Resisting Roots
This is my first time reading a yoga based book as well as the first time reading a book by Audrey Carlan and I must say that I really enjoyed the experience. I am someone who knows basically nothing about yoga and this book helps even the beginner understand the lingo and the different postures, this makes the book easy to read. Audrey's writing was good and I loved the dual point of view style of writing as well as the sense of family she added into the book. Genevieve' character was a strong independent woman who was left to shoulder the responsibility of her siblings after their parents died and I really enjoyed the mature personality that the author gave her as well as how she was always putting her family needs first. Trent's character was brilliantly developed as he grew as a person from a player to a family man over the entire novel. The chemistry between Trent and Genevieve was extremely hot especially with the inclusion of the yoga. The secondary characters of both Trent and Genevieve families were well written and added to the depth of the novel. I only wished that there was more of the sporting side included as well as more drama. Overall this was a great book with the combination of romance, yoga and family and I am looking forward to reading the rest of the series.
Rating: 4/5
Plot
Genevieve Harper is a 24 year old hot yoga instructor who life has been filled with responsibility and sacrifice. She is trying to make the most of raising her two sibling after their parents tragic death, this means she definitely has no time for a man or romance.
Trent Fox is a successful baseball player who has the reputation of being a 'player' both on and off the baseball field. He has recently suffered from a torn hamstring which forces him to go to the Lotus House Yoga Center for recuperation. There he meets the gorgeous Genevieve with whom he secures private lessons that end up showing him how sensual the art of yoga can be.
Can love bloom between a woman who is rooted in her life and responsibilities and a man who resits the notion of staying in one place?
