Synopsis (Goodreads):

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 - absolutely 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.

Thoughts on Good Boy: I'm going to admit I didn't love Blake when we first met him. He came across as immature and kinda uncaring about the feelings of those around him. Basically, I thought he was just in it for whatever cheap thrills and good times he could wrangle from every situation.

However, he grew on me. Yes, he did have a very upbeat, motor-mouthed personality, but he also had a big heart. His lack of a filter made him blurt things out that maybe he would have been better keeping to himself at times, but he pulled Jess out of her own head a time or two and that's nothing to sneer at.

In other words, I ended up liking the big lug.

I LIKED HIM, OKAY? He was endearing and kinda overboard goofy and I liked him.

It took a while for him to grow on Jess, too. But once he did, the two of them were tearing up the sheets something fierce. And doing the couple-y thing. It was cute and sweet and I LIKED IT.
