Rhys Cole’s life has always revolved around hockey. Growing up, he knew he’d play in the National Hockey League, but when his dream of being drafted didn’t happen, he chose the next best thing: becoming a hockey sportscaster for a local sports station. But just like in sports, you win some, you lose some. When Rhys discovers his girlfriend cheating with a stranger in his bed, he walks to the local bar down the street to let off some steam.
After moving her way up the journalism field by covering stories in extreme weather conditions and working late hours, Ashtyn Valor is now the lead anchor for the nightly news. Finally settled into her career, Ashtyn is ready to take the next step in life with her boyfriend. But when he unexpectedly breaks up with her, Ashtyn decides to numb the pain with alcohol at the closest bar.
Rhys and Ashtyn both expected an evening of alcohol to mask the pain of that October night. What they didn’t expect was meeting someone who could shield them from the darkness of their heartaches.
Or that their pasts would dangerously intertwine …
When obsession becomes dangerous, Ashtyn turns to Rhys for safety. But how safe are they really?
The game of love always goes on.
And their game was just beginning.
ARC received for an honest review
It has been a while since I have read a Kimberly Knight book, and what a great way to get back into them.
Use Me, right from the start, has quickly become a favourite of her books for me.
Rhys and Ashtyn's story is smart and sexy. I love that they are both successful in their fields and that they feel equal (none of this simpering woman wondering why he wants her). There is a delicious push/pull between them that I couldn't help but adore. Neither are looking for a relationship, but that doesn't mean a relationship doesn't have plans for them!
There is also some mystery and suspense throughout the story, just waiting to play out for all to see.
The drama wasn't OTT, and wasn't there just for the sake of it. Our lovelies had their ups and downs (yes, those ones as well lol) but I loved how they reacted and resolved things - like adults!
There were a couple of twists that the reader could see coming, however getting taken along for the ride as things unfold was great.
I really did like Use Me, and can't wait to see what Ms Knight brings us next.
