Eclectic Review's Reviews > Olympic Crown

All she wants is orgasms and lattes. All he wants is her to be a buffer between him and his ex. A fake relationship with benefits may be more real than they planned.

Brent Faulkner is an Olympic swimmer who wants no more drama or distractions in his life. He doesn't have the time to dedicate to a relationship. Enter his clingy ex, Val, who only wants him for who he is. So a temporary fake relationship is formed with the candid and sexy Posey Jensen to fend off the ex. As they start to spend more time together, Brent discovers slotting Posey into his busy training schedule works better than he expected. But convincing Posey to make it real is going to be a challenge.

Posey is a woman of many layers and a "friends collector". She's an extreme extrovert who has no problem expressing her feelings. Boyfriends are not her thing, but when her crush, Brent Faulkner, gives her an offer she can't refuse with no strings attached she accepts wholeheartedly. Until lines start to blur and feelings get involved.

It's refreshing to see a strong young woman who knows what she wants. Posey is the girl I wished I'd been at that age. She literally charms the pants off of Brent and then plays hard to get. They have very different dreams and valid reasons for not getting attached so I was keen to find out how their new deal would play out and it didn't disappoint. Brent is a loveable book boyfriend with sexy and heartwarming moves to melt the stone-hearted Posey. When they both realize that compromise and the right person can bring happiness, it's a whole new ballgame for the young lovers. 

This fast-paced college rom-com is hilarious, passionate, and full of durable characters who are willing to take a chance on love while not sacrificing their dreams and aspirations. I can't wait to read more from this author.

Thank you to Ms. Millions for giving me the opportunity to read this book with no expectation of a positive review.
