S J Tilly

My friends have convinced me. No more hockey players. With a dad who is the Head Coach for the Minnesota Sleet, it seemed like an easy decision. My friends have also convinced me that the best way to boost my fragile self-esteem is through a one-night-stand. A dating App. A hotel bar. A sexy-as-hell man, who's sweet, and funny, and did I mention, sexy-as-hell... I fortified my courage and invited myself up to his room. Assumptions. There's a rule about them. I assumed he was passing through town. I assumed he was a businessman, or maybe an investor, or accountant, or literally anything other than a professional hockey player. I assumed I'd never see him again. I assumed wrong.

Book Two of the Sleet Series

Sleet Sugar

I was a little bummed that she couldn’t just sense my presence the moment I walked into the room. I’ve read enough romance novels, something else I don’t ever plan on admitting, but they all talk about how the main characters just know when the other enters a room. I guess we still need to work on our connected energy.

I love Meghan, but she’s a loose cannon. I can’t allow her to talk to him, especially like this. Her head lulls to the side, and I’m able to quickly snatch my phone back.

I stare at the screen for a second trying to think of something to say. Making up my mind, I hang up again.

My phone rings with a local number. I used to not answer calls I don’t know, but now that I have new clients, I pick up.

Another one that I couldn't take the smile of of my face.

The chapters about this haunted theme park of whatever it was were the best haha I would've died before I even set foot in the first mansion.

Read this in less than a day. Found it hard to put down. Found this better than book 1, but once again, don’t feel like the characters act their age. BUT the possessiveness and protectiveness are *

I’d call this one a 🌶🌶🌶.5. Some parts felt a little quick, but all and all a fun weekend read, with some ✨spice✨. The only thing that bothered me was NHL was spelled wrong and I was like “ma’am this is a book about the national hockey league what are you doing here.”

This was fun. A good sequel. I guess I like hockey men now lol

Help! I've fallen for this series and I can't stop thinking about it. Love love love… rtc … Zach reminds me of my boyfriend 😭😍 the alpha male but yet super sweet... huge teddy bear inside. YES. UGHHHH.

Its so romantic. I loved Izzy so much, the start of the relationship reminded me so much of my own. I loved how this has turned into the diary of all the friends... reminded me a lot of sex in the city with a mix of like the show girlfriends. Great inclusion of the side characters and the introduction of new ones. I loved how SJ Tilly slowly paves the path for new stories about the friends. Meghan is so freaking hilarious! And Izzy is just so relatable to me in character. Zach is absolutely dreamy.. I AM OBSESSED.. helpppp!

I am in awe with the writing by SJ Tilly! Definitely adding her to my favs. The story was well structured, the spice was absolutely perfect, the combination of the characters and the plot were so well routed. I loved absolutely everything about this!

Huge thanks to the author for sending this my way!

This book gave me a serious sugar rush!

The Sleet series is the gift that keeps on giving. While in Sleet Kitten we followed the story of Katelyn and Jackson, this time we focus on Izzy, the Coach’s daughter, and the one night stand that turns into a whirlwind romance with the Sleet team’s newest member, Zach. I didn’t think it was possible to top Jackson and Katelyn, but the woman I’ve become reading about Zach and his Sugar laughs at the person I used to be. So far, Zach and Izzy are definitely my favorites.

Their personalities were perfectly complimentary, with Izzy being the sweetest girl and Zach being the bad boy panty-dropper that steals my heart within 0.5 seconds of page time. I admit that I loved the way the author used the bad boy trope though. Despite appearances, Zach isn’t one to fool around, and his determination to win his girl’s heart made him all the more attractive in my eyes. The romance starts with a bang, but the build-up to a real relationship was slow, agonizing and enjoyable to the max! There were some truly hilarious situations in this book, and the banter between Izzy and Zach was the cherry on the top. Bonus points: we got some incredible curvy girl rep in this one, and I’m so thankful for that! 

The only reason I’m not giving a full 5 stars is because I was a little unconvinced by the “fall before the happily ever after” moment typical of every rom-com worthy of its name. It’s not that it didn’t make sense, but I felt some reactions were a bit of a stretch. However, it does resolve quickly so little harm done. 

Now I’m very excited to dive into the final book of the series, Sleet Banshee, which will follow my favorite vixen, Meghan! We get some glimpses of what her story might be throughout this book and in the epilogue…and I have a feeling this one will be my favorite of the trilogy!

I didn’t think I could love a couple more than Jackson and Katelyn, but….

I love Zach. And I adore Izzy. Her sweetness mixed with his gruffness made this book soooo freaking good to read. I stayed up late too many nights in a row finishing this one but do I have any regrets? Absolutely not. 

Thanks to the author for gifting me a copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Ahh!! This one was even better then the first. But then that makes seem like the first was lacking. Not at all. I am so in love with the romance in this series. Be prepared to binge hardcore. Zach and Isa are so so so amazing.

I started this book yesterday and binged the remaining 64% today. Oh my goodness. This book. Where Katelyn’s story in Sleet Kitten starts out very fun and sweet, Izzy’s story immediately begins with fire!

Being the daughter of the coach of the Sleet team, she swore off hockey players, and she intends to kick-start her dating life with a one-night stand with Zach, the hottest man she’s ever seen who she met on a dating app. It was glorious, she loved it, but she walks away, certain that she’ll never see him again. Except she does—in her father’s office, because he’s newest player on the Sleet team. While Izzy tries her best to remind herself while hockey players are a bad idea for her, Zach does everything in his power to prove that they make the perfect match.

And what a match! I loved this couple as much as the first. Their story was a whole lot of fun and hot, with some sweet mixed into it. I mean, with a name like Sugar, how could it not? Izzy was a very relatable and lovable leading female character, and Zach was simply perfect with his deceptive Bad Boy aura. The fun of this read was this cat-and-mouse game between the couple. You want them to end up together, but you’re also enjoying the whole process of them getting there because it’s sweet torture.

Like the first book, this one also has an incredible cast of secondary characters. Most are characters we’ve seen from the previous book. Meghan is the one we see more than the rest. She’s that type of friend who’s always there to push her friends in the right direction, which makes me extra excited to see where her story leads to—especially since it’s strongly hinted at in this book.

Thank you to the author for sending me a copy. Opinions are all my own.

Another fantastic book in the Sleet series! This one was the perfect follow up to Jackson’s and Kathryn’s story. Izzy and Jackson are amazing and their story is full of passion. 

Dating is hard, especially if you are the coach’s daughter. Izzy swore she would never date a hockey player again. Because they never liked her. They like her father and what she could do for them. 

So to cure get dry spell, Izzy matches with a guy named Zach on a hook up site and the two meet up. They had the most mind blowing night and Izzy leaves in the middle of the night, expecting to never see this man again. 

Until she walks into her fathers office and sees Zach, the new player on the sleet team. More than ever, she tried to ignore his advances and put distance between them. Which is proving difficult because everywhere she looks, Zach is there. She can’t deny her need for him for much longer. 

I absolutely adores Zach and Izzy. I thought he was the perfect, sweet alpha male for her. He brought out the best in her and she him. My heart broke a little during a certain scene, making Zachary spiral and with thoughts of not being good enough. 

Overall it has a happy ending and I’m so excited for the next one! I think It’ll be my favorite!
