Strike (Gentry Generations Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars 1,798 ratings

A summer job.
That’s all it was supposed to be.
It never crossed my mind that I was about to collide with a man who would obliterate every plan I ever made.
My mother has always warned me that love is like a lightning bolt and it strikes without warning. But I had no intention of getting struck by either lightning or love anytime soon. I’d be too busy finishing my journalism degree and landing a job in a city far more sophisticated than Phoenix.
There was certainly nothing in the cards about getting involved with an ex-ballplayer turned nightclub boss.
He was too old for me, too complicated, too distracting.
On the surface we had almost nothing in common except the draw of an overpowering physical connection.
The seasonal job at a local resort was going to be temporary.
He was going to be temporary.
But insufferably sexy, arrogant Dalton Tremaine has other ideas.
And the harder I fall for him the more I can’t find a good reason to resist giving him everything he wants…

*STRIKE is the first book in a brand new sexy spinoff series from NYT and USA Today Bestselling Author Cora Brent. No cliffhanger! May be read as a stand alone.

    Enjoyable read from the new Gentry generation.
    Cami is one of the twins from Cord & Saylor's line.
    She's all grown up and has 1 more year of college to go. She's back for the summer to make some money.
    Dalton who is back and looking to start his dreams of opening a baseball facility for youth.
    When they both get a glimpse of each other, the attraction is mutual.
    I enjoyed the chemistry between each characters including the world of politics and shady dealings with the Russians. It added to the drama and made for an enjoyable read.
    There are some grammatical errors but doesn't distract too much the story.

    Ok it was a good story but it didn't make me not to put book down. I fell the story was good but dragged on a bit and the way the story ended left me wanting more of Cam a d Dalton. This was my first book of this author and I would like to know more about Cami's parents but I'm not sure if I'll be disappointed again. This story lacked of drama, angst and some connection with me but it was ok.

    This story is heartwarming, hot and a storyline that will keep you reading to the end. The Gentry family are great characters and the romance and love between Cami and Dolton is sizzling. Can't wait to read the next book in the series.

    3.80 stars - This is another one of those small town second chance romances. Dalton meets college student Camille at the luxury resort where they both work. It is interesting that they both succumb to the whole insta-love at the very beginning. Because come on, surely Dalton has plenty of choices from the females, especially working as a bar/club manager. And it was sure funny when Camille was explaining to Dalton about insta-love.

    Read as a dual point of view, their instant chemistry was very insta-love and lots of sex, although there is nothing wrong with that, after all this is a romance novel.

    Predictable story line, good development of characters, along with supporting characters. Some issues with sentence structures, overall an entertaining read.

    So very worth the wait, another beautiful story in the new ( Gentry Kids) series
    Cami and Dalton are perfectly matched, lots of banter and sizzling sexual chemistry between the two.
    Looking forward to the next book in the series. Congratulations Cora

    Cami returns home after losing her job and gets a job at the local summer spa, that’s where things change, and she meets Dalton. Her mum always said love was like a lightening strike and she didn’t know what she meant then she met Dalton. Something about him has her thinking about him all the time but they’ve only just met.
    Dalton is just filling in time till running the nightclub for his friend, and getting out of a bad relationship he certainly it’s looking for anything. When he meets Cami he knows there’s something special about her, he knows she not a one night girl, she’s a forever girl. The only thing he knows he needs to do is convince the Gentry’s that he’s serious about her.

    OMG!!!!!..... Cora has nailed it once again and brought us back to the wonderland world of the Gentry's,I absolutely loved this book I say this about all of Cora's books. I know, I know it sounds like I'm sighlty biased, but the woman is freaking amazing!... your drawn into this story from the first page, the way she has this ability to create such strong emotions between all the characters. Cami and Dalton connect from the start but I love the fact that she doesn't make it an Insta love romance, they have to work through struggles and up's and downs like everyone else and that makes there love more believable than just getting smacked in the face with it. I'm not going to tell you anything to do with the story, I think it's best to just dive right in and get lost in the world go the Gentry's.

    this is a spin off series from the Gentry Boy's books it's about their children, you don't have to have read the Gentry Boy's books to read this one but I strongly recommend that you do so you get the whole family's story.... The only thing i'm going to complain about is i would have loved to have seen more of the rest of the family and yes I know Cora that it's about there kids so they don't need to be there but COME ON when you have loved them all for as long as I have you get damn well attached lol. but seriously this book has it all action, comedy, drama and romance what else could you ask for in a book? and lets not even get started on hot and steamy seen HOT DAMN GIRL! mind blown lol. I loved this book so much and I can not wait until then next book is out!
    So hurry and get get writing girl I need my next fix :)

    I was very lucky to have been given an ARC of this book and I want even asked to write a review for it!

    Congratulations on another slam dunk Cora bring on the next adventure <3

    I'm Home!!! I'm Home!!! sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh* It feels so good to be back in the Gentry fold!!!

    First book in the Gentry Generations and what a fantastic start it is.

    First up is one of Cord Gentry's twins Cami.

    Cami has been off studying Journalism. She's back home for the summer after losing her summer job at a newspaper. Her Uncle Deck has managed to get her a job at the local spa resort where she meets the resorts exclusive nightclub manager Dalton Tremaine. Cami has always heard her mom say about a lightening strike when you find the one but she never expected it at this time in her life.

    Dalton is running the nightclub for his best friend Griffin who he met during his time playing pro baseball. After an injury struck him out of the game he's doing it to fill time whilst he tries start up a training facility for kids to get pro baseball coaching. As soon as he gets a glimpse of Cami he knows she's different. He has been stung by his ex but he knows Cami is nothing like her.

    The resort is very exclusive hosting high profile celebrities and politician's, of course where they are there's always scandal. Somehow Cami and Dalton get caught up amongst it. Cami being a natural reporter starts asking questions that could put her life at risk.

    Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeek i was so excited for this and it did not disappoint. The Gentry series is in my top 10 series of all time and this is looking like it's heading there right along side it.

    I always felt like i was part of the Gentry's. I know that sounds cray cray but i do. The way it's written you feel like you know these people and reading their children's stories gives me massive warm fuzzies!

    Cami is amazing just like her parents. I love how respectful of them she is and it makes my heart soar to see it! Those triplets dragged themselves out of the dirt poor life they had and have managed to raise the best kids ever. I loved the interaction in the family. Cami and Cassie are so close just like twins should be. I love how they sense each others feelings it's wonderful to read. Now Daddy Cord!! He is so different than what i thought he would be and the way he is with his girls actually brought tears to my eyes. Cami is strong and confident and i honestly just loved her!

    Dalton is an amazing addition to the family. He's so sexy i kept imagining him in his baseball gear... phewwwww The loving scenes were wowzers HOT! i mean wall, window, bed, rug... there's plenty to keep the temperature up to sizzling just like in the desert! I loved how logical he was and level headed. Even when Cami tests his patience he knew she was worth it.

    The plot was sweet and full of love but it was also exciting and had twists and turns. I was kept wondering who the baddies were. The writing was impecable as always!

    I loved the relationship that Cami and Dalton had it absolutely filled my heart right to the brim.

    Seeing all the other Gentry's in here just made me sigh with happiness and I'm really really excited to keep seeing them throughout this series. I love the family gatherings!

    I am also excited to see more of Dalton's brother Hale. He sound's yum meeeeeee!

    Massive highly recommend series! I don't think you need to have read the Gentry series to read this one but honestly you would be missing out on one of the best series' ever!

    Camille and Dalton's story was one that was sweet, steamy, made me laugh and had a bit of suspense. I absolutely enjoyed the Gentry family and there was no doubt how much they loved and supported each other. Dalton was a great character and I loved how protective he was of Cam. This story was a great read from the very beginning and ended with a sweet HEA. There were a few editing mistakes in this story but it did not take away from the story and I look forward to reading Cassie's story.
