BOOK REVIEW: Rush Me by Allison Parr

Rush Me by Allison Parr
Genres: Contemporary Romance, New Adult
My Rating: ♥♥♥♥

When post-grad Rachael Hamilton accidentally gatecrashes a pro-athlete party, she ends up face-to-face with Ryan Carter, the NFL’s most beloved quarterback.

While most girls would be thrilled to meet the attractive young millionaire, Rachael would rather spend time with books than at sporting events, and she has more important things to worry about than romance. Like her parents pressuring her to leave her unpaid publishing internship for law school. Or her brother, who’s obliviously dating Rachael’s high school bully. Or that same high school’s upcoming reunion.

Still, when Ryan’s rookie teammate attaches himself to Rachael, she ends up cohosting Friday night dinners for half a dozen football players.

Over pancake brunches, charity galas, and Alexander the Great Rachael realizes all the judgments she’d made about Ryan are wrong. But how can a Midwestern Irish-Catholic jock with commitment problems and an artsy, gun-shy Jewish New Englander ever forge a partnership? Rachael must let down her barriers if she wants real love–even if that opens her up to pain that could send her back into her emotional shell forever.

 My Thoughts

I was declined to get an arc for this but that didn't stop me for buying the book. The cover and blurb got me on this one. ^_^

Rachael was on her way to a friend’s party but ended up walking into the wrong place and walks in on super sexy NFL star Ryan. Two different people held a very strong attraction to each other.

Okay, so our heroine Rachael is an uptight b*tch.. lol. Through out the book I really didn't like her. She came to me as a mean heroine... I actually felt sorry for Ryan but I guess that's one of the reason why he and I fell in love with her. She's not your typical doormatish heroine.

The plot isn't original, I always read hot guy meets ordinary girl, but I'm a sucker for this kind of theme. :-)
This held my attention and honestly despite the cliche storyline I couldn't put it down. The characters are flawed and stubborn but that didn't stop me for liking the story.

This is entertaining sweet read and highly recommend it! Will definitely be reading more of her books.
