**I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. **

Toni Aleo’s books never cease to amaze me! Misadventures of a Rookie had me hooked from start to finish! Gus “The Bus” Persson was drafted by the NHL’s Twin Cities Tornados, but first has to spend some time playing on their AHL team the Malibu Suns. This is where he meets the fiery ice girl, Bo St. James. Burned by a past relationship, Bo wants absolutely nothing to do with Gus. All she wants to do is finish school and start her career.

Gus is sweet and understanding, but he also is driven and goes after what he wants. Bo is sassy and has a “take no crap” attitude but is also very gun shy about relationships. These two are drawn together for an incredible journey filled with some awkward, some cringe worthy, and some down right hilarious moments.

This is an amazing book that I highly recommend reading. Once you start, you won’t want to put it down until your finished!
