Review: The Art of Running in Heels

✩✩✩✩✩

Leaving your fiancé at the altar on live television is a disaster. Lexie Kowalsky thought she was ready to get married in front of millions of people, but at the last minute she fled the set of television’s hottest reality show, Gettin’ Hitched. Wearing a poofy white dress and a pair of five-inch sparkly shoes, Lexie hopped a float plane for Sandspit, Canada. She figured no one would find her there. But she was wrong.

Sharing her flight was the Seattle Chinooks biggest star, Sean Knox. Lexie wasn’t just a reality-show runaway, she was his pain in the butt coach’s daughter. She was chaos and temptation and definitely off limits, but after getting her luscious body out of that wedding gown, he couldn’t resist getting her in his bed for one amazing night.
Then a photo of Sean and Lexi breaks the internet—and suddenly they’re both swept up in a crazy plan to spin the whole story. But you can’t run from love...

Review: The Art of Running in Heels is an intensely amusing book. I'm not convinced the plot is entirely realistic, with all those lies and pretend love lives and reality TV drama, but I found myself laughing out loud several times along the story and I had difficulty putting it down. Some of the dialogs are absolutely delicious.

Because I had a lot of fun with this book and because sometimes all you need is a healthy dose of fun to get you thorough the realities of everyday life, I'm rating it with 5 stars.

(note: The Art of Running in Heels is part of the Chinooks Hockey Team series by Rachel Gibson but can re read as a stand alone novel).

Happy readings,
