RELEASE REVIEW: The Ex Effect by Karla Sorensen

Title: The Ex Effect

Author: Karla Sorensen

Genre: Romantic Comedy

Release Date: December 5, 2018 Cover Design: Najla Qamber Designs

The headline could write itself:

Matthew Hawkins, star defensive end, comes out of retirement to play for the Washington Wolves. 

Which is perfectly fine by Ava Baker—it makes her job as publicist for the team easier. 

There’s only two problems. This particular football player was her first crush. 

The bigger problem: Matthew Hawkins was once engaged to her older sister. 

It’s been ten years since Ava has seen Matthew. He’s bigger, better looking, and best of all—completely single. Despite his history with her sister, the attraction between Ava and Matthew isn’t so one-sided anymore. 

It’s hot enough to burn down the entire city of Seattle. 

But this headline is far more complicated to write. And not just for the press or what it means for her family— because once her heart is involved, there’s no predicting the ending.

REVIEW:

Ava doesn't like when her man surprises her and she's unprepared, "sorry, that was an overreaction." I peeked at him through my spread fingers. "I just ... I'm wearing comfy underwear. I meant to change before I saw you." I think Ava gets all hot and bothered when Matthew is all sweaty and dirty, "you're all sweaty," she whispered. But she tilted her chin up, so it didn't bother her too much. I kissed her, pouring all my frustration into her lips, grabbing her ass with hands that might dirty her dress, but she pressed into me instantly." I liked this book, I am loving this series.

Well, let’s see ... I’m a wife and a mother. If the things that I write bring a smile to someone's face, then I've done my job. I am obsessed with Outlander (both the books and the show). I’m almost exclusively a romance reader, which means some people will never consider me a literary snob. If I could meet one historical figure, it would be Jane Austen. I received my Bachelors in Public Relations and worked in health care marketing before I had my babies. I hate Twitter. I do it, but I hate it. Also, if you want to get on my good side, bring me wine and I'll love you forever.
