Prescott Series Book 2
Release and Review
Synopsis
***STANDALONE NOVEL***
Dane Prescott spends his days staring at perfect holes, and knows how to use his stiff shaft to get there. He’s as hot as he is good at the sport he loves more than breathing.
Dane has one goal and one goal only, to be on the professional golf tour. It’s who he is and what he lives for. Women, although fun, aren’t in his long-term plans.
Beverly Whitfield didn’t start off as the confident woman she is today. Teased mercilessly as a child and always feeling second-best, she set out to change her future and is finally putting herself first. Never in her wildest imagination did she think she’d fall for a man with stunning good looks and sex seeping from his pores. And, oh yeah, he plays golf.
To those who say golf is complicated and frustrating, Dane says, “No, that’s love.”
**Intended for readers over the age of 18**
Virginia’s Review
Dane Prescott is a man whore. Simply put. He meets woman, has sex with them, and moves on to the next woman. He’s also all about the game of golf- teaching and hoping to become pro. He’s self-confident and has no trouble getting woman at all. Beverly Whitfield is a teacher who also volunteers for underprivileged children. She’s beautiful but insecure stemming from her childhood and has issues around that. To say she doesn’t like golf is an understatement. Her parents always put her second to it as a child.
Dane and Beverly meet at a charity event and they are instantly attracted to each other. Will Dane put his ways behind him and be faithful to Beverly? Can he put Beverly before golf? Can Beverly overcome her own insecurities and trust Dane? Can they make it work when distance separates them?
Let me just say I loved both of these characters, individually and as a couple. Gripped is written in dual point of view and Joanne does a great job with both. Dane is hot. Hot. Hot. Hot. He’s sexy as hell with a dirty mouth. He goes after what he wants and despite his ways as a man whore he’s really a decent guy. Beverly is a great, relatable female character. Like a lot of us, she’s insecure and has to let some of that go. She’s sweet but also has an attitude and a sharp tongue at times but I think that’s just her defenses coming out. Together they are a great couple- they just have to work through some things to realize that and make it work.
I really enjoyed Gripped. The dual point of view is great, the characters are fun, it’s well written and it’s perfectly paced. Seeing characters from Book 1, Incumbent, was also fun. I cannot wait to read the next book in the series and more about the Prescotts! Go pick up Gripped- I promise you will be gripped from the beginning!
