USA Today Bestselling author Jami Davenport introduces the Seattle Steelheads football team with this sixth book in her Game On in Seattle sports romance series.A temporary marriage knocked him off his game, but love blindsided him.The daughter of one-time rock legends, Emma Maxwell is the good girl of the family, the dutiful sister, the doting aunt, and a dedicated employee in the family party-crashing business. Every Wednesday night at Karaoke, she indulges in her secret fantasy of being a singer. Yet the thrill of being on stage doesn't rival the thrill of a spontaneous liaison with the delectable, yet downtrodden, quarterback of the Seattle Steelheads, Tanner Wolfe, Emma's long-time crush. Tanner didn't see it coming--not any of it. He was blindsided--by his dysfunctional family, his plummeting career, and the one thing he least expected--by love. After photos with Emma go viral, Tanner is caught in a lie and tells a bigger one to get out of it. Now he's shoulder-pads deep in a temporary marriage while struggling to resurrect his disastrous career and reunite his broken family. As time passes, Tanner begins to wonder if temporary is good enough, but he's made a promise to Emma, one which has nothing to do with marriage vows and everything to do with her Nashville singing career and the end of their relationship. Will Tanner and Emma take the ball and drive for the win, or will they be permanently relegated to the sidelines as the clock runs out on their temporary marriage? While all books in this series can be read as standalones, you'll most likely enjoy reading the other books in the Game On in Seattle sports romance series:Book 1--Skating on Thin Ice (Seattle Sockeyes Hockey)Book 2--Crashing the Boards (Seattle Sockeyes Hockey)Book 3--Crashing the Net (Seattle Sockeyes Hockey)Book 4--Love at First Snow (Seattle Sockeyes Hockey)Book 5--Melting Ice (Seattle Sockeyes Hockey)Book 6--Blindsided (Seattle Steelheads Football)Book 7--Hearts on Ice (Seattle Sockeyes Hockey) Part of the 12 Christmas Romances to Melt Your Heart anthologyBook 8--Bodychecking (Seattle Sockeyes Hockey) AVAILABLE EARLY 2016… (mehr)

Oh, I so wanted to like this book. I really did. I mean, I LOVE sports romance. LOVE IT! However, I made it about 35% in and I just couldn't take it any more. Tanner is douchecanoe. Like, a big one. He is so callous and uncaring of everyone around him. And I HATE that Emma loves him. He has literally done NOTHING to deserve her love. So, its all based on looks which makes me CRAZY. So, in summary: Tanner=douchecanoe Emma=idiot. Me=disappointed ( )

An excellent read for the first half. Second half was bogged down by the heroine's new career drama, rather than concentrating on resolving the hero's own drama. Overall ok, but too much plot for one book. ( )

Emma Maxwell wants a singing career. Tanner Wolfe needs to revamp his image to save his job as the quarterback of the Seattle Steelheads. The two form an agreement to help both their careers.

I love, love, love this book! Ever since reading Melting Ice: Seattle Sockeyes Hockey (Game On in Seattle #5) I have been patiently waiting to read Emma and Tanner’s story, Blindsided. I was not disappointed.

Emma is an extremely likeable character. She is the sweetest of the Maxwell sisters. I liked that she finally goes after what she wants instead of doing what everyone expects of her.

I enjoyed discovering more about Tanner. It was interesting to hear his side of the story about what happened between him and his brother, Isaac (book 5). His personality is a lot different from Isaac’s. He wants people to like him. He is perceived as having confidence, however, in reality, he does not.

Despite what everyone else initially thinks, Emma and Tanner make a great couple. He had enamored her so long before they finally got together. They start out with an interesting arrangement. As they get to know one another, they complement each other well.

I thought Tanner’s agent was a little slimy. I did not like the man.

We already established in book five that Tanner’s dad in a piece of work, the man in evil. He makes an appearance in this story. I have chills just thinking about it, and not good chills.

I found it interesting that the Seattle Gridiron Group (lead by the Reynolds family - owners of the Sockeyes) bought the Stealheads. I love that the hockey and football players hang out together.

Blindsided is a fabulous addition to the Game On in Seattle Series. While it could be read as a standalone, both Emma and Tanner are introduced early in the series, and I feel you appreciate their characters more having read about them in the previous books.

Jami Davenport is a wonderful writer. She is fantastic with her character development and plots. She creates believable and heartfelt stories that are hard to put down. I cannot wait for book 7, Bodychecking.
