Big Shot - Lauderdale Knights #2 - by Kat Mizera (Jude and Chloe)

Big Shot by Kat Mizera is available now!


Available on All Platforms

ABOUT THE BOOK

Welcome to Fort Lauderdale—where the days are hot and the Knights are hotter.

Jude:
I’ve always said I would settle down when the time—and the woman—was right. So having a friends-with-benefits relationship fits right into my plans. Until it doesn’t. The line between friendship and wanting more with the gorgeous doctor is blurring with each passing day. The more I get to know her, the harder it gets to stay away. I need to show Chloe there’s more to us than just chemistry… but first I have to admit it to myself.

Chloe:
I thought I had my life all mapped out. College, medical school, and then a demanding career as a successful doctor. Now I’m having doubts about all of it, and the last thing I need is a professional athlete with abs for days to add to my distraction and derail my plans. Falling for a big shot hockey player like Jude would be a mistake. But everything is so good between us— there’s no way I can just walk away.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

USA Today Bestselling and award-winning author Kat Mizera is a South Florida native. Born in Miami Beach with a healthy dose of wanderlust, she's called Los Angeles, Long Island, upstate New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Atlanta home. She's never been able to pick which locale is her favorite, but if pressed, she'd probably choose the west coast.

A typical PTA mom with a wonderful and supportive husband (Kevin) and two amazing boys (Nick and Max), Kat can usually be found scrapbooking or indulging in her second love (after writing) - traveling. Greece is one of her favorite places in the world. She loves that Athens is a big city with a small-town feel. The food, beaches and culture keep her going back as often as possible.

Kat's been a working freelance writer for nearly 30 years. She sold her first article--a review of a rock concert--for $10 in 1985. Since then she's been an entertainment journalist, waitress, bartender, legal assistant, food critic, magazine editor, substitute teacher, and sports writer. She also spent some time working at A & M Records in Los Angeles.

As you can guess from her Las Vegas Sidewinders series, Kat loves hockey and occasionally writes articles about her favorite team, the Florida Panthers. The rest of the time, she writes novels: sexy, romantic fiction that she hopes makes you as happy as it makes her. There's something enticing about hockey players and romance...

Connect with Kat:

 This is book 2 in the series but easily stands alone. It stars Jude from the Lauderdale Knights Hockey Team, a new Florida Hockey team in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and Chloe who we met in the previous book as she is best friends with the heroine from Slapshot. 

Chloe is a doctor who is supposed to be doing her residency but who is having a crisis of career choice and so instead is flying off to different countries handing out vaccinations, meds and doctoring. She goes on missions for weeks or months and then comes back to Florida until her next trip. 

In this story her and Jude enter into a very casual relationship which includes nights of casual sex when she is in town which ends up leading to more and she has some big decisions she needs to make about her future. Jude ends up falling for her and has to convince her to give him and his heart a real shot with her.

I really enjoyed this story. Its really about growing up and deciding what you want your future to be and sometimes its hard but worthwhile. 

I loved how into her Jude was and that he was willing to do the hard work if in the end he could end up with a future with Chloe. Chloe had some really big choices ahead of her. I felt at times she ran away a lot from her future and Jude and even her career. She was at a crossroads and had to decide what she really wanted out of her life. 

I received a complimentary early release copy of this e-book from the author prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.
