Product Description

Book Description
To the deep disappointment of her large family, PR princess Theresa Falconetti never dates Italians, men from her old Brooklyn neighborhood, or professional athletes.

Michael Dante, winger for the Stanley Cup champion New York Blades, is all three -- and he is head over heels for her. So when Theresa finds herself a buttoned-up lawyer, Michael is forced to take his game to the next level.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet, Sweet Romance, 11 Feb 2004
Readers of Deirdre Martin's first book Body Check will remember Theresa Falconetti as Janna's feisty best friend who is almost raped by an ice hockey player. Theresa returns as the main character in this book still dealing with the fallout from the incidents in the first book. She has become straight laced, no nonsense and definitely not interested in ice hockey players which is why she is not very impressed when ice hockey player with a heart of gold Michael Dante starts pursuing her. Not only is he an ice hockey player but like Theresa he is Italian and from Brooklyn, two things she has spend most of her adult life trying to get away from.

He is relentless and Theresa is in turn charmed by Michael and frightened by her own feelings and past experiences. She has a lot to deal with as does Michael. His hockey career only has a few years to go so he decides to revamp the restaurant his parents left to him and his brother so he hires Theresa’s firm to handle the PR.

I love reading books about ice hockey players and Michael Dante would have to be the sweetest male romance character ever. The whole book left me with a soppy grin on my face and sighing a lot. I enjoyed this book just as much as its raunchier predecessor Body Check and the supporting characters seemed more fleshed out and realistic than in Body Check.

I can't wait to read Deirdre Martin's next novel.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not the best but not the worst, 17 Jun 2004
By A Customer
Theresa Falconetti has to be one of the most annoying heroines ever.
I admit that going through a very harrowing ordeal will wreak havoc to a person, but that doesn't stop her from forming a realationship with a total loser, who doesn't even turn up to her father's funeral, whilst, waiting in the wings, is the most perfect guy she will ever find (Michael Dante) is constantly rejected on the grounds that she doesn't date Italian guys. Eevn though Theresa is Italian herself.
I know that she is fictional, but she really irked me and she didn't deserves the hero (who could do much better)
Other than the heroine, the book isn't all that bad and I'm looking forward to TOTAL RUSH which will feature Micheal's cousin Gemma. I enjoyed BODY CHECK the previous book to this much better and I would rate that as 5 stars.
Read that first, and then read this if you like annoying and whiny heroines.
