Mason

I’ll be the first to admit I’m not the nicest person. I’m not soft and delicate; my edges are sharp, and my words can be, too.

For years, I was told my goals, my education, my athletics, my career was the most important thing, and anything else was temporary. And because I trusted my mother’s prejudiced poison, I let the best man I’ve ever known walk away.

It’s been three years. I don’t want to blindside him, but I had my own hurdles to overcome. My head is on straight now, and it’s time to listen to my heart.

I want Tucker back, and I’ll stop at nothing until my gentle giant knows how much he means to me—and how much I regret letting him go in the first place.

Tucker Kingsley is the one for me—and I don’t care how many peanut butter sandwiches it takes, I won’t stop until we’re back together.

BLITZ is a second chance romance featuring a biracial, sex-positive track and field star and the demisexual football player who has her heart.

TW: Addiction, disordered eating

TL;DR Sheesh...but in a good way.

Mason is a LOT. Like, a lot. But she grows and figures things out in a way that is very age-appropriate and makes sense for a college student. Tucker is my spirit animal when it comes to the peanut butter sandwiches. He and I could be very good friends.

I love all the representation in this book. It's done well and gives such depth to the characters and story. Great job on a sophomore release, Allie Lasky! I'll definitely be back for book three and beyond.

I enjoyed this story. This was my first time reading this author. The storyline was cute and catchy. The ending felt rushed and throughout the book it was extremely repetitive. But overall it was a good read.

Didn't like as much as the first book

This story was good but I couldn't give it more stars due to the fact I didn't like Mason, at all. Tucker deserved so much better! I was hoping he was going to meet someone else. She had zero redeeming qualities. I have the next book in the series and am hoping it'll be good like the first

I’m gonna steal Tucker Kingsley. This MMC is an absolute teddy bear of a man. He has feelings and emotions and he’s not afraid to take time and space to heal. As much as I liked this book it was mainly because of Tucker. I can honestly say I hate the FMC not only did she hurt the best man she could ask for so she could have random flings and get blackout drunk she waits two and a half years to come back and forces him to admit he still loves her then becomes so emotionally distant that he starts doubting himself and binge eating to make himself feel better. Tells him she loves him and wants nobody else but doesn’t want an emotional connection with sex she wants it to be meaningless. I honestly wish they wouldn’t have gotten back together. He tried to meet her half way their entire relationship and she didn’t. She pushed and pushed even when he asked her to stop. If she was a man and roles were reversed it would be considered harassment.

College sports romance

Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2023

Being dumped by your high school sweetheart can really hurt, for Tucker Kingsley, it was something that he just couldn’t get over. He thought he had met the one, his person, but when she dumped him over text message, he was heartbroken. Mason thought she was doing the right thing. Tucker and her were getting ready to go to separate colleges, girls throw themselves at Tucker, how could she ever compare to the other beautiful girls Tucker will be around. So she let him go, this way he could explore his options, or so she thought. Tucker was devastated after Mason left, he only got together with one girl, and for him that was a drunken mistake.
Two and a half years later Tucker never thought he would run into his ex-girlfriend on his college campus. All Mason wants to do is talk to Tucker, but he makes that task impossible. He does everything to either ignore her existence. He can’t even look at her.
I received this book as an ARC. I’m still dipping my toes into sports romance, but I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The characters came with strong backgrounds and you easily got to know them though their actions. If I were Tucker I would have made Mason wait a little longer before I talked to her, let alone date her again. I was happy to see the character growth on both Tucker and Mason, especially Tucker being the big strong football player going to see a therapist for his issues. I am excited to see where this series continues to go.

Realizing what you have

Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2022

The writing quality is great and the world they are in is told in a realistic way. The characters are clearly meant to be but fear controlled our h. You're going to meet back up with familiar faces but this can be read as a stand alone. This was a detailed read about a complicated couple. A story filled with ups and downs and deep emotions.

She needed to realize there was no pressure in love, to just be.

Let me say I loved catching up with the previous couple as they were SO fantastic and fun and cozy as they fell in love. In this case both are written well but my heart was broken for our H. I don't identify with a character like our h who can back away from something and someone so real. I know in real life people can get back together and even having been with others in the meantime. I just don't see the point and it's a painful thing to do if you feel a certain way about your partner. Life is complicated however and your partner might take longer to really understand their feelings. Such great writing and real characters, connections but way too painful. I'm A romantic so you can see why as you read this. But credit where credit is due with such writing talent. I am so happy they are finally together. He was a strong guy and she was lucky that he had a great big heart when hers finally caught up.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Heartfelt romance!

Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2022

Tucker swears he's seeing things, surely the beautiful girl before him is not the girl that broke his heart, walked away and never looked back. She headed off to college in the opposite direction and there is no way she'd transfer to his campus... or is there?

Blitz is a wonderfully written story of second chances, personal growth and forgiveness. The history that Tucker and Mason share is filled with hurt, regret, and some lingering feelings of love. When Mason decided to switch schools it was mainly for a new beginning, but to also mend what was broken between her and Tucker. She misses him and wants him back and is willing to do just about anything to win his heart again... if it means suffering his wrath. He is a wounded man, not willing to forgive and he has a lot of hostility to work through. It's a messy and emotional reunion, one I am very happy I had to the chance to read.

This new to me author continues to impress me with her words, this second installment in the series is all heart, angst, and feels and I loved every minute of it. This second chance doesn't come easy, and at times you'll be left wondering if it'll happen... but have a little faith, these two eventually find their way. If you like emotional new adult romances than I have no doubt you'll enjoy what you find between the pages here, Mason and Tucker have quite the captivating and heartfelt story to tell! Highly recommend!
