The Instigator Redtails Hockey edition by Stephanie Julian Contemporary Romance eBooks

Derek “The Instigator” Flaherty loves playing hockey and enjoys his current team, the Redtails. His dream is to play in the NHL, so he works hard and is well respected. And his teammates all love him, even though they don’t necessarily see the real guy behind the laughs and good times. But that’s okay, Derek prefers to keep things casual, never allowing relationships to mess with his head or run his life.

As the baby of her family, Sophie is the good girl who does what’s asked of her. She keeps her dreams of traveling abroad to herself, rather than seeing any kind of disappointment or hurt in her family’s eyes. Working to finish her degree and putting in all sorts of hours at her dad’s bar, Sophie doesn’t have time for guys or a social life. However, when she meets Derek, she feels something stir inside of her and thinks maybe a little fun isn’t bad.

Although this is the fourth book in the Redtails Hockey series, The Instigator is a standalone romance that can be enjoyed without previous knowledge of the series. Derek and Sophie hit it off right from the start, and I love their chemistry. They are almost always in sync - whether in the bedroom or not. They are the kind of couple who clicks and can have lengthy conversations like two old friends. They also have other “lengthy” activities, and their romantic encounters are pretty smokin’.

The story moves fairly smoothly, filled with genuine emotions and conflict. I appreciate that their issues are common and real, and that they move past them together. Both Sophie and Derek each has some growing to do, and they start by admitting to themselves how they really feel. There are a few of hiccups along the way, including a couple of minor inconsistencies that took me out of the story. I also felt like some issues were brought up but not fleshed out enough - like why everyone kind of dumps on Derek being not good boyfriend material and Derek’s ex-girl friend, which is hinted as being a bad breakup. I kept expecting more details to fill in why maybe Derek is the way he is.

All in all, I enjoyed The Instigator, and really love Derek and Sophie as a couple. They are genuine and adorable. They are scared, but move forward. They learn to communicate. The Instigator is a nice paced, happy story.

The Instigator Redtails Hockey edition by Stephanie Julian Contemporary Romance eBooks Reviews

The Instigator is the 4th book in the Redtails Hockey series but can be read as a standalone. I had not read previous books and I had no issues jumping right into Derek and Sophie's story.

Derek is in the AHL but his dream is to make it to the NHL. Just at the cusp of change he meets the one woman who'll make him think twice about his decisions

Sophie has big dreams of getting her teaching certificate and traveling abroad to teach English to kids. She's one semester away from graduating and has had no issues keeping men at arms length so she stays focused on her dream. That is until she meets Derek.

I love my hockey books and I'm glad to find a new author who can do them right. This was on the shorter side but the author did a great job of not making it feel rushed.

We got to see Derek and Sophie meet, spend time together and are on the cusp of more when decisions have to be made which ultimately pushed their relationship to the next level. I enjoyed it and will read more from this series. ARC provided by author.
Loved all the stories. Derek and Sophie were adorable. Please, please, please tell me the next book will be Faith & Jake!! I've been waiting for that since Bliss & Shane's book! <3 <3
Derek and Sophie are such a fun couple.. The banter back and forth is amazing and they make the book fun and sweet with a touch of sexy and sassy.. Favorite book in the series so far
I really enjoyed this book. It is a good story with excellent writing and realistic characters. By now I have read a few of Stephanie 's books and I enjoyed them all. Go girl.

Loved this book. Great romance and lots of steamy sex scenes. So glad they got their happy ever after ending. I will continue to follow this author and i look forward to reading more of her books.
Love these Redtails Hickey books. Derek and Sophie were much alike, talkative and excitable. They clicked but would the last. Loved this story, interesting couple. This book made me laugh quite a bit and I loved the hot love scenes. Another great book. Gotta read this series, even though each story is a standalone the stories are more interesting when you know the other players
Redtails Hockey is Back. Book four in Stephanie Julian’s series and we get to meet The Instigator Of The team Derek Flaherty.
Derek is the non stop talking teammate either you love or hate but what you see is what you get.
Sophie Tsoukalos is a college student working at her families bar, always the reliable good girl but one night when Derek walks into her family’s bar her life changes.
Derek & Sophie have more in common then you would think, both love their family, both do what they can do to help out others but the one fun thing they have in common is they both like to talk a lot.
The chemistry between them is off the charts amazing, their banter is fun to watch and just seeing them being together will leave a smile on your face. They will have some big decisions to make but in the end you are definitely hoping that the decision will lead them to finding their happily ever after.
