The Mistake: Now an Original Series on Amazon Prime (Off-Campus, 2)

The Mistake is the second book on the Off Campus series by Elle Kennedy. The Mistake is Logan’s book and I can honestly say that when I read The Deal, I fell head over heels for this character from the moment I met him. How can you not love John Logan and his cocky grin? John Logan is a player a fact that he makes no excuses for. He is a very well-known member of the Briar University hockey team and because of this; he has no problems getting the female students attention. In fact he has no issues getting any females attention, at all. But lately Logan has realized that he has been hooking up even more frequently than usual, even by his own standards. In fact his friends are noticing it as well, but what they do not know, is that he has a reason for his behavior. He is just not willing to admit it or even consider dealing with it because he is far more comfortable with running away from the problem, then facing it head on. “This obsession with Hannah Wells is really starting to mess with my head. I need to get laid. ASAP.” Grace Ivers is a freshman at Briar University and she is well aware of who John Logan is. Her best friend has been chasing Dean, one of Logan’s teammates for quite some time now with no success. When she bumps into Logan at a party on campus one night, immediately following one of his many hook ups she is struck by his hotness and cocky attitude, but quickly pulls herself out of the lustful fog. John Logan is a player and there is no way he would ever be interested in her, the freshman virgin. Grace also has no interest in being yet another notch on Logan’s seemingly never ending belt loop. When Logan randomly knocks on Grace’s dorm room door one evening looking for a party, she is shocked. What could he possibly want with her? It has to be a mistake… and it is, he has the wrong room but, what happens next as they say is history. Grace and Logan are attracted to one and other and the sexual tension is thick enough to cut with a knife. Lust prevails and they do hook up that night, but Logan gets freaked out and leaves Grace “hanging” immediately afterwards. She is confused and hurt. Logan is totally clueless; he does this all the time, hooks up and runs, but then it hits him, Grace deserves better than that. Grace is better than that. “I made the guy come last night and he didn’t even stick around long enough to kiss me goodbye. So yeah, I have to face the facts: I’m just another girl on a long list of John Logan’s conquests.” “Leaving a girl wanting isn’t just embarrassing. It’s unacceptable.” Grace is not a puck bunny, in fact she doesn’t even like hockey, she prefers football. Logan doesn’t do relationships; he has no time, between Hockey and dealing with his troubled family life. When Logan is finally realizes he has feelings for Grace he doesn’t handle it well at all. He wants what Garrett has with Hannah. He is lonely and the never ending line of hook ups no longer interests him, he’s thinking constantly of Grace, other women no longer interest him at all. But he has screwed up royally; can he ever win Grace back? “It's a damn shame that duels don't play a role in the modern world anymore.” The Deal was the first book I had ever read by this author and I loved it, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on The Mistake. It then got buried on my kindle and I just realized I hadn’t yet gotten to read it and I moved up the list. I’m so very glad that I did, I love Elle Kennedy’s style of writing and being a Canadian I have a real soft spot for handsome, cocky, hockey players. I love that this book was a fabulous balance of sexy and steamy, sweet and sassy, funny and emotional. I love the characters, every single one of them. I especially love that the female main characters are spunky and sassy. The story line was great and I thought that the banter between characters was very amusing. I love that each book has a happily ever after and I’m really excited now to begin reading The Score. I hope that each and every one of the crew is given their own story in this series before it ends, because now I’m addicted. I’m reading The Score next; I’m excited to read Ali and Dean’s story. If you have not yet begun to read this series, I highly recommend it; I am loving this series by this fabulous Canadian author. “This guy continues to surprise me. To awe me. He’s a better person than I am, better than he gives himself credit for, and if I wasn’t sure about it before, then I’m damn well sure of it now. I love him.” “I need you. I can’t stand the thought of being without you.” He releases a shaky breath. “You’re the last person I think about before I go to sleep, and the first person I think about when I open my eyes in the morning. You’re it for me, baby.”

Loved Logan in The Deal, and his own HEA did not disappoint! I liked the banter between Logan and Grace and empathized with him over his commitment to his father and his brother. I agree with other reviewers who felt the end was a little rushed, but it also felt a little bit long to me, but neither overly so. Still a great read! Looking forward to the next book in the series!

I definitely have mixed feelings about this one. It was such an easy, fast read, and there were a lot of moments I enjoyed. But unfortunately book Logan was not my favorite character. There were times he gave me the ick, but there were moments where I really sympathized with everything he was going through. As for Grace, I found myself wanting to see more personal growth from her. We got glimpses of that through her friendship with Ramona, which I really liked, but I would have liked to see more. Overall, I enjoyed the story, but it wasn’t a favorite. I think it had a lot of potential that ultimately fell a little flat for me. My biggest issue was that Logan and Grace’s relationship felt more of a physical attraction than emotional connection.

John Logan, Garrett’s best friend from The Deal, starts off the story dreading his final year in college. His dream to play in the NHL never to be realized, as he’s going to stay home and take care of his alcoholic father and the family business, and he's crushing on his best friend's gal, Hannah (the heroine from The Deal). So he drowns his sorrows in booze and women, not necessarily in that order. Then he meets Grace Ivers, shy freshman. He hooks up with her but manages to screw it up. Thankfully, he’s not a quitter, and yes, romance happens. The Good, The Bad and Everything In Between -Elle Kennedy really has a knack for the sexy-funny: Truly, my favorite type of love story is the sexy and funny, and Ms. Kennedy’s brilliant at it. The ‘verse she’s created at Briar University is fun to visit and I’m intrigued with all the characters, not just the leads in each story. -Logan and Grace bring the heat: The sex scenes start slowly, and build well. There’s no lack of fooling around, so I was surprised when I realized that they didn’t make love until late in the book. I enjoyed that it isn’t perfect from the beginning, but really gets better as they get to know each other, much like a real relationship. Also, I’m not gonna lie - give me a hero who loves his oral, and I’ll show you a keeper. Logan’s love of the downtown was fantastic, and I liked that he was kind and gentle with Grace, never pressuring her to do anything she didn’t want to do. -Logan gives good grovel...and he has to: He screws up, more than once, because while I love him, he’s a bit of a butthead. But it’s the test of a man who gets back up when he falls down, and Logan does. The scenes where he works hard at getting back into Grace’s good...um, graces :), are funny and lead to some of the best moments in the book. Even when he screws up, I didn’t hate it, mostly just felt like nudging the knucklehead and setting him straight. It’s an excellent balance to the serious moments, like... -A bit of serious mixed in with the lighthearted: Logan is the child of an alcoholic and I think this fairly serious issue is handled well. It gives a poignant twist to a generally lighthearted tale. It’s so believable when he’s torn between living the life he’s always dreamed of, and taking care of his father. It gives an unexpected depth to Logan’s character that I enjoyed. I think it’s resolved fairly quickly, but I didn’t mind. -Grace is great: I’ve always enjoy seeing heroines who stand up for themselves, who can go toe to toe with their men and think for themselves. This series has had Hannah and now Grace as excellent examples of how you do strong new adult romantic heroines. Grace doesn’t just roll over for the hot jock and I respected her for it. She’s endearingly awkward, babbles when she’s nervous, but underneath it all, she’s no pushover. She values herself and she’s empathetic to Logan when he needs it, stubborn when he doesn’t. Loved her. -Can’t wait for more: I’m convinced menage is in the future of this series (yeah, I’m looking at you Dean) and if it is? I. Can’t. Wait. Elle Kennedy knows her way around a menage *fans self*, so it should be massively sexy and entertaining. -The only reason it’s not a five star: So I shaved a shade off the top because of a couple things: Logan’s almost hookup and lingering crush on Hannah. I know, he didn’t, but I’m a jealous gal and I didn’t like that he even attempted it. Also, Logan and Grace are sweet but predictable. Doesn’t matter though, I still had fun reading this. The Bottom Line (4.75 stars) I really enjoyed this (slightly bitter but) mostly sweet, funny story, almost as much as I loved the Deal. If you’re in the mood for a good NA romance, look no further than Elle Kennedy’s Off-Campus series. I highly recommend it. **ARC provided for review**

Can Grace overcome her love of football? Can Logan enough romantic acts to convince her hockey is better? This is a great story about overcoming the odds to find a happily ever after. The chemistry for these two goes from simmer to flame. Elle's writing is amazing with intriguing plots, engaging characters, and interesting settings. I love her books and am excited to read more.

The Mistake was such a good read! I absolutely loved Logan and Grace’s story. Logan was charming, funny, confident and just the right amount of cocky, while Grace was such a great character with her own personality and backbone. I really enjoyed watching their relationship develop. There were plenty of funny moments, great chemistry, and just enough drama to keep me completely invested. I especially loved seeing Logan grow throughout the story and become more serious about what he wanted, rather than just being the carefree hockey player he initially appeared to be Excited for their story to be adapted to a series.

What a chicken I was to leave off reading this book for YEARS because I couldn’t cope with Logan’s “situation” (no spoilers!) & how it could possibly be sorted in his own book. Oh ye of little faith! Elle Kennedy isn’t a #1 author by CHANCE! Oh no, that is TALENT baby! She took the end of book one, ran with it, then flipped that mother sucker on its head to dig deeper into Logan and learn about Grace. These two were definitely made for each other. The story spans from one school year to the next and we get lots of context too. There are some side characters that I’m not sure o know why they were added as they didn’t add to the story and a particular side character that really needed an ending as she just disappeared. Why was she so unhappy? What was she getting into off page? Was she ever forgiven? The s story seemed to end abruptly, and that threw me off a bit. I kept going like I was gonna flip another page, and that was the end! Besides the fact of feeling like there are so many things left unsaid this was a good book. Definitely liked book one more but that could also be because the show just came out on prime but nahh, I loved to book one even a decade ago, and it’s still amazing to this day! The hard part of this was the female narrator on the portions when I listened…Lorelei Avalon, she was NOT CAST properly in my opinion at all. She’s not a bad narrator, she’s just not suited, even remotely, for a late teens early 20-year-old college student. Her voice is more for characters late 40s early 50s in my opinion. I’m glad on book 3. It looks like we changed the narrator so I hope to mostly listen to that one. As always, Lee Samuels did a phenomenal job. He’s been in the game for a while, so maybe that’s what helps make it right for him. But he definitely knew how to change the nuances of his voice to suit whatever character he was reading at that time. All in all, this was a really good book that I’m sad. I waited so long to read. Thanks to campus diaries coming out on TV? I’m ready to finally finish up this series! Book 3 here I come!!

I absolutely loved this book! Grace and Logan were such a perfect match, and I found myself rooting for them from the very beginning. I was so happy to see everything work out for Logan in the end. This is a slow-burn romance with the perfect amount of spice—not too much, not too little. The chemistry between the characters builds naturally, making every moment between them even more satisfying. The plot was engaging and kept me hooked from start to finish, and I never wanted to put the book down. After reading The Deal, I had high expectations for this one, and it definitely didn’t disappoint. I can’t wait to continue the series and read the rest of Elle Kennedy’s books!

What can I say other than I LOVED EVERY SECOND OF THIS BOOK! Grace and Logan are such sweethearts and literally perfect for each other. She came into his life when he needed her the most, helped him heal and together they created a beautiful love story. I must admit Garret and Hannah and Allie and Dean (Yep, I’m writing this review after I read The Score) kept me more on my toes but Grace and Logan are my precious babies that I keep tucked away in a special place in my heart and keep them protected at all costs. The whole Off-Campus Series is frick*n perfect!
