Irresistible You is the first book in a brand spanking new series from Kate Meader, an author I just adore. I knew this book was going to be good, and boy oh boy was it ever! I have one thing to say to you all….REMY DUPRE *swoon*
Let me just set up the scene: three estranged sisters are thrown together when their NHL Hockey team owning father bites the dust. Harper is now in charge of the team and has her work cut out for her because they aren’t exactly the best team in the NHL and she is determined to make this team a winning one (girl, being a Philly fan here, I totally feel you on that one!) so she gets her hands on a superstar. A sexy Cajun superstar…Remy DuPre. What follows is a delicious push and pull of wit and attraction. But, because Ms. Meader writes some delicious heroes, I knew Harper wouldn’t be able to ignore Remy’s charm for long. I mean he peppers his sentences with French, for goodness sake! He can cook! He loves his family, especially his sisters! He’s a hockey player! How many more boxes in the “dream man” category can we check off?! So, even though she has very valid reasons for trying to stay away from Remy, including miserable past failed relationships and the whole “she’s a woman in a man’s world” thing, poor Harper didn’t stand a chance. The build up in their relationship was sublime and I loved watching them go from just working together to having so much more.
Adding to the delicious mix of Harper and Remy are Harper’s sisters and their own journey together. They have had a less than ideal childhood and now that they have no choice but to work together to save this hockey team, they will have to find the sister bond they never really shared. I absolutely loved that layer to the story. It really brought all these characters to life and now I can’t wait to see if each sister gets her own happy ever after.
Filled with colorful and interesting characters, tons of heat, and lots of emotion, this is one helluva kick off to a series I know readers will love. Irresistibly Yours is a total win! Thank you, Ms. Meader, for another fabulous read!

I’m a sucker for a good sports romance story, especially of the hockey variety, so when I was offered an advance copy of Kate Meader’s Irresistible You, it was a no-brainer to dive into the world of the Chicago Rebels and the three sisters who now own/run the team, the same women who not only have to save the franchise but also need to repair their relationships with one another. Both of those objectives seem impossible when Meader enlightens readers to the Rebels consecutive losing records and the bad blood amongst the sisters due to their father’s inability to love them all equally, placing impossible standards on one more so than the other, creating jealousy between the two oldest and not giving any of girls an opportunity to truly get to know one another without feelings of insecurity and heartbreak getting in the way.

While all three sisters have responsibilities when it comes to the Chicago Rebels organization, Harper Chase is at the helm, making the big decisions and working to prove not only her father wrong about her abilities as a female owner in a testosterone-filled sport but all of the naysayers who have already decided the Rebels don’t stand a chance at a playoff spot because they’re a team of misfits surrounded by too much estrogen, which can only lead to pansies and whiners on the ice.

The Rebels ‘road to the cup’ is beyond a cinderella story; in fact, it’s pretty much an impossible feat, but when Harper brings in a veteran center, shaking up the dynamics of the team as well as the front office, she proves the kind of risks she’s willing to take and believes that her knowledge and her leadership skills will get the job done, even if it means trading for the ‘unluckiest guy in the NHL’ and crossing lines that she sure as hell knows better than to cross.

Remy DuPre is not your typical hockey player, which makes him quite the appealing hero. Between his Cajun background, New Orleans charm, strong family bonds, and French pet names, Remy is one intriguing book boyfriend, and his appeal when it comes to the opposite sex makes even a hardass like Harper Chase vulnerable to his many positive attributes despite her no fraternization rule and her need to control her feelings, never allowing another man to make her weak.

Kate Meader does a great job of slowly building Harper’s ‘essential’ relationships, not only with Remy but also with her two remaining family members. Neither one of these bonds can instantly occur because there are many issues to contend with and without both sides committing to understanding the other one and allowing them the chance to see who they really are despite the preconceived notions and rumors, nothing will improve between Harper’s personal and professional relationship with Remy or her need to work with her sisters in order to achieve her goals with the Rebels as well as her potential happiness with Remy.

Because Irresistible You is told through both Remy and Harper’s perspectives, readers see beneath the characters’ facades, learning much more about them than they’re willing to give the other characters in the story. And, as things between Remy and Harper begin to change, we also understand Harper’s hesitancies when it comes to giving herself to Remy, and even though he adamant claims to the contrary, Remy makes her feel wanted and capable; he makes her acknowledge that she deserves to be loved and to be cherished despite her father’s treatment of her and he also helps her realize that she needs people in her life to lean on…people who are willing to step up for her and support her in every way possible.

Remy and Harper’s story is a great start to a brand new series from Kate Meader, and with the introduction of the other characters in the story, I can’t wait to see who Meader puts together and how the Chicago Rebels fair now that the team seems to be meshing and are no longer the unlucky losers of the NHL.

4.5 Poison Apples (The Fairest of All Book Reviews)

This was a fantastic story! I loved Harper so much and loved watching her truly grow through her struggles. And Remy, oh my! Cajun and a hockey player? Can you get any sexier? This man was just so incredibly charming and sweet, he oozes hotness. I loved them.

Harper and Remy are truly great characters. They had the perfect blend of animosity, playfulness, and heat. I freaking love their humor together, it was a bit sarcastic and a lot of fun. They seemed to be exact opposites but somehow they fit perfectly. Harper was just so focused and determined to prove herself in a mans world and she had so many obstacles in front of her. Remy knew what he wanted and then felt like he had the rug pulled out from under him and was trying to make the best of the situation he was in. Remy was written with a Cajun accent that I could totally hear in my head and it was just the perfect addition. It was subtle, not overdone, so it flowed well with the story. In the midst of their struggle’s there is the undeniable chemistry that have these two being pulled together. All of the conflict between the two just made for an incredible story.

Not only is there an amazing romance happening but there is also this beautiful, growing relationship with Harper and her sisters. These estranged, independent women come together to find their place together and really get to know each other. When they really open up and become vulnerable (because these ladies hold things close to the vest) it really made for some incredible moments.

The storyline was fantastic with a wonderful build. Very descriptive with great detail and development. This is told from dual POVs and I thought they both had great voices. I loved the different conflicts involved and the bits of drama. There was a really nice balance between everything and I loved the emotion involved too. I am really excited for more in this series because there were bits of foreshadowing that have me hooked.

Loved this so much. Kat Meader is a go-to author for me. I always know what I'm going to get... a solid, well rounded story with amazing characters, a fantastic build, a nice amount of drama and emotion and sizzling heat. 5 hot stars for Irresistible You!

Complimentary copy received for honest review.

There something about elite and cocky athletes that I find extremely attractive. Which is why sports romance books are some one of my favorites - especially books about hockey players. My love for all things arrogant is why I jumped at the chance to read Kate Meader's latest release, Irresistibly You.  New hockey players to drool other - hell yes!!

Here's the deal. The owner of the Rebels passed away and he left the team to his three estranged daughters, Harper, Isobel and Violet with Irresistibly You being Harper's story. She has worked for the team for years and had honestly hoped that her father would leave the team just to her because it's her dream to run the team. However, she's determined to make the best of the situation and to achieve the parameters of her father's will.

Step one was bringing Remy DuPre aka Jinx to the team - Harper believes that he is just what the team needs to turn the corner and to start winning. Remy been so close to winning the Stanley Cup several times during his career and with this being his last year playing hockey, he wants the cup so bad he can taste it. Unfortunately, Harper essentially ruined his chances of that by bringing him to a team who is currently in second to last place.

Putting these two together is amazing. Initially at odds with one another, their witty banter is fun and exciting. And they share this incredible chemistry and intense sexual attraction to one another - it's so much that they cannot ignore it. Even though it is inappropriate and could damage Harper's new position as the team owner.  As a reader you highly anticipate the moment when their secrets come out leaving them no other options but to face their feelings.

I freaking loved it.  I was consumed by their drama and I devoured their passionate story.  I cannot recommend reading it enough.

Seriously, I'm ready to buy jerseys and other Rebel's team swag. I am all in with this series. I think it's because the characters and not just their romance were enticing and engaging. I want to be friends with these people. I want to experience all the sisters falling in love. I want to know all their dirty little secrets.  Basically, I want more and I cannot wait for the next book from the Chicago Rebels.

Unfortunately, this read didn't work for me. I'm usually a big fan of sport-theme books, but this book fell short for me. The characters had no chemistry.

OMG, this book!

I loved Kate Meader's Hot in Chicago series and really liked her prequel novella for this one ( In Skates Trouble ) and was looking forward to seeing what Remy and Harper's story would bring, but the story itself? Blew my expectations right out of the water!

I absolutely loved both Harper and Remy. Ms. Meader did a great job of showing their POVs and giving very realistic reasons why they shouldn't be together, all while proving that staying apart shouldn't even be an option. When it looks like they really won't be able to have a life together, when Harper takes Remy's words and says they're not enough? I swear, I stopped breathing, it was so hard to read. Even knowing there HAD to be an HEA in the end didn't make it any less devastating to get through...how would she ever manage to make things okay again?

Of course she did, and did so brilliantly, I'm happy to report. And now we have middle sister Isobel's book to look forward to next...can't wait!

Rating: 4 1/2 stars / A

I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

3.5 - "I guess we got off on the wrong foot..." Stars!

Kate Meader kicked off the Chicago Rebels series really well with the novella; In Skate’s Trouble, and I was eager to see Harper Chase, the first of the Chase sisters to have her story told in Irresistible You.

IMAGE.

If you have read any of Kate’s previous books you will know that her characters give good snark and banter, and as much can be said for Harper and Remy, and I really liked them together as a couple. As you would expect for a man in the twilight of his career, being traded to the worst team in the league is not really where he wants to be playing his last season, as such he and Harper don’t get off to the best of starts.

"You’re a rebel now, and you play by my rules."

But behind the initial distaste and dislike, is a healthy dose of lust and attraction as well, and although neither of them are initially willing to act on it, it doesn’t take long for the lusty looks and dirty thoughts to morph into something else.

Of all the people for her libido to toggle on for, why did it have to be Remy DuPre...

Quite simply, because he was an absolute Southern Darlin’, and boy did he know how to take care of his woman, in every way.

"I’m not interested in bimbo trophies looking for a good time. My tastes run to women, real women who have a little more life experience than suffering through a hang nail."

The other dynamic in this book is the building of relationships between Harper, and her two sisters Isobel and Violet, all with the same father, none of them have really had a lot to do with each other, while he was alive, but in death his will ensures that they have to spend time together, whether they like it or not, and I liked that what started out as prickly and stilted, gradually started to grow into something more... Sisterly as the book developed and they got to know each other more.

"We’ve got ourselves a veritable United nations of Badass here."

And from that knowledge I am interested to see what stories Kate gives them, especially with the men that she has teamed them up with. I predict fireworks, fucking, snark and sparring a-plenty to come! Not too long to wait with Isobel’s book So Over You, due for release before the end of the year.

4.5 Stars! I find I either love sports romances or really don't like them at all. Thankfully, I loved this one! This series had interesting and well developed characters, chemistry and hot love scenes, a hockey plot that was well integrated into the book and on top of that a plot I could sink my teeth into!

Irresistible You is the first book in the Chicago Rebel series (I didn't read the prequel) that introduces the Chase sisters. Three sisters with different mothers but the same father who owned a hockey team. His oldest daughter, Harper has worked for her father but when he dies he gives the hockey team to all three sisters and gives them one year to take the failing team to the playoffs or the team is to be sold. Harper who has never been close to either sister is devastated but convinced she can make this happen.

Harper fires the general manager and assumes the role but it's hard to get respect as a female owner/manager in hockey let alone with two sisters as co-owners. Harper's first move is to bring in a veteran hockey player to turn her team around. This is where Remy "Jinx" DuPre comes in. He has always wanted to win the cup and this is his last chance as he plans to retire but his unwanted and unexpected trade throws all his plans out the window. Unfortunately, the Chicago team is nowhere close to the playoffs and he doesn't want anything to do with Haper and her team.

Harper and Remy's initial meeting is anything but cordial and this begins a relationship of snide comments, arguments and a ton of sexual chemistry. I really enjoyed watching this relationship develop into a friendship and then into more.

I really, really loved Remy! He was the perfect book boyfriend and did I mention Cajun? He's charming, and sweet but also a bit arrogant. Harper was the perfect match for him and she had so much depth. The more I learned about her the more I liked her and her take no prisoners attitude.
This book also introduces a lot of interesting secondary characters including both of Harper's sisters. While we get a HFN for Remy and Harper the overall plot isn't completed and I'm looking forward to how it all plays out in the next two books which will feature Harper's sisters.

A great start to a new series that's full of everything a sports romance could want - a hot, alpha hockey star, a snarky, touch heroine, an engaging plot, interesting secondary characters and just the right amount of steam!

A copy of this book was provided to me by NetGalley and the publisher with no requirements for a review. I voluntarily read this book and my comments here are my honest opinion

Kate Meader’s IRRESISTIBLE YOU is an excellent start to the Chicago Rebels series. I have been anxiously awaiting reading this book ever since I read IN SKATES TROUBLE (Chicago Rebels #.5) in the HOT ON ICE hockey anthology. I was not disappointed. I loved this book.

Three half-sisters are left a hockey franchise, the Chicago Rebels. The team is in second to last place. The sisters need to turn the Rebels around. The first book focuses on the oldest daughter, Harper Chase. She has been groomed to take over the team and is disappointed when her father’s will stipulated that all three sisters are left the team and have a year to make the playoffs or lose the franchise. I love the plot. It was interesting and full of obstacles.

I already liked Harper’s character in the prequel, IN SKATES TROUBLE. I was excited to hear her story. She is a strong character that is meant to run the Rebels. She is an excellent leader and knows her hockey. She brings in veteran center Remy “Jinx” DuPre to motivate the team. Understandably, DuPre was not happy to be traded to a team that was in second to last place. The two butt heads but can’t deny that they are attracted to each other. Of course, Harper being Remy’s boss complicates matters. They have great chemistry and are an interesting couple.

I enjoy Kate Meader’s writing style. The story flowed well. I was not able to put down the book. There were some good life lessons in the story. I loved the scene where Remy and Harper played video games against each other. IRRESISTIBLE YOU had a great ending. I look forward to reading middle sister, Isobel Chase’s story in the next book, SO OVER YOU. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

3.5 stars.

This was a pretty good book. This is Remy and Harper's story. Harper's father owned and ran an NHL Hockey team, the Chicago Rebels. When he died, he left the team to all three of his daughters. Harper, who had been working as his right hand, was upset that she had to share control of the team. She and her sisters all had Daddy issues and also issues with each other because of his unequal treatment of them. The team has been performing horribly the past few seasons and Harper is determined to bring it around. She trades for Remy to join their team in hopes he can unite them for a playoff berth. But Remy is not happy about the trade. He wanted to finish the final season in his career in Boston and keep up the momentum he had going their with a run for the Stanley Cup. Sparks fly between them when Remy refuses to even try to play well on his new team. He blackmails Harper into promising she will trade him in the middle of the season back to Boston for him to actually start playing to his potential in the meantime. Harper reluctantly agrees. The team actually does start to come together and improve with Remy on their side. And Remy and Harper's sparks soon turn to a sizzle as they spend more time together. But Harper is reluctant to be with Remy because of the fact that she owns the team, not to mention that he will be leaving in a few months. Still, they can't stay apart and they fall for each other. Will they be able to make it work between them so they can have the happy ever after they deserve?

Overall, this was a good romance. I loved the raging Cajun that was Remy. He was so so charming, laid back and smooth. He waited to find a girlfriend or get romantically involved because he wanted to be able to retire from hockey in one more year, get married and be a stay at home dad. Swoon! Harper was a little bit harder for me to like. She was a bit of a ball buster. She also had some secrets from her past that kept her from wanting to get close to any men. I understood why she was the way she was and I did feel bad for her, but her actions definitely annoyed me. I did appreciate her few moments of vulnerability but I needed more. Remy was a little frustrating at times too in that he let Harper determine their relationship. I wanted him to be more aggressive in pursuing her and persuading her to be with him. I also wanted more resolution in the end, more firm plans for the future and a longer epilogue. Also, the third person POV is not my favorite. Still, I did enjoy this book. There were some very sweet and sexy parts. The writing was excellent and the story was interesting and unique. I am definitely looking forward to continuing the series with Harper's sisters books coming in the future.

The Chicago Rebels series is about three sisters, relatively estranged, who inherits a national hockey team from their emotionally neglectful father. Irresistible You is the first book and it is shaping up to be an addicting series. It's mostly about the women, these sisters, who obviously have daddy issues but it is ultimately their story about overcoming stereotypes especially in the testosterone fueled NHL that captivates readers. Harper, Isobel and Violet, will definitely intrigue and charm us. While Harper and Remy's burgeoning relationship has more unexpected waves to navigate but it definitely delivers on the sizzle, sweetness and real life issues that makes their romance worth reading.

Irresistible You introduces readers to the team and to Harper Chase, eldest of the three, one third owner of the Chicago Rebels aka the underdog team in the NHL. When she gets her inheritance, she starts shaping the team how she envisioned it and to ultimately get a lot of credence as a league owner. But when she recruits Remy Dupre she really gets more than she bargains for. Remy on the other hand is getting older and is ready to retire. But first he needs to win the Stanley Cup and this is his year to win it. Or so he thought. That was before he was traded off to the worst team in the league, The Chicago Rebels. Now his dream is starting to fade away because there is no way even he could get that team up and running for the cup. So he strikes a bargain with the delectable Harper, he gets to be traded to a winning team after three months and he would make sure that the Chicago Rebels will be a cohesive and united team. But sparks had been flying long before the bargain has been set and these two find themselves navigating the very murky waters of a beginning relationship. When an inkling that their relationship may come out in the open, Harper realizes she has more to lose than what she bargained for and Remy may lose the woman he loves.

Irresistible You is definitely an apt title, it is definitely an irresistible story.

Clifford Chase, hockey legend, total jerk and owner of the Rebels NHL hockey team, has died and left his 3 daughters, who are estranged half sisters, to run his team. Not without stipulations of course.

Harper Chase has lived in her father’s shadow in his business, not allowed to make any decisions. Sparks fly (and not just angry ones) when Harper goes to confront Remy DuPre, recent unwilling trade to her team.

Harper is small in stature, big on backbone. She has had to make her way in a male dominated business. She is intelligent, business savvy, stands her ground and goes after what she wants - except in love. She comes off a little cold a few times in the beginning due to past experiences, but warms up as the book progresses.

Remy is Cajun hotness. He is respectful, well mannered, charming, and funny. He is especially understanding and very patient with Harper. He never gives up even when she resists. Loved him!!!

The story did drag a bit with Harper’s angst over Remy being a player on her team. However, it didn’t keep me from rooting for her to figure it out.

This book does a great job of introducing us to all the characters in the upcoming books without it being overwhelming. There’s just enough information to be intriguing and leave me wanting more. This is my first book by this author and I look forward to the rest of this series!

'''You miss 100 percent of the shots you never take. - Wayne Gretzky'''

Remy DuPre, Boston's star center and the Cajun they call Jinx because he is the unluckiest guy in the NHL, isn't happy. He has been traded and his new team screws with his last chance of winning the coveted Stanley Cup. The Rebels are the league's second worst hockey team and their new owner, Harper Chase, is now interrupting his farewell bash, busting his balls and dragging him by his ears to his new home Chicago.

Harper's sole focus is to prove to herself and the world that her late father was wrong saying that a woman should never lead a hockey team. Of course, that she has to share responsibility with her two estranged sisters doesn't improve her mood. Add to that her decision to get Remy DuPre on her team might prove to have not been a good one - he doesn't live up to her expectations and she knows he does it on purpose - and she feels immense pressure in this world that is ruled by testosterone. Harper strikes a deal with the Cajun: He plays his heart out until the trading deadline comes up, then she'll let him go to whatever team he wishes to follow his goal to win the cup before he retires.

Remy and Harper got off on the wrong foot but from the start there is an undeniable sizzling attraction neither of them welcomes. But as it is with undeniable chemistry at some point something has to give and Harper enters a relationship she isn't entirely comfortable with. She is under scrutiny in this male dominated sport - she will be judged and if it becomes public knowledge that the owner of The Rebels fraternizes with a player she would lose the little ground she gained in with the acquisition of Remy DuPre.


Harper is a complicated character. Her daddy issues make you feel for her on one hand. She has a lot to prove, is determined and stubbornly focused on proving her dad wrong who didn't show her a lot of kindness and respect.

'''She had never been a prize before, only the consolation.'''

She is so starved for love and Remy is the perfect partner for her. He is affectionate and sweet and has no problem to show his feelings. It kills her that her pride stands between her and her love and this is where I got a leeeeettle bit annoyed with her. It just took a little too long for Harper to come around. She always thought she needed to do it on her own, there only was either-or and she never fought for Remy. Still, she was a strong and likable heroine and I admired her for her bite. When she found her courage and took the leap I was happy that she appreciated Remy for the wonderful, big-hearted man that he was.

"I’ve never met anyone who needs to be held and loved as much as you do, Harper. Well, it so happens that you’ve got a man here with strong arms made to keep you safe. With so much love inside him that it’s just busting to get out. It’s all for you, minou. No one else I’d rather give it to.” - Remy

If you want to meet a swoon-worthy, dreamy, charming and super-hot hero, pick this book up now. Remy is pretty much my most favorite Kate Meader-hero. He has the typical Southern charm, is very laid back but you still know he cares, shows his polite respect for women by standing when they enter a room, without fail. I loved his family and how he adored them. He was a beautiful character. I adored that he had no problems showing and voicing his feelings, he empowered Harper and made her feel special. Remy is a sensual and sweet man, smart enough to know when to push and when to let it go.

***When your happiness was someone else’s happiness, then that was love.***

The main character's banter is typical for Kate Meader - hilarious, smart and highly entertaining. The side characters, and I mean all of them, sneaked into my heart and settled there firmly. Harper's sisters are wonderful and I loved seeing their relationship improve and becoming closer. Remy's influence on the team's morale was also beautiful to see. He really made a difference and I particularly liked Bren St. James, who will be paired with one of Harper's sisters and I can't wait to get my hands on that book! They both promise to have an interesting back story as well as Harper's other sister.

With every new book Kate Meader reinforces her position as one of my favorite authors. Her combination of flawless writing, lovable characters, entertaining banter and sexy chemistry totally do it for me. Grab this if you love sport romances - I promise you'll have a good time!


Irresistible You is the first installment in The Rebels series and can be read as a standalone.

This was a fun hockey romance, my favorite of sports. It starts off with Remy being kind of a jerk, but he grew on me. He's ready to retire, and he gets traded as a last ditch attempt for Harper to save her team. Harper and her sisters were left the Rebels when their father died. When Harper meets Remy, she's kind of knocked over by his testosterone. But she has a good head for the business of running the team. There are some great interactions between Harper and her sisters. For hockey fans, you'll be excited to have a new team to root for. I chose to review this book via Netgalley.

I have read several of Kate Meader's books, which I really enjoyed so I figured I would give this new series a try. I am glad to say that I am not dissapointed. This could also be because it's a book about hockey...and sports themed books are a weakness of mine...especially hockey and baseball :P

It's hard to go wrong with HOT hockeyplayers running around with their sticks :P

Harper and het two (estranged) sisters have inherited a (losing) hockey team, the Chicago Rebels, to be precise. There are some stipulations though. The team has to win, or they will lose said team. This means that Harper and the half-sisters she doesn't really know, have to work together to turn the team around.

Harper is not about to give up though...she wants to make it work. She wants to prove herself.

Harper acquires Remy from another team in the hopes that he will help turn the team around. Remy himself however isn't too happy with the transfer. The only way he will help her (and the team) out, is if she agrees to trade him back to a better team, in a few months. Since Harper agrees, because...well what else can she do.

The chemistry between these two was off the charts right from the beginning....and it won't be denied for long. Harper has a rule about getting involved with the players and Remy is supposed to leave eventually....also she is technically his boss. But the heart (and body) wants what it wants and fighting their attraction is pointless.

I really enjoyed this one. It was funny and swoon-worthy and HOT. Remy was really awesome... I love me some Cajun men :P. I had some issues with Harper sometimes seeming a bit cold...but I also got why she was the way she was. This book can be shelved under so many different themes... opposites attract, forbidden love, sports, friends to lovers..

All in all these two were really great together and, ..did I mention.. HOT ??

The supporting characters were great and I can't wait to read more about them in the next books.

My reviews are posted on Dirty Books Obsession

This book had me smiling, laughing, melting and swooning with every turn of the page. I was hooked from the beginning. I thought there was a great pace and build throughout, as well as excellent character development as the two main characters come together. I loved the writing, and the in depth cast of characters. You've got hunky hockey players galore.
I loved Harper Chase and Remy Dupre so much. They had a nice amount of tension and angst. Great animosity and verbal sparring that turned into really hot chemistry. It was fun, playful and I could feel the want and need between the two.
Remy Dupre, is the perfect, smart ass, sexy bad boy. I loved his New Orleans drawl and the fact that he spoke French. How could a women not appreciate every thing he had to offer. He sure appreciated Harper Chase, and all she had to offer, with her beauty, luminous skin, and a mouth that could tempt a man to forget everything that was good for him.
But Harper Chase had plenty of reasons for not wanting a relationship, too much to lose as far as her reputation as a owner in the league, too busy, career focused and she would never allow another man to hurt her. But her attraction to Remy was crazy undeniable, his touch set her skin on fire, his voice was like pure warm honey in her veins and he would not leave her alone.
So what happens when Harper cant say no to Remy any longer? Will she trade him before it comes to that? You won't believe ... sorry you are going to need to read to find out how this ends. Loved it!

This is my first Kate Meader read and it won't be my last.I'm a big fan of sports romance so you can imagine how excited I was to start this one!Another thing that was getting my attention to this story is the forbidden romance!

I really enjoyed Irresistible You, the set up was perfect ,both characters were lovable,even though I wasn't a big fan of Remy from the beginning ,plus it was fun and sexy story.

It takes a little bit to like Remy but once you learn him better you fall in love with his personality! He is sweet and super hot.Harper was also a great heroine.There is a great build up to their relationship.

Overall it was a great story,I'm excited for the next book!

Review by Amanda for Love Romance Books

I was asked by the author for an honest review.

This is not a stand alone novel. There is a larger storyline that I assume will play out over the course of more books, although the point at which Irresistible You ends is a good place to pause the story, but I'm definitely looking forward to the next book.

This is the first book I've read by Kate Meader but I loved her writing style. It was definitely my kind of funny. I'd recommend Irresistible You for a light, funny read (not a tear jerker).

I love a good hockey romance. This one was sexy and I enjoyed reading about a heroine who was strong, and determined to not let anything get in her way. This book wasn't without the steamy and charismatic hockey player, who turns this woman world upside down. It was an interesting and humorous take on a romance between a strong willed gm and her new acquisition. The back story played a lot into the story and it had its appeal for sure. I would recommend this one to any sports romance lover.

**4 Stars**
This was my first book by Kate Meader and it wont' be my last. I loved everything about Remy and Harper's story. They didn't want to be attracted to each other, but sometimes you just can't help what happens. Watching these two both try to get what they want was comical at times and overall sexy, because they were resisting the one thing that they both wanted, each other. The chemistry between these two is off the charts and you can't help but love watching them figure out what is going on between them. Harper doesn't want to give in because he's her employee and Remy doesn't want to give in because he doesn't want to stay on the team, he wants the cup. This had to be one of my favorite hockey books of 2017. I can't wait to see what else Kate brings us in the series.
