Description ~*~
Sara Jenkins, a math geek and hockey fanatic, is thrilled
when the NHL hires her as an advisor for the Buffalo Storm. She gets to marry
her two loves in this perfect job.
Sebastian St. Amant is a young hockey player looking to
make the jump from the minors to the big leagues. His lifelong dream is within
reach, but he needs to convince the Storm's management and coaches he's ready.
When Sara and Sebastian meet, sparks immediately fly.
Both want to succeed, but neither can ignore the growing attraction and a
relationship is out of the question—Sara’s an influential staff member and
Sebastian’s a player, not to mention over ten years her junior.
But the impossible becomes the necessary when they can no
longer fight their attraction. As everything crashes around them, the strength
of their relationship is tested. Will it weather the storm, or should they have
known better?

Excerpt ~*~
She
couldn’t help herself. She needed to taste him again. Swiping her tongue over
the tip, she sampled his hot skin and arousal roared through her.
Pulling his
thumb out, he brought their bodies flush then kissed her hard. It was a kiss
filled with fire, his lips hot and restless. He pushed his tongue into her
mouth, exploring and spreading a warm blanket of lust over her. Sebastian
kissed her as if he was establishing possession, and a heavy wave of ecstasy
flooded her.
“Tu es ma
femme.”
4 Star Review ~*~
Cassandra Carr never disappoints Having read several of her books, she is a must read author and one we highly recommend and Should've Known Better fits right in there. This steamy story of an older woman with a younger man is a journey not to be missed.
Sara is a down to earth character that is well nothing short of nerdy ~ loved it ~. She has finally landed her dream job and even though she is attracted to Sebastian, she takes her responsibilities seriously and can't have a relationship with a player when she is part of the team herself. This job with a hockey team lets her satisfy her geeky fascination with numbers while working with her favorite sports team. While she is a little uptight, it is fun to watch her struggle with her journey. Sebastian is a rookie on the hockey team and needs to secure his place. While he knows he shouldn't pursue Sara, he can't seem to help himself.
I seriously hope that Cassandra Carr writes more books based with this hockey team. I love a good hockey story with romance mixed in and as she is such a talented writer it would be a pleasure to read more. Should've Known Better really touches on relationships in the workplace, passion and living up to your own ideals. I loved the characters and storyline so much that I finished it quickly just absorbing everything.
