Jock Row: Jock Row 1 (Jocks On Campus) Kindle Edition

This was, hands down, my favourite book by Sara Ney I’ve read so far :) which actually makes it harder for me to write a review :) you might think it’s weird but for some reason it’s much easier for me to write a review when I had some issues with the book… when it’s the opposite situation… *sighs* I mean, in how many different ways can you say that it was perfection? ;) so excuse me while I make some completely chaotic points about all the things I loved about it :)#1 NO DRAMA :) I mean… I know that some people complained in their reviews about this story because there was no conflict… you know, the one that usually happens near the end of the book and has to be resolved before the happy ending… I’m rarely a fan of those situations, cause a lot of the time it’s blown out of proportion and it’s not handled very well by the main characters… I’m talking about the situations when there’s this like big fight or something like that, often because of some stupid miscommunication that could be resolved by an honest conversation but sometimes instead of days it’s weeks, or worse, months before it’s dealt with… so the further I got into this book, the more worried I got… cause I was really loving it and I was dreading this sort of situation… but it NEVER HAPPENED :) it’s just a beautiful story about two people meeting, becoming friends and falling for one another with an absolutely the sweetest epilogue at the end :) on the other hand if you love angst don’t read this book, it’s not for you ;)#2 the story :) I had to start with the “no drama” point cause that one shook me to my very core in the best way possible ;) but let me tell you in a few more details why I adored the story itself :) Scarlett met Sterling “Rowdy” Wade during one of the parties in the baseball house… as in, she went there with her friends, they were flirting with some players and Scarlett was… well, she was sort of pointing out the stupid way they were flirting or how they were lying about some stuff… so Rowdy, the team captain, was designated to keep her on the porch and outside of the house, so she wouldn’t interfere… charming, I know :) but they actually ended up having a good time, with some entertaining banter… they both made an impression on one another, so when one week later Scarlett is back, Sterling is already waiting on the porch… you know, to not let her inside ;) this happens for a few more weeks until it turns into something more… like I mentioned before, they start as friends with that spark of something more underneath, but there’s no rush into anything… it’s actually a slow burn romance and I loved it ;)#3 Scarlett :) I adored her to pieces… I was afraid she would be more of a shy person… and don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing bad about it, I just prefer my heroines different :) she was smart and confident… not the type to often go out or to parties, but not because she hates it… she just likes to spend her time alone :) another thing I loved about her is that she’s a virgin, but doesn’t make that big of a deal about it… I mean, it’s still important to her, cause she hasn’t slept with anyone for a reason, it’s just… it’s hard for me to explain, but I really like her attitude when it comes to this situation… not to mention how it’s handled when it comes to her relationship with Sterling :) and speaking of the devil… ;)#4 Sterling :) what a great hero of the story… what I loved most about him, was that he was interested in Scarlett for something more serious… yes, he was attracted to her, but because they started out as friends and with quite a lot of talking, they were able to build a foundation :) he’s focused and knows what he wants… and he can be very persuasive.. :) yes, patient as well, cause he never pressures Scarlett into anything and always respects her decision to stop, but he can be charming and seductive along the way :)#5 the writing style :) I flew through this book in record time… :) now it’s definitely one of my all time favourites and I will be re-reading it on a regular basis because it was everything I love in stories… and a big part of this is the writing style… the interesting characters, the slow burn romance between them… all the sparks and banter… :) the way they actually talk with one another and communicate… :) *squeels with joy* I need more stories like that#6 audiobook :) last but not least, as much as I am just in general recommending you to read this book in any format you prefer, I highly encourage you to give the audiobook a try :) it was absolutely phenomenal, and both narrators really brought the main characters to life :) I enjoyed every minute of it and in the future will probably re-read the story in that format as well… ;)

This is a nice and cute little story, albeit lacking in drama, which doesn't bother me at all. However, I felt that it lacked depth and complexity. Although I liked the idea of the plot, the execution fell short. The conversations on the porch between the main characters grew boring, and I wasn't convinced that they could become best friends. It feels more like a statement than my own observation.The development of the couple's relationship was sweet, and their intimacy was touching. However, it wasn't enough to make me rate the book any higher. There was little action aside from their interactions, and the book failed to show their growth in their chosen professions or other qualities of their personalities. Additionally, the scene where Rowdy confesses his feelings to his mother was quite odd. While it may be something a mother would hope to hear from her son, it felt artificial.Another issue that I couldn't overlook was the typo. They were quite distracting, as I had to reread sentences to understand what was missing. If you're particular about grammar, this is a fair warning.Overall, the book wasn't bad, but it's more suitable for readers who are up to flat and simplistic stories.

I don't always read stories with college aged main characters because they sometimes come off as too juvenile but this story really found a great balance of exploring first loves with humor and substance. I really enjoyed reading this. I do kind of wonder what happened to the girl's friends as they sort of disappear from the plot half way through but overall the story solely focuses on the two main characters and not much else from their lives. Again, that's not normally what I want in a book (I prefer at least a glimpse into the day to day life and relationships with sub characters too) but somehow this one pulled me in and I couldn't put it down. It's a nice glimpse into falling in love with two college students who start out butting heads but quickly become friends and then realize it's something more. There's some steamy scenes and a happy ending with a glimpse of their future together.

I'm going to start out by saying, that last chapter made me so mushy....I started crying at the end. Absolute. Relationship. Goals.That being said, Scarlett really irritated me as a character the first chapter. I didn't enjoy her one bit and was dreading reading any farther, knowing I'd mostly be reading in her POV. To my surprise, she seemed to do a one-eighty and I ended up being fairly neutral towards her by the end. Though I do wonder whatever happened to Tessa and Cameron...they seemed to vanish entirely from the story.Sterling is an absolute marshmallow, rock hard abs and all, and my God I want to hug him! The man is the perfect blend of hot athlete and witty intellect and I couldn't get enough of him. I loved his parents and the way he interacted with them and I love how he fell for Scarlett. He was such an intricate character and it was a joy reading about him and getting to know him!Jock Row was a great book, despite my gripes. Just get through the first chapter, and you'll be smooth sailing!

This was a fab start to what looks to be a great new series. I really enjoyed the premises of the story from the very beginning I Loved Scarlett she was so individual and determined to do things her way. It’s definitely a feel good story with plenty of laughs along the way.Scarlett and Rowdy don’t meet in the conventional way after he is inducted to remove her from the party as she is killing the Jocks game, after she is out of the house he is determined that she isn’t getting back in. After the first encounter their friendship grows every Friday night they spend on the porch talking and getting to know each other in a unique, funny and entirely too sweet way.Scarlett is sassy, confident and not afraid to say what she is thinking and the way she handled Rowdy made me smile. Rowdy is a stereotypical cocky jock who is used to attention from girls but the fact that Scarlett doesn’t care about his athletic status or if he will make her popular intrigues him and before long he feels a whole lot more for her than he ever expected.Neither were looking for love but that’s what they find. This is a slow burn but well worth the time to read. If you need a pick me up then this book will make you smile and laugh.

I started reading this book and at first I didn’t like Scarlette very much. She seemed a bit of a bitch and normally I wouldn’t read anymore but for some reason I kept reading, maybe it was because I already like Rowdy. Wow! I’m so glad I did, Scarlette wasn’t at all like I thought she was and Rowdy was everything he should be. The slow burn made it all the better because you waited with baited breath to find out how they felt and would they get together. I loved it, it had such an unusual story and both Rowdy and Scarlette turned out to be very likeable. It was a book I couldn’t put down because it kept you waiting and wanting more. I’m so glad I read this and am definitely reading more of these books. I think more girls are going to want to be thrown out of a party if they get the results Scarlette got. All in all a great read

Scarlett goes to a jock party by her friends, still not fully over a cold she's dressed to keep warm. When Scarlett calls out a jock for lying she ends up in the front pitch with Rowdy, the captain of the team. What happens when they get to know each other? What happens when they look forward to sitting on the pitch each Friday? Sara Ney writes great jock stories that make you want to be in college, meeting the characters in her books! I loved this for the sassiness of Scarlett and the way Rowdy treats her like a previous jewel!

Jock Row is the first book I've read by Sara Ney and it most definitely won't be the last! I couldn't put it down and loved the creative way she wrote the story. There's no drama, which allows you to focus on the friendship, and then relationship, building between Scarlett and ‘Rowdy’ who give plenty of laugh out loud moments with their witty banter and Friday night games.I could've read this book forever, but it sadly had to end. I will definitely read Jock Row again and can't wait for the second book in this series. I just wish I could give this book more than 5 stars! If you haven't read Jock Row yet, then don't delay and download your copy today!

What a fab fab read! Was Sara Ney through and through HahaHooked within the first chapter I didnt want to stop reading this at any point...The banter between these guys was so good and I just found myself smiling at so many points throughout reading!Scarlett goes to a party with friends and when she has a disagreement with some 'Jocks' shes asked to leave.It comes down to team captain Rowdy to escort her out the house... and both their lives aren't the same again!Absolutely loved the frjdnship chemistry and jokes between these guys!Would recommend this as good feel good story.
