The Mistake OffCampus Volume 2 Elle Kennedy Books

Starting out slow, I had a hard time getting into this story. Longing for your best friend's girlfriend is depressing at best, and sucks big time every other day. However, the idea of two brothers dedicating their own lives to keeping their alcoholic father's business for him was a little harder to swallow, especially given Logan's talent on the ice. Neither his brother or father really supported HIM. He was only a young kid when he began taking on way more than he ought to have, and the older men in his life didn't get that. Thank the Lord for his coach!

Anyway, once Logan realizes Grace's worth and beauty, his life gets better, or, at least, his attitude about his life improves. Their story isn't too different from other college kids who become a couple, but the writer has done a solid job of portraying the agony, pain, and suffering Logan lived with. Despite being pleasing to the eye, he's actually a good man who comes through for Grace, though I think observing Garrett and Hannah did him the most good since it taught him about being half of a couple. So, three stars for a.solid job.

The Mistake OffCampus Volume 2 Elle Kennedy Books Reviews

The Mistake, what to say about The Mistake...

I didn't care for it. What worked for The Deal did nothing for The Mistake. The humor was flat, the romance was...meh, and the story itself was pretty--I hate to say it boring.

I just didn't care for these characters. Grace starts off as this sweet, cherub-faced, shy girl--who blabs and likes a guy she can't believe we even give her a second look.

Logan is sort of charming. He sleeps around like most of his teammates and he has no interest in a relationship--at least he hasn't. Until Grace of course.

Grace and Logan come together by chance encounter. They have fun--they enjoy each other--then Logan screws up.

Some months go by and Grace is back--a little jaded, and far from the weak shy blabby girl she used to be. And, now Logan realizes how much he wants her--but she won't let him back that easily.

This is where the book lost me. It wasn't so much the winning her back--because that was cute. It was the change in Grace. Sure she was stronger. But in my honest opinion she was unnecessarily meaner. Sure what happened between them was humiliating but I just found some, SOME of her behavior unwarranted. I didn't find it endearing. Not at all.

Logan was better in the second half of the novel. He seemed to find himself and he was slightly more charming--once he put his player days aside. But it was just something about him that did nothing for me. Not like Garrett in The Deal. Even without comparing the two, I just, Logan was just okay to me.

This entire book was okay to me. I just have zero care to give for any of it. The characters, the story, their background--whatever. It felt like I was going through the motion--and that's the worst feeling to have.

I don't think I'm going to bother with The Score because I'm not sure it will be any better than this one. This might be one of those scenarios where the original is all you need.
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.”
