Necessary Line: A Sports Action & Adventure Romance (Taskforce Ironside) Kindle Edition

by Jane O'Roarke (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
3.9 3.9 out of 5 stars 48 ratings

An Instalove action & adventure romance. Soulmates don't come in pairs…do they?

Kaida Petrovic left Sarajevo looking for a better life. International terrorists, a missing brother, and being kidnapped turn her life upside down.

Before meeting Kaida, NFL teammates Jett Tupou and Leo Sullivan played hard, on and off the field. Saving the girl and winning the Super Bowl was the easy part. Figuring out how to love the same woman without killing each other was the kicker.

In this sizzling romance, love takes center stage, testing the limits of loyalty, friendship, and passion. Can Kaida, Jett, and Leo find a way to make their unconventional love story work, or will it be a game-ender for them all?"

This book is a standalone book in a series that does NOT end on a cliffhanger. It is a safe Instalove romance that ends in a HEA for the main characters.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"It is not a long book but I think it is extremely well written. There are erotic scenes but they are not the hub of the story. Rather the growing relationship, Kaida's challenge to accept Jett and Leo's love, and the maturing of these young men are the core issues around which this story is built. I found it to be a very entertaining read." - Judith - Goodreads Review

      Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2022

      I really liked the storyline. It had good characters and i will reread this book again as i did purchase it. BUT if you are going to write about a sport, please be accurate. Beginning of the book they are still in NFL preseason. A few weeks later they are playing a game to be in the playoffs. 1 game later they are in the superbowl. What?!?!? The quartback plays on offense and his blockers are not his defensive players, they are still offensive players. Errors like this spoil a book for me as I love a good romance book and I love sports (football and hockey primarily).

      Also, the book felt unfinished to me. What happened to the brother? How did that storyline play out? Maybe it's in Raj's book but some follow up in this book would have been helpful. The book just felt like it ended abruptly, like I'm missing a few pages.

      2.0 out of 5 stars Cute story, steam fizzles, needs an editor
      Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2010

      The general story is cute, the idea of a hotel maid finding love with not one, but two hot men. The steam fizzled about halfway through, which was annoying because it was pretty steamy at first. My greatest complaint is that the author either needs an editor or she really should get her money back from whoever edited it. There were grammatical errors, word choice issues, spelling problems... it was just distracting. It's a promising beginning to this author's career, but I would just prefer that she take the time for some good editing.

      I keep re-reading this book, I love the first sex scene, really naughty. A little questioning of the guys sexuality tossed in makes it more realistic. After the first scene everything calms down a little and the plot is developed nicely. It is not a full length book but the price is great for what you get, and it made me look for other novellas by this author.

      I don't write reviews, almost never. I picked up this book not really knowing what to expect and I was blown away. I am not at all familiar with this type of story and this book was my first taste. It was excellent. The love, the caring, possessiveness and hint of danger made it one of the best books i have ever read, and i will definitely be rereading it alot. It was a great book and I thought it deserved the review. Anyone who thinks differently of this book, obviously didn't pay attention.
