Jensen Monroe is a unicorn. As handsome as any model, as polite as can be, a goalie of unmatched skill, and the best friend anyone could ask for. But he longs for a particular special someone to make his life complete. He’s been in love with Wren since he was a teenager, but as his best friend’s sister, she’s always been off-limits.
Wren Lemiere has prided herself on being a love ’em and leave ’em girl her whole life. She’s all about equal opportunity in the battle of the sexes. Why should guys like her brother and his best friends get to be the only ones allowed to play the dating game? One wrong move, however, and she finds herself in violation of her own rules.
In need of a fake husband and baby daddy for her unexpected bundle of joy, Wren finally accepts Jensen is the logical one to ask for help. Except he has a counteroffer…one with so many strings attached, they may just find themselves wrapped up in ties that bind. Forever.
Twelve books in and i still feel myself falling hard for each Assassins book. In the Crease is the latest full length standalone novel of this fantastic sports romance series.
In this book we get the story of Wren and Jensen. Wren is a ball busting girl, i loved her kick ass attitude. But behind her attitude she's broken especially when it comes to matters of the heart. Always with the douchebags of the world and her last one was the king of all douchebags. After getting the life altering news that she is pregnant. She soon finds herself more alone than ever before. The father wants nothing to do with her or the baby. (I so wanted to jump in my kindle and nut punch the sperm donor) Plenty of people go it alone but the problem Wren finds herself in, is because of her inheritance. Her grandfather stipulation is that she not be unwed and pregnant before her 3oth birthday!!
Jensen is the goalie for the Nashville Assassins. He's the all round good guy. He loves big and with his whole heart. He's had his heart broken in the worst way in the past. He's the relationship type of guy, doesn't do meaningless one night stands. This is also because the one girl he's loved since childhood doesn't see him. But he's always there waiting for the day that she see's him and the love he's always held for her.
"Let me be your first kiss - and your last"
When Jensen see the chance to help his one true love out he jumps feet first at the chance. He's going to convince her to open her heart and show her they can truly have their own HEA. Jensen holds nothing back, well he does, but there's the sweetest of reasons and it just builds the attraction between them to off the charts hot! He'll do anything and everything he can to get Wren to see him and to make her realise that she is his world.
The love Jensen showed Wren had my heart soaring. I truly laughed, cried, swooned and want to punch and slap up side the head throughout this read. Along the way of their journey to HEA their best friends and family are there to either to make a joke to relive some tension or protect those that are theirs. And at about 95% of the read i must have looked like a demented woman when i shouted out yes and fist pumped the air. If you have read this books you'll know exactly why if not one word Wells!!
I for one NEVER want to see this series to end!

Brie snickered as Vaughn went on. “I know this is going to be hard. Like, really hard on you. But, buddy, I’m sorry to say, we bought a house.”
Jensen just stared back at him. “Okay? Why is this hard?”
“Because you’re not moving with us.”
He rolled his eyes. “Jo, we haven’t lived together for six months since you moved in with Brie.”
“I know, but we were across the hall.”
Jensen laughed. “I’ll be fine without you guys—”
“Now, I know this comes as a shock, but we’re having a baby, and we need space for us and the baby.”
“I know—”
“Now, Jenny, I know this is going to be difficult, putting space between us—”
“You know we lived apart for years, right?”
But Vaughn went on. “Just know I will always and forever love you as my brother, and nothing will change. Not the space, the new ball and chain, or the baby.”
“Are you done?”
Brie apparently thought this was hilarious since she was basically choking she was laughing so hard. Which wasn’t anything new. Vaughn might be an idiot, but he was a funny one. As always, Vaughn was unaffected as he said, “We’ll never be done, Jenny, never.”
“Okay,” Jensen said, rolling his eyes again. “Listen, this is awesome. I’m happy for you guys, and let me know when we need to start moving stuff.”
“You’re such a good man,” Vaughn proclaimed before clapping his hands together. “This weekend good for you?”
Laughing, he just shook his head at Vaughn’s antics. “Yeah, man.”
“Thanks, Jensen.”
He smiled over at Brie. “Anytime.”
Rolling his eyes, he went back to eating as a grin played on his lips. He wanted nothing more than for his friend to grow and be in love. Brie was that for Vaughn. They were moving and having a kid, and it was great. Vaughn needed that. So did Wells, who was getting married the following month. Both his best friends were living life, happily and to its fullest. Meanwhile, Jensen was stuck.
He didn’t know how it happened, or even why, but it had. He wasn’t interested in anyone he met, and he didn’t just want to fuck around. He wanted someone to love him for him. The quiet, weird guy in the corner. The one who would lay down his life for anyone he loved. He had redeemable qualities, but for some reason, no one wanted them. They just wanted to have sex.
He didn’t want Netflix and chill; he wanted Netflix and breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, and more.
Hmm, he should copyright that.
Taking a huge bite of his chicken, he felt his phone start to vibrate. He pulled it out, seeing that it was a text from Wren, as he chewed. Like always when she texted him, his heart sped up, and his palms went clammy as a lump formed in his throat. Or maybe that was the chicken, he wasn’t sure. Either way, he slid the notification over so that his text thread with her opened up before he read her message.
Wren: Are you free anytime this week?
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?
