"Never give up on your dreams." It's an easy mantra to recite, a hard phrase to forget-but not as easy to live up to. Life throws us all curve balls that sets us on a different course and pretty soon we miss out on our plans. In Getting Wound Up that's what happened to Eli. He'd given up and forged a new path filled with adult responsibilities but persuasive friends gave him the courage to take a second look and make his dream a reality. I am not a sports fan. I am a romance fan. Getting Wound Up mixes both to create a story that has more heart, charm and fun then one story should. This story takes the best of both authors Erin Nicholas and Jennifer Bernard and creates a story about the bonds of friendship, determination and love with a central theme that hits home. Seductive, entertaining and enjoyable. Was hard not to fall in love.
