Zoe Parks learned the hard way that nothing sticks the first time. Everybody is always looking for the next best thing. That's how Zoe knew minutes before she was supposed to be married that the first engagement was all wrong. If the first engagement isn't right, how can the first marriage, especially if it happens when you're on what was supposed to be your honeymoon?

Alex Pedroza knows that being the new guy on the team means putting up with whatever the guys dish out. That's why Alex can't go home without the wife he thought he was going to have when he returns from the offseason. Can he convince the woman he married while trying to forget the one he didn't to come home and play the part just until the divorce is final, of course?

Bunt by J.C. Thompson is cute, quirky, and emotional with some heat thrown it. Zoe and Alex met, and it was only supposed to be a quick deal, but it didn't go quite according to plan. They are attracted to each other, but will they admit it or will they separate and give up on something real? You have to read to find out. 

I liked the story. It was a fun and easy read with great characters and a fun plot. If you like sports romances, you'll like this one. The book moved quickly and I kept smiling when I read it. That said, it felt like some parts were rushed and I wish those parts had more meat or had slowed down some. 3.5 stars and I suggest you one click it today. 
Bunt is a quick fun read that I would recommend to others. I would give it a 3.5 stars. It was a bit of an insta-love type romance but it had sports in it so that was a bonus.

Zoe and Alex met at a bar and both had a disaster of an ending to a previous relationship, so they make a decision to get married so they can get a failed marriage out of the way because the first doesn't last right?

What will happen when one decides they want to stay in the farce of a marriage can they convince the other that they are each other's forever?

Get to one clicking to see what happens!

I really enjoyed this story. This has all the elements you are looking for in a book, humor, sexiness, sadness, angst. The story flowed well with no hiccups.

Zoe is of the belief that nothing sticks the first time around. That the second time things are done is the correct ones. So when she is set to walk down the isle she has a moment of clarity and knows that it is all wrong. She becomes a run away bride and heads to her honeymoon alone.

Alex is supposed to be getting married but his fiancé left him. But because of all the harassment from his teammates he can't leave without actually being married.

He runs into Zoe at a hotel bar and concocts a crazy idea that they should get married and then have a quick divorce. This way it would help Zoe out with her "first marriage" so that the second one would be right, and he could save face with his teammates back home.

Only, neither of them bargained to become attracted and attached to the other. Will they keep up the pretense that this was just a deal and move on or will they make this quickie marriage a real one?

Definitely one click to find out.
