The first book of the new series by Sarina Bowen and Elle Kennedy is finally here!
Synopsis
Hosting her brother’s wedding for an MVP guest list is the challenge of Jess Canning’s life. Already the family screw-up, she can’t afford to fail. And nobody (nobody!) can learn of the colossal mistake she made with the best man during a weak moment last spring. It was wrong, and there will not be a repeat. Absolutely not. Even if he is the sexiest thing on two legs.
Blake Riley sees the wedding as fate’s gift to him. Jess is the maid of honor and he’s the best man? Let the games begin. So what if he’s facing a little (fine, a lot) of resistance? He just needs to convince the stubborn blonde that he’s really a good boy with a bad rap. Luckily, every professional hockey player knows that you’ve got to make an effort if you want to score.
But Jess has more pressing issues to deal with than sexy-times with a giant man-child. Such as: Will the ceremony start on time, even though someone got grandma drunk? Does glitter ever belong at a wedding? And is it wrong to murder the best man?
Caution: May cause accidental aspiration of tea or coffee. Do not read in a public place where loud laughter is inappropriate. Contains hot but hilarious hockey players, puppy cuddling and a snarky pair of underwear.

My Review
Every time I start a book by Sarina and Elle, I've come to know that I will probably love it, and this time was no different!
I've loved this book so so much!
First of all, I strongly recommend to read Him and Us before reading this book. In Us we first meet Blake, we fall in love with him, and there is even the first encounter between Blake and Jess!
So yes, definitely start from that series.
But let me tell you more about Good Boy.
The story focuses on Blake and Jess. Blake is a hockey player, a hot, very hot hockey player, and he's also in the same team as Jess' brother-in-law.
The first encounter between them is nothing to be forgotten... Just two words: massage chair. A very hot and kinky massage chair.
Blake and Jess couldn't be more different: he's the funniest, simplest guy ever, always laughing, always happy, always full of energy. At first, he appears like a guy who has not a worry in the world, always with a prompt (and usually funny) answer to every problem.
Jess appears to be more serious: she's in a place where she has to take some life-altering decisions, absolutely no time for a relationship, never mind a story with a guy that seems not to have the word "serious" in his vocabulary.
But never underestimate the power of a guy who can make you laugh! Step by step, we see how their relationship changes.
They become friends and confidents. And lovers (OMG, please give me a real Blake, I want one too!).
One of the things that I've loved the most was coming to understand the whole Blake package: the complexity, pass me the term, of this amazing guy. I think of him as THE Good Boy, the one that has a heart of gold, that puts the need of the others before his. Even if personally hurt, he doesn't want to retaliate (and boy, what happened to him was nothing to joke about!).
And I can't forget the secondary characters, that in my opinion give so much to a story! I had so much fun reading about Jess's roommate, or Jamie and Wes (<3), or Blake's teammates and the Wags!
To finish, I want to say that I've loved this couple, the chemistry between them was something amazing, two different people that balance one another in such a perfect way!
I would have so much more to tell about this great book, but I don't want to spoiler anything, so go buy this book and fall in love with this awesome story!
