Hendrix

Hendrix is amazing! I love this series but this guy is 5+
Read it in one sitting. One of the “Lucky 3” who survived the devastating crash we see Hendrix as he really is…not perfect. He meets a biker chick…Stevie and they become an oddly matched set. The sex is off the charts and the characters lead you through one of the best stories! From the opening pages Hendrix starts by ditching a whiny girlfriend thats his team calls “super velcro” cause she clings real good! 🤣Stevie’s dad is a protective biker dad and her loser mom steals a journal that rocks both main characters. Don’t miss it- it is a fantastic read. I love this series!

4.5 stars--HENDRIX Is the seventh instalment in Sawyer Bennett’s contemporary, adult PITTSBURGH TITANS erotic, hockey romance series. This is twenty-five year old, Pittsburgh Titans player, Hendrix Bateman, and twenty-five year old, bar owner Stevie Kisner’s story line. HENDRIX can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary. Hendrix Bateman is one of the three original team members not on the doomed flight, and Stevie is best friends with Harlow Alston (Stone #2).

SOME BACKGROUND: Several months earlier, a devastating plane crashed claimed all but three members of the Pittsburgh Titans hockey team including owners, coaches and staff. Rebuilding the team, owner Brienne Norcross, offered positions to one-time professional and semi-pro players, including our story line hero.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Stevie and Hendrix) HENDRIX follows the building romance and relationship between is twenty-five year old, Pittsburgh Titans player, Hendrix Bateman, and twenty-five year old, bar owner Stevie Kisner. Hendrix has had enough with his current girlfriend, and dumps in a spectacular way in Jerry’s Lounge, a bar owned by our story line heroine. Several members of the Pittsburgh Titan’s are collecting money and toys for the under privileged, and Hendrix is about to meet his future in the guise of bar owner Stevie Kisner. Stevie battles between head and heart having watched the breakup, up close and personal, but a bet over a game of pool finds Stevie agreeing to a dinner together. Meanwhile, Stevie’s absentee mother, a woman who walked away from Stevie when our heroine was a child is about to upend Stevie’s life, pushing Hendrix out of the picture, and into his own spiral. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Stevie and Hendrix, and the potential fall-out as issues of trust force a wedge between our leading couple, a wedge that may be too large for our heroine to over come.

Stevie was raised by her father John ‘Bear’ Kisner, a motorcycle driving, tattoo artist whose overprotective nature threatens anyone who gets close to his only daughter but the past refuses to let go, and Stevie is about to experience the art of deception, first hand, a deception that threatens Stevie’s relationship with our story line hero.

The relationship between Stevie and Hendrix is one of immediate attraction but Stevie doesn’t have time for a relationship, and Hendrix is too ‘pretty’ for our heroine’s father 😉 . Stevie finds herself quickly falling for the man who is about to destroy her heart, a man who feels betrayed by the woman he loves. The $ex scenes are passionate and intense, without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

Once again, there is a large ensemble cast of colorful and familiar secondary and supporting characters including several members of the Pittsburgh Titans Hockey club including Stone and Harlow (Stone #2). We are introduced to Stevie’s father John ‘Bear’ Kisner, and her mother, Hendrix’s aunt Rory, and his ex Tracy.

HENDRIX is a heart breaking story of betrayal, lies and greed, forgiveness, acceptance and love. The fast paced premise is emotional and entertaining but a little bit predictable; the romance is seductive and provocative; the characters are desperate, determined, dynamic and captivating.

HENDRIX by Sawyer Bennett is the seventh book in the Pittsburgh Titans series and is Hendrix and Stevie's story.

Hendrix and Stevie are complete opposites in every way. He is a professional hockey player and she owns a biker bar. Neither is looking for anything serious when they meet but one thing leads to another and they realize they mean more to each other than just a fling but Stevie's mom may be the one thing that can stop their happiness.

Another Pittsburgh Titans book that I was not a massive fan of. Hendrix is ok but nothing special and Stevie is too much of a pushover. Stevie's mother is an absolutely appalling human being and I wish she would have gotten her dues. I am disappointed that I am not enjoying this series as much as her other ones.

Tor Thom and CJ Bloom did a decent job narrating the story.

HENDRIX contains... sports (hockey), opposites attract, and dual first-person point of view.
