Summary: See Jane scores with humour and sass!
Comment: Fanatics of Rachel Gibson will realize that See Jane Score is a continuation of her deviant style of putting polarized opposites together. Wasn't her last effort, Lola Carlyle Reveals All - an unbelievable escapism of love between a swimsuit model and military spy?
In See Jane Score, Rachel Gibson dumps the stereotypical fantasy and points out - get real. Her female protagonist, Seattle Times Reporter Jane Alcott is assigned to the native Chinooks Hockey Team on a Sports Tournament coverage. She is immediately repudiated by the team because of their supersitition: women are jinx. Her drab black apparel and small breasts doesn't score well for the notoriously aloof but hunky golden player Luc Martineau either. It is before long they got her boot out - only to change their fickle minds when her departure well-wishing blessed them with a triumph.
See Jane Score is immediately a hysterically hilarious romp with Jane's sardonic wits and encounters especially in the locker room. Ms. Gibson 's scrupulous research on hockey sculpts the pulsating games and camaderie between the players through witty jargons, inside jokes as well as the pressure and sweat.
In all its slapstick laughter and wicked digs, See Jane Score is also a romance with dimensions. Jane considers herself a fraud being an anonymous sex columinst for a porn mag and a vulnerable girl at heart; Luc fears love as much as he is clueless to taking care of his adolescent sister Marie. Ms. Gibson injects a dose of searing intimacy and honesty towards her characters to make the Opposite + Tension and fairy-tale formula work to her favour. They are refreshingly matured and open about their feelings. Let's not forget the sex either. Ms. Gibson scores a hat-trick on that one too.

Summary: What a funny book
Comment: I have NEVER laughed so hard when reading romantic fiction before this book. Rachel Gibson is a great writer and I lost myself in this book. She is so descriptive in her settings and so down-to-earth in her dialogue that I actually felt I was there in every scene.
I would highly recommend this book and will continue to buy everything she's ever written.

Summary: A good read if you can stand Hockey
Comment: Overall I liked this book. I think that the quips between the Jane and Luc were funny and their romance was hot! However, in the beginning, Ms. Gibson introduces the sport of hockey to the reader through Jane's eyes and I found that to be a little boring. I wanted to see more plot development between the two leading characters in the beginning, and not so much hockey. All in all this was a good book, but Truly, Madly Yours is much better.
