The Deal, by Elle Kennedy

 

Hannah Wells is a college student who ends up making a deal with the hockey player Garrett Graham. Garrett's GPA and grades are plummeting, which threatens his chances of getting to play professional hockey. After seeing that a girl in his class passed the exam, he strikes a deal with her. In exchange for tutoring him, he will help her get the attention of the guy she has been crushing on. After one unexpected night, Garrett Graham starts to develop feelings for Hannah and he has to convince the girl who finds him annoying that he is the man for her.

The Deal, by Elle Kennedy, was absolutely amazing. I loved all of the characters and their sense of humors. The funny moments made the book very fun to read and the plot was interesting. This book made me feel all kinds of different emotions from laughter and happiness to sadness. Hannah's backstory of what she went through and her trauma was well written and it made me feel very sad for what she had experienced. I think that this is a good book for people who enjoy college sport romances and characters finding unexpected love. It was a great book and I can not wait to read the rest of the books in the series.
