Oh, how I love a story that makes me laugh, makes me cry (just a little) and makes me so happy for the HEA! Good Boy did all of that for me and more. 
 Jess Canning starts out in the story as a wedding planner. She's done an awesome job of planning her brother Jamie Canning's wedding to his partner Wes (the main characters in the Him / Us duo by the same authors). She's even sort of managed to keep her past one-nighter with her new brother-in-law's teammate Blake Riley a secret, in spite of Blake wanting to have another night of fun. But Jess is a little stressed out because she really wants to start a (another) new career and she's not sure how everyone is going to take it. 
 I love that these two just don't fall back into bed with each other. Blake really has to woo Jess back into his life and bed, and that's a huge part of the fun in this book. Blake's personality is effusive -- he's apt to get under your nerves at times and make you want to hug him until he calls "uncle" at others. But underneath all of that personality is a man who is keeping a secret and nursing a betrayal that all comes to head near the end of the book. 
 The slow development of Jess and Blake's relationship takes a few hits when the word gets out that Blake is dating his teammate's sister -- which in most guys is a big no-no! And he's got to first get Jess to admit they are more than just scratching an itch in bed. It's a lot of fun as Blake wears Jess down little by little with his humor and his character, because under all that talk, Blake is really just a great guy. 
 I'm looking forward to more in this WAGS (Wives and Girlfriends) series. There are some really cute scenes with the WAGS as they support their partners on the ice, and I love that some of the action happens at the venue. I loved every last thing about Good Boy and five stars really isn't enough to say how much. 
 So if you are into sports romances and love a cute, humorous tale that will have you smiling and laughing out loud, give Blake Riley a chance to make your day. You won't be sorry!
