Rock Bottom Girl A Small Town Romantic Comedy edition by Lucy Score Contemporary Romance eBooks Reviews
- At 38 you hit what you perceive as rock bottom and have to move back to your home town to live with your parents. What could be worse? Working at the high school you couldn't get away from fast enough after graduation, AND coaching a girls soccer team that rivals that of the bad news bears. Poor pitiful Marley, who views herself as the town pariah for some screw up at her homecoming, now gets to walk the halls of high school surrounded by so many memories. Marley runs into her past crush Jake *swoony* Weston and a deal is brokered to help her navigate coaching/teaching. Jake is the cross country coach and comes to Marley's rescue in several ways. Even I would take up running if he showed up at my house sweaty and shirtless.
Lucy Score brings all the right ingredients for a perfect small town rom-com. Assistant coach, Vicky, is every girls dream side-kick. Her dry humor is a great compliment to Marley's self-doubt. Amie Jo and Travis, the queen and king of everything, personify the dream couple living in their mcmansion. Plus so many great moments with the soccer team, poker game cleaning service, comical pranks, tree climbing antics, and a small town email chain to rival all others. Not only do we get our happily ever after, we also get a bit of a life lesson. Highly recommend this terrific tale! - Long review, but here's the cliffs notes Read.This.Book.Today.
Here's what I love about Lucy Score. She's one of few authors that paint an absolute picture with her words. The description of Jessica, Marley's mother, made me cry - it was written with so much love and I felt like how a baby egg animal imprints on the first animal it sees. I feel a very kindred relationship to Jessica!
Other great word pictures Jake's house, Marley's bedroom, the locker room & Marley's office, Amie Jo's house, every Airbnb guest, and Vicky.
Here's why you should read the book - Marley is a little bit of every single woman in existence, why? Because we've all lived through High School, we've all failed at SOMETHING that meant a lot to us, we've all questioned our worth, and we've all wanted for hope.
Marley is incredibly kind to others, especially when she doesn't have to be, while still struggling to extend that kindness to herself. I did have trouble with that aspect of the book because I don't struggle like that, but it was easy for me to remember a time when I did and I was reminded that many of the women I coach are still struggling like that today, then I was able to see Marley through a lens of compassion. I found myself cheering for her to practice some good ole Bootleg Justice (a saying from another Lucy series) when instead she, herself, chose kindness.
Jake saw her kindness, Jake WORSHIPED her kindness. Jake is seriously one of the best book boyfriends in the history of book boyfriends. He's wicked hot, crazy intuitive, thoughtful, and ready. Did I mention hot? I'd like to audit his History class!
This may be a long book but I felt myself wanting even more. Yeah, I read the bonus epilogue (it was EVERYTHING) but I still want more. I've been missing Jake and Marley for DAYS since I finished. This is only the second book I've ever needed to re-read immediately after finishing, that's how much I missed them.
There's a funny cast of secondary characters, a great pet, and a snarky "Morticia" who will melt your heart. I can't wait for you to read it! - Marley, seemed to have it all, and then lost it in a day.
What do you do when you loose your home, boyfriend and job in one day?
Go back home to Mom and Dad, of course.
Dejected, Marley, takes a job as a soccer coach and gym teacher, at her old high school. The same high school that band her from ever attending another homecoming ever, due to a prank that people are still talking about twenty years later.
She doesn't have a teaching degree.
She played soccer in high school, twenty years ago. âš½
It's only temporary, so why not.
Jake Weston, is beloved by the faculty, his students and the whole town.
He's the bad boy, one night stand guy, turned hot teacher.
He has a past with Marley and wants to have a future with her too.
He offers to help her, with her students, if she helps him with having a relationship.
When her nemeness, trys to make things difficult they end up signing an agreement, with the school, that says they will stay together for a year.
Lucy Score, has once again wrote perfection down on the pages of this beautiful and heart touching story.
She makes you laugh and cry and feel happy inside and out. 😂
A beautiful piece of art, in my opinion.
She's a one click author, in my book. â™¥ï¸ - An epic story about personal declarations of independence! I was completely invested in Jake and Marley’s story, in them as a couple and individually. I’ve never wanted a heroine to succeed more! I wanted her to win a soccer game, earn her student’s respect, let go of her own high school horrors, win the love of the town George Clooney, but most of all I wanted Marley Cicero to belief in herself.
That town George Clooney hero Jake Weston? Wow. He’s as close to perfect as you can get. His campaign to boost Marley’s confidence is fun, sweet and swoon worthy. Jake’s life coach mantras seep into Marley’s soul and has her reevaluating all she knew to be true.
As Marley slowly becomes entrenched in the small town she thought she hated we see her bloom, we see her look at competitors, enemies, and friends with new eyes not blinded by self-loathing. With hard won 20-20 hindsight Marley does become the woman we all can cheer for.
Once again Lucy Score has created a world I want to inhabit, full of quirky characters, cute kids, and endearing pets. Welcome to Culpepper, PA folks. - Loved the story, I related to it so much until it had to go political. Once the history teacher talked about the guy driving the Maserati in a MAGA hat and the random Fox News “fact†you totally lost me. I don’t want politics in my books. I don’t want to know what the author’s politics are. I just want to read a fun story.
