I wasn't quite sure how I was going to feel about the two authors thing in this one. As I've looked into it a bit, I've found that both have good reputations. That doesn't mean it was going to work with them trying this together. Well, it did work.I think what helped is the every other chapter different viewpoint thing they did. Then, reading the author's notes at the end of the book, it looks like each author wrote primary one voice.
Sometimes it seems like I was 18 eons ago, other times it seems like only yesterday. I also had a lot of responsibilities at that age as my father was disabled and I'm the 2nd of 4 kids. So I would like to think I'm a pretty good judge of what is authentic sounding in the "teenager who is expected to be an adult but still obey like a child" area. The two ladies hit it out of the ballpark there.
There was also something about Bishop's inner dialogue, the push and pull of addiction, that rang true for me. I am not an addict so I don't have the first hand experience in this matter, but it seemed like it could be the way of it for some.
Of course, being a YA type of romance, there is some predictability to the story. But that doesn't take away from it being a sweet and sometimes heart-wrenching tale. It definitely piqued my interest in both authors and I will be checking out more of their stuff.

I loved the evolution of Bishop and Penny. The typical angst of teenage romance exacerbated by fame and the anxieties that come with said fame. I've never read anything from Jolene Perry, but after this read I definitely will in the future.
I could not stop reading this story. The characters were amazing. Bishop is the hot bad boy who is actually a good guy. We all love that. Penny is the strong gorgeous girl we all want to be. The supporting characters help make it an entertaining and heart felt story. It is even a little believeable that a hot rock star would fall for small town girl in Alaska. You'll enjoy it. Just read it.
My favorite part about the whole book is Penny! This is probably the only book I can remember where the girl appears to be stronger than the guy. I LOVED IT!! She wasn't sitting around complaining about her life and she didn't take any crap. Don't get me wrong. I was digging Bishop too. I mean come on, He's a hott drummer but it was just refreshing to read a book about a strong heroine. The story line was also something a little out of the "norm" so it kept things interesting to read. Great job to Jolene Perry and Nyrae Dawn! You've done it again!
I started out like any other YA romance, the troubled boy and the feisty girl who woukd save him. But I must say, the story took a turn I didn't expect. The romance was sweet and tentative. But what really got to me was both Penny's and Bishops relationship with Gramps. And Bishop and Gary. From being A story about first love and young love it became about different kinds of love, trust, acknowledging your own weeknesses, standing up for yourself. Yes, I truly enjoyed this read.
Classic Young Adult romance book (in a good way). Two great characters, struggling with their own issues, finding something in each other. I laughed, I definitely cried, and I had moments of fabulous swoonage. And I wasn't sure how the ending was going to play out, but I was extremely satisfied with how it wrapped up. It did take me a bit to get sucked in, and I'm not entirely sure why...but the book hit its stride in the middle.
There were even some fabulous secondary characters in the book -- I really loved Gary's role with Bishop. But the surprise highlight of the book, for me, was Gramps. He was exactly what both Penny and Bishop needed.
This is a fantastic book. I'm disappointed I already read the first of a series of books but am unsure how many more have been released. I'll be looking for the next one.
This is shocking to admit that it's one of the first squeaky clean books I've read in a long time. It's actually difficult to find a novel minus either filthy language or sex. It was refreshing.
The plot involved a female hockey player who lives in Alaska. Her mother has rental housing. A male stayed in one of the units to get clean from drugs. His guardian had no idea that Bishop was still using yet trying desperately to get clean. I won't give the plot away, but this becomes an unexpected romance.
Actually, there was some profanity, but it was much less than any book I've read in a long time. I think you'll enjoy the different subject matter. It did take me awhile to get into the story.

I received an ARC copy by the publisher for an honest review.
5 stars
I have to admit, I did not know how this story would work with two different authors writing a book. The story was told from two different points of view. Nyrae wrote Bishop's point of view and Jolene wrote Penny's. Each author nailed it perfectly. The story flowed beautifully and the character development was rock solid.
The story is about Bishop who is young and a rock star. He has some problems with drugs and alcohol and after some bad choices he ends up in Alaska. Penny is a kick ass girl hockey player who doesn't take crap from anybody. She's tough as nails and is in her comfort zone when she's hanging with guys or on the ice.
Without giving too much away, the story of Penny and Bishop is a tale of friendship, trust, letting go, finding your inner strength and love. Their story takes the reader on a beautiful journey. The supporting characters enhance the story and create a perfect balance for Bishop and Penny. The issues discussed in the book are real and relatable. This is published for the young adult/ teen line and is appropriate for young readers. There are some make out scenes and discussion of sex. If you are looking for a growing up and coming of age love story, that is real, this is the book for you. Out Of Play is Outstanding!
