Spiked Love by Toni Aleo LIVE + REVIEW!



Friends to lovers hockey romance!
Spiked by Love by Toni Aleo is available now!



Allison Titov and Asher Brooks have been best friends their whole lives. Brought up together as part of the Assassins family, they might as well be related. But… Ally has never felt anything sisterly toward Asher.
In love with Asher since she was a teen, Ally has gone pro at keeping her feelings a secret. It’s been easy…as long as he’s stayed halfway across the country at college and she has a volleyball to slap her frustrations out on. But now, he’s home. And having his quick wit, heart-filling laugh, and adorkable smile so close is going to test her like never before.

After being dumped by his fiancée, Asher is at a loss what to do next. He craves stability, but with an unexpected kiss, Ally might as well have spiked Asher in the face with a volleyball. Now he’s faced with the dilemma of his life. Does he keep Ally in the friend zone, or does he take the ultimate risk for love?

If they’ve learned one thing growing up in the glow of hockey greatness, it’s that you can’t win it all if you don’t play the game. And by serving one hell of an ace into the middle of Asher’s safe little life, Ally is ready to claim victory.

STANDALONE!

Asher isn’t just some guy. He’s the guy.
Spiked by Love is the sixth book in the Bellevue Bullies series with tie-ins to the Assassins series as well. It can be read as a stand-alone, but these books are so character driven and interconnected I would recommend reading the other books first.

Allison Tivot and Asher Brooks have basically been best friends since birth. Not only are their moms close friends, but their dads played hockey for the Assassins. They have pretty much grown up together. Allison is in her last year of college and after graduating, Asher has moved back home to Nashville. The two pick up right where they left off like only best friends can. The more time they spend together, the more apparent it is that these two are much more than 'just friends'.

My favorite thing about these books is the family dynamic. It was great to be back with the Brooks family as well as the Tivots. I loved the scenes with the parents and siblings and I never get tired of reading about this group. Ally is one of those heroines I completely adored and I loved Asher lots too. Watching them go from best friends to realizing their real feelings for one another was a beautiful thing.

I've said it once and I'll say it a dozen more times I'm sure, but Toni Aleo writes the BEST sports romances. This was a little different as our heroine was a volleyball player and our hero wasn't very athletic, but I loved it just as much as the others. If you're looking for a steamy, sweet, and fun friends to lovers romance, I recommend picking this one up!

About the Author:

My name is Toni Aleo and I’m a total dork.
I am a wife, mother of two and a bulldog, and also a hopeless romantic.
I am the biggest Shea Weber fan ever, and can be found during hockey season with my nose pressed against the Bridgestone Arena’s glass, watching my Nashville Predators play!
When my nose isn’t pressed against the glass, I enjoy going to my husband and son’s hockey games, my daughter’s dance competition, hanging with my best friends, taking pictures, scrapbooking, and reading the latest romance novel.
I have a slight Disney and Harry Potter obsession, I love things that sparkle, I love the color pink, I might have been a Disney Princess in a past life… probably Belle.
… and did I mention I love hockey?
