Summary: This book goes on the keeper shelf!
Review: This book was a truly fun, fast paced read. I could not put it down and finished it in one day. The hero is so yummy I am seriously considering becoming a hockey fan to see if someone like Luc really exists. The heroine was a tad annoying at times but overall the banter between the two was great. I was laughing out loud a number of times. The secondary characters were also very well written and interesting.
I highly recommend getting this book and sitting down for an afternoon of fun.

Summary: Awesome! Couldn't put it down!
Review: I've never read any of Rachel Gibson's books, but the plot description got me--I'm a huge sports fan (baseball mostly, but I do enjoy hockey) and I love romance novels--so here's my two faves in one. And I wasn't disappointed! I laughed out loud, cried a little....and loved it! Yeah, certain things are predicatable, but all in all, it's a great read. I loved it so much, I bought 2 other of her books.

Summary: See Rachel Score
Review: First off I must say that I am a bit biased because I love hockey, and I really appreciate a good hockey hero. Luc Martineau is all that and more. He is definitely the epitome of the hot hockey player, but besides that he was a genuinely nice guy. Jane Alcott was just assigned by her newspaper to be the sports reporter for the Seattle Chinooks, a fictional hockey team. She was quite happy as she thought this assignment would help her career. What is so great about Jane is that she is so realistic: about herself, her looks, her life. She knows her limits, but she does know that she is a worthy of a great love. She may not be the prettiest person, but she is definitely interesting, especially considering her other career, as a writer for Him magazine, writing the pornographic serial Honey Pie. Luc does not know about this little career of hers, which causes trouble for the couple. But along the way there are plenty of interesting moments including the big hockey superstion. I will never look at the phrase "You Big Dumb Dodo" the same way again. She also bonds with Luc's sixteen year old sister who just lost her mother and who moved in with Luc, much to his initial displeasure. What is so great about this book is that the characters grow. Luc, Jane, Marie, even Caroline and Darby. There are plenty of comedic moments, and the love scenes are scorching. Luc's tattoo of a horse shoe is in quite the interesting place. We also get a glimpse of Gibson's other hockey character, John Kowalsky and wife Georgeanne. This book definitely lives up to its title, and it is a definite great romance. The uncertainty of love and the happiness that follows it being acknowledged is all present in See Jane Score.

Summary: I really expected to be hooked
Review: from the first page, but found this story to be slow getting into, and for that alone, the 3 stars. The book finally started picking up some speed and I found I enjoyed it thoroughly. It was funny and the characters were highly likeable. Miss those dogs though.....

Summary: A Stanley Cup winning romance
Review: When the ice hockey reporter needs a leave of absence for health reasons, the Seattle Times assigns Jane Alcott to temporarily cover the local NHL franchise, the Chinooks. Jane figures a puck is a character from Shakespeare, so knows she has little time to learn hockey to avoid the team exiling her to the penalty box. When Jane arrives in the locker room, the players give her the special treatment of rookie initiation (harassment?) but no feedback on the sport. Still she preservers especially with veteran goalie Luc "Lucky" Martineau, who is the key to a Stanley Cup run. Lucky thinks Jane is out of his league in sports and sex. She agrees though he is unaware that she is the author of the pornographic Honey Pie serial. Still the heart does strange things and soon Jane and Lucky see the other as the most valuable person in their life. Hockey is clearly in among romance writers as several contemporaries of late focus on that sport. SEE JANE SCORE is contains a descriptive story line that ranges from the Impaler's paraphernalia to a toad on the road starring two delightful lead characters and teammates who seem real. This reviewer is biased as anyone who can reference Gump Worsley is either a great researcher or has sit in the top row of MSG in the early 1960s when the maskless goalie was target practice for a much smaller NHL. Rachel Gibson provides sports romance readers with a winning overtime goal even if she had not mention the real Gump. Harriet Klausner

Summary: Loved this book!
Review: I have enjoyed all of Rachel Gibson's books that I have read, but most especially this one ('See Jane Score') and it's sort-of prequel, 'Simply Irresistible'. It's not necessary to read the first book to enjoy or understand the second. Jane is a reporter who also writes an ongoing column for a men's magazine. Luc is a hockey player with a bad boy past who distrusts reporters, he's also become the guardian of his teenage sister. The sparks fly as at first Jane and Luc don't get along. Jane and Luc both have issues that they deal with during the story. The book kept me on the edge of my seat with a "will they...", "won't they...". You are cheering for them to get together throughout the book.

Summary: She shoots, she scores!
Review: This is the first Rachel Gibson book that I've read and it won't be the last. Jane Alcott writes articles a la "Sex and the City" for the Seattle Times. But, unbeknown to anyone except her best friend, she also writes soft-core porn for a men's magazine. Out of the blue, Jane gets a chance to become the sports-beat reporter for the Seattle Chinooks hockey team. She jumps at the chance as this will boost her flagging career. She soon meets and butts heads with bad boy goalie, Luc Martineau. Luc is gorgeous, aloof, trying to live down his bad boy reputation, take care of his 16 year old sister who was suddenly plunked down into the middle of his life and he hates reporters. Jane is attracted to Luc, but believes she has zero chance with him, because his usual type of woman is basically life sized Barbies and she is short, small chested, and a reporter. But, as they say, opposites attract and these two eventually collide. I have to agree with Elizabeth Lowell's quote on the cover of the book, "Gibson is funny, touching, steamy..." I loved both Luc and Jane. Gibson does a great job conveying the chemistry between these two. The dialogue was smart and provocative. The secondary characters were also interesting and were not overblown. That's a pet peeve of mine; when secondary characters are so large that the main characters lose their "oomph." Yes, there were some silly cliches (Jane's "red dress transformation" and the dart game scene), but these were minor and did not interfere or lessen my reading enjoyment. For those of you interested in the sexual content, I'd rate this book a seven where Julia Quinn rates a five and Linda Howard rates a nine. Now that I've found this author, I can't wait to start on her other books.
