalie for the Brooklyn Bombshells, something she never thought would be possible. Her childhood best friend and crush, Bryce, happens to play for the Brooklyn Bruisers. She thought this would give them the opportunity to be together…that is until she met his teammate Anton.

Sylvie and Anton have instant chemistry and I quickly fell in love with the two of them. They both share a love of hockey. They are both focused on the sport, especially Anton. They don’t want anything serious and decide to keep things secret. Anton is super swoony and you can’t help but love him. Sylvie is also a fantastic character, however, I wasn’t a huge fan of her lusting after Bryce in the beginning of the story.

This is a low drama, fairly light read. If you’ve never read a Brooklyn Bruisers book this provides a great introduction to some of those characters, but you won’t be lost if you’re just starting out. I hope there are more of the Bombshells in the future because I am all for this women’s hockey team.

If you love sports romances this is one to read.
