Elle Kennedy

He knows how to score, on and off the ice...

Allie Hayes is in crisis mode. With graduation looming, she still doesn't have the first clue about what she's going to do after college. To make matters worse, she's nursing a broken heart thanks to the end of her longtime relationship. Wild rebound sex is definitely not the solution to her problems, but gorgeous hockey star Dean Di Laurentis is impossible to resist. Just once, though, because even if her future is uncertain, it sure as heck won't include the king of one-night stands.

It'll take more than flashy moves to win her over...

Dean always gets what he wants. Girls, grades, girls, recognition, girls...he's a ladies man, all right, and he's yet to meet a woman who's immune to his charms. Until Allie. For one night, the feisty blonde rocked his entire world―and now she wants to be friends? Nope. It's not over until he says it's over. Dean is in full-on pursuit, but when life-rocking changes strike, he starts to wonder if maybe it's time to stop focusing on scoring...and shoot for love.

I think this might be my fave Off-Campus. Dean walked into my life and held the reins. The steam and spice in this book are off the chaaarts. Great to take your mind off the daily shitshow that is life during a global pandemic.

These books just bring me so much joy. This one had a bit more sad stuff which broke my freaking heart but I just love Elle Kennedy as an author. This series is my new go to for comfort.

Elle Kennedy once again has made me pull an all nighter to finish yet another one of her books. I could not put this book down. Dean was one of the characters I feared I would not enjoy but proved to be one of the characters I enjoyed the most. His relationship with Allie was amazing. 

There was one particular P¡nk filled scene that will forever be a favorite of mine. Elle Kennedy just knows how to get me swooning over a fictional character!

Would've given this book 4 stars if it weren't for Winston and little Dean

Loved this book, I enjoyed reading about dean and Allie! Knowing dean is a f boy, I was nervous that he would be insufferable to read about. I found him quite endearing and found their story together sweet. I’m loving this series and the cliffhanger for tuckers story is so exciting!

DEANALLIE DEANALLIE DEANALLIE DEANALLIE SO TRUE!!!

Jasmine

WOW WOWWWWW!! I never wanted this book to end but sadly a few hours later it was over :'( I didn't think it was possible for me to love another book in this series like I did with The Deal but damn did this book ever change my mind! I was blown away by how much Dean captured my heart and after two books of seeing Dean from everyone else perspective, it was fantastic to finally get to see who he really is. There really is so much more under the surface than everyone thinks and it was amazing to see all sides of him. Dean Heyward-Di Laurentis has forever earned a spot among my book boyfriends, I love this man so much! Also, Allie & Dean sure make one extremely sexy, fun, spontaneous, & heart melting couple! They were such a pleasant surprise and their personalities meshed so well together. There were just so many scenes that made me laugh, smile, and lose my damn mind over!! <33

DEAN AND ALLIE?? "i need dean" oh ill literally kms i love them ! sean flop

I love this book—the whole Off-Campus Series actually. 

Dean and Allie are meant for each other, no doubt of it. They have a fun, sentimental and sexy relationship going on which I LOVE.

Do read this book and the whole Off-Campus series.

Allie Hayes est en mode crise. Elle n'a toujours pas la moindre idée de ce qu'elle va faire après avoir obtenu son diplôme, pourtant la date fatidique approche à grands pas. Et comme si cela ne suffisait pas, elle tente de se remettre d'une rupture qui lui a brisé le coeur. Ce qui est certain, c'est que la solution à ses problèmes ne passe pas par une histoire sauvage avec la star de hockey Dean Di Laurentis ! Et pourtant, il est tellement difficile de lui résister. Mais Allie a décidé que même si son avenir est incertain, une seule chose est sûre, elle ne sera pas le prochain coup d'un soir du hockeyeur. Il va falloir qu'il en fasse un peu plus que d'habitude pour la faire céder. Dean obtient toujours ce qu'il veut. Des filles, des bonnes notes, des filles, la gloire, des filles... C'est un homme à femmes, et il n'a jamais rencontré une fille qui reste insensible à son charme. Jusqu'à Allie. En une nuit, la blonde fougueuse a fait basculer son petit monde. Et elle lui dit qu'elle veut être son amie ! Non. C'est lui qui décide du déroulement des choses et il n'est pas prêt à bousculer sa façon de vivre. Cette fille-là va faire tourner la tête du volage Dean, au point qu'il se demande s'il n'est pas temps d'arrêter d'enchaîner les amourettes pour se jeter dans le grand amour.

The score

allie & dean’s story was so fun! I did have a hard time initially getting into it but elle kennedy didn’t fail to surprise me so early into the book that I was then hooked immediately. I was smiling and giggling throughout this entire book hehehe. so cute. loving the off campus series!

characters were cute, likable and well-rounded but there was just a little too much meaningless sex. the plot seemed a little aimless in the middle - there was no conflict or character building - it was just them doing it... meh overall it was okay at best. (2016)

This was so good omg. I literally can’t get enough of these books. Allie and Dean were so cute. And this book let me tell you... this book got steamy, and I loved every second of it. I’m in love with Dean Di-Laurentis. But I mean who wouldn’t fall in love with that man.

Also, this was definitely my favourite of the series followed by ‘The Deal’.

Re-Read 30/11/2020:
I still love this book so so so much. It's 1000% one of my favourite books of all time. If anyone asks me what my comfort read is, my reply will always be this book, I just love it too much. Something about a huge player finally finding his girl that will change his ways and make him fall in love. It just makes me all fuzzy and makes my heart flutter. I also love it when it starts off as a fling/friends with benefits and ends up into something more. I want to name every single part that I loved about this book but I will be here all day. Let's just say I loved the ENTIRE thing. Not one part did I not enjoy. 

Dean Di-Laurentis you have my entire heart. I don't think I've loved anyone more than Dean. He is perfect. And I felt like Allie and Dean were perfect for each other and worked so god damn well. I loved their relationship. 

I also love how this book deals with harder topics like grief whilst still being such an enjoyable read. Elle Kennedy, you're a god damn angel for coming up with these stories. I am entirely grateful haha. I wouldn't know what I'd do without them. 

Will I re-read this again? Yes... probably a million more times. 

Anyway, I've said it before, I'll say it again. If you haven't read this series yet what are you doing, go read it now.

Re-Read 31/07/2021:
Still one of my favourite books ever. DEAN OMFG stop stealing my heart. My ultimate comfort read. I will be reading again sometime. Read it if you haven’t.

This entire series has been a surprise for me! I normally don't like anything sports, but this series has me hooked! I loved the leads in this, very straightforward and honest. Great communication. HOT AF. I loved it!

HI BOOKLOVERS,

I LOVE DEAN! I LOVE ALLIE. 

I think I love them more than I love the second and first book. It was fun to read and the drama is just enough, not too much, just okay. I won't review much but if you like Rom-Com this is the best book for you. I love Dean's Point of View it was smart and funy. 

Highly Recommended! :) 

xoxo. Kath!

Lover of Romance 

This review was originally posted on Addicted To RomanceThere was quite a bit to admire about The Score. I don't know why it has taken me so long to return to this series after reading The Deal, but Elle Kennedy handles this genre so well!! The story sets off when our heroine Allie, has recently broken off with her boyfriend. When her ex can't let go, she is offered  a place to stay with her friends apartment with a known player of the worst sort, hockey star Dean Di-Laurentis. Dean is the type of man that loves his scores of women at his disposal. But from the moment he shares one night of sexy with Allie, he wants her more than ever. But Allie doesn't do casual anything, 

What was most fun about The Score, was seeing how well these two got along with each other. They have some fun bantering moments that leaves you with a smile on your face. At the beginning, Allie is very resistent to Dean, and quite frankly Dean TOTALLY deserves it because he is one playboy. But we see how much he has to work for it, and the way that Allie puts him in his place. I really admired the way that this author wrote this story and it turned me upside down and sideways. I honestly couldn't put this one down. The romance was tender and sweet at times and yet had moments of wild emotion and passion. Its a story you will fall in love with and cheer this couple on as they stumble their way on their HEA. The Score is a powerfully written romance with sensuality and vivid emotion.
