Shh. My new client is my high school crush and no one can find out.

Put this in the vault: my new etiquette coach is the one who got away. Going after her is against the rules. The big your best friend’s sister is forbidden rule.

Pippa
I clawed my way back to believing in true love after healing from a broken heart. But that’s in the past and I’m a capable, modern woman. Also, a little clumsy, but we all have our quirks, right?

I certainly don’t need my parents meddling in my love life and trying to marry me off. I can do that myself—turns out I can also trip and fall on my own too. The thing is, I already fell once (big mistake) and am afraid that maybe I haven’t quite gotten over him after all.

So, I do the logical thing and work as an etiquette coach, putting me among the social elite, including some promising prospects. Turns out being clumsy isn’t the worst of my weird luck because my high school crush crashes right back into my life.

Chase
As the Boston Bruiser’s quarterback, I’m in the spotlight and get a lot of flak for my perpetual bachelorhood, but I don’t want to settle down until I find “the one.” Problem is, once upon a time I did, then messed things up.

After a team prank goes awry, the coach calls a foul and I have to attend etiquette coaching with the added rule that dating is off-limits. This should be a cinch...until the woman of my dreams stumbles back into my life.

When our parents pressure us to get hitched, I propose we just fake an engagement to appease them until they come to their senses. The problem is, I haven’t. At least not when it comes to Pippa. When the lines blur, I’m not sure if I’m headed for a touchdown or a disaster.

What will happen if we toss out the rules and make up our own?

USA Today bestselling author Ellie Hall presents a romantic comedy with sweet and swoony sizzle in this “clean and wholesome” romance without swearing or mature content but with a happily ever after. Each book stands alone but reading them in order provides a deeper, richer experience.

Pippa and Chase

Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2023

Verified Purchase

I love Chase and his steadiness and tenacity. I love his loyalty to his friends and family. I love his work ethic and support of his team. I love Philippa and her rules. I love that she embraces being an introvert. I love that she’s a rule follower, and that she speaks her mind. But I did get frustrated with her and her insecurities. I love the Easter egg about the pizza and pie shop in Hawk Ridge Hollow. I love the romance. I love trying to figure out what Chase will do and how the problems with his dad will be resolved. I love the romance and the happily ever after. I recommend this book, especially if you like humor, family, problems, and clean romance.

Fun, flirty, and humorous

This story of hogh school crushes coming back into life was lots of fun. With a true Villan mean girl, lots of parent drama, and crazy situations it is a wonder that the main characters would speak to each other but forced proximity can do that to one. The ups and downs of this had me laughing, crying, and swioning.

Opposites Attract Romance

Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2023

Verified Purchase

Having experienced it in high school I don’t like reading about people making others the public brunt of their joke even if it is to cover up a crush like Chase did. He does apologize years later and is forced to work with Pippa after the team scandal. He wants a real relationship with her but even though she’s attracted to him she keeps pushing him towards other ridiculous women include the one who ruined school for her and continues to act immature bringing up embarrassing history most of which she created and blackmailing Chase’s family. This has an opposites attract romance to it with Pippa being a self-conscious introvert artistic klutz and Chase an outgoing self assured football star.

His Coach Was His HS Crush

Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2023

I love this series and each one of these prankster Boston Bruiser’s football players who let their pranks go a little too far. When the football commissioner wants them to be punished for their embarrassing prank, they all have to go to Etiquette School for a month. Each man is paired with an Etiquette Coach and that's where the stories take off as the sparks fly between player and coach. Each story can be read as a stand alone story. I love the witty interactions between the characters.

This story involves Pippa and Chase- they actually went to HS together in England for a year before he got drafted to play football. Pippa and Chase had feelings for one another but his fear of what her twin brother would do to him made him hesitant to ask her out. All through HS Pippa had a series of unfortunate accidents sometimes involving food all over her clothes. One particular girl made it her aim to make Pippa miserable always pointing out her mishaps. The one that crushed her the most was when Chase invited her to have some cake which turned out to be a sponge covered with frosting. She thought he was going to ask her out to the prom but she overheard some girls saying he was just pranking her. That's when she gave up on her crush and the crush list she had made for Chase.

Chase had a crush on Pippa that he still carried in his heart. He almost told his friend Freddie that he loved Pippa, but he realized her brother would probably beat him up, so he changed it to I love pizza. So in his mind every time he thinks of Pippa, he needs to find some pizza to get over his feelings. He knew he had hurt her and never got a chance to apologize since he got called away to play football. When he's invited to a dinner party with his parents - he never expects to see Pippa there. Before he can get her alone to apologize- both sets of parents are trying to get them to marry. Pippa wants nothing to do with it and leaves the party to go back to where she lives.

Chase knows he has to get through a month of etiquette and he has a no dating clause from his coach.
When he meets his new coach, he is overwhelmed when it turns out to be Pippa. With the time they have to spend together, can he get her to forgive him and give them a chance at a relationship?

I loved how much of a gentleman Chase was brought up to be and when he finally explained to Pippa, the cake debacle, it wasn't what she thought. Chase stands up for her again and again as she faces some irritating girls from her past. It was fun that Chase got a copy of her Crush list without realizing she wrote it.

I received a copy of this book from the author and this is my honest unbiased review.

Reader’s Notes:

– this is part of a series, but can be read as a stand-alone

– this is told from Pippa & Chase’s points of view

Review:

I absolutely ADORED Pippa and Chase! They are such a cute couple and I loved their story so so much! I loved their matchmaking mothers throwing them together. I loved their talks with the people closest to them about their feelings and what they should do. I loved that we found out little pieces of their past together in order to get the full picture of what went down that made it where Pippa was trying not to still like Chase. Some of my favorite scenes in this book included: Chase catching Pippa, Pippa having to shadow Chase during the dating show segments, the carnival, the society dinner, and Pippa’s conversations with her siblings.

Summary:

Pippa fell for her brother’s best friend Chase back when they were in high school, but after an incident chose to let go of that fantasy. Or so she thought. Sometimes Pippa finds herself thinking about the now football star as more than just a fan. Though she is determined to keep her hands off, especially when she accidentally bumps into the man himself at a society function and reminds her of all the reasons they would never work out. But when Pippa returns to Concordia for work, she is unhappily surprised to find out her next etiquette client is none other than Chase.

Chase isn’t like his fellow football players when it comes to romance. He’d prefer to save himself for the one he’ll marry. Once upon a time he thought he’d found her, but after he blew it with her, Chase isn’t too sure she’ll ever want to be with him. But luck is on his side. With the accidental results of a prank Chase and his friends pulled, they are all required to attend a school to fix their images and their manners. While this isn’t any of their ideas of fun, Chase is happy to participate once he discovers the identity of his coach. Pippa is the one that got away and while she may not seem happy to see him, Chase hopes to be able to sway her in time. If only she’d stop sending him to date other girls and pulling away in the moments they share. Will she be able to finally let him in or choose to be only ever his coach?
