Grip it softly.
Stroke it smooth.
And you’ll sink right into the hole. That’s my motto both on and off the golf course. The women come in full supply everywhere I go and there are no complaints. Maybe it’s the size of my driver that gets them going.
I’m Lucas “Ace” Montgomery, professional golfer and world record holder for the longest drive in golf history. The PGA Tour has been my life, but it’s time for a break. A few relaxing weeks of drinking and golf with friends in Myrtle Beach is what I need. However, when a bright pink ball knocks me out on the course, and a blonde beauty comes to my aid, I expect to see a gallery girl, a.k.a a member of the Party Groupie Association. Trust me, those girls know how to have fun. Although, to my surprise, it’s not what I get at all.
Dr. Ashley Locke is beautiful and everything I’d want if I was ever to get serious about someone. Unfortunately, she has no interest in me whatsoever which only makes me want her more. All she wants is to get through her friend’s bachelorette weekend and go back to her life, but after injuring me on the course, I’m not letting her run away so easily. When I want something, I get it.
I’m not competing for money this time. All I want is to win her heart.

REVIEW: GOING FOR THE HOLE by LP Dover is a stand alone, romance story line focusing on professional golfer Lucas ‘Ace’ Montgomery, and physician Dr. Ashley Locke. There is a slight cross-over with the author’s BREAKAWAY series byway of a couple of cameo appearances, and the mention of the Charlotte Strikers.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Lucas and Ashley) GOING FOR THE HOLE follows the building relationship between professional golfer Lucas ‘Ace’ Montgomery, and physician Dr. Ashley Locke. Needing some down time, away from the grind of the PGA tour Lucas Montgomery, his brother and caddie Aiden, and best friend Noah Bradfield booked some R&R in Myrtle Beach, R&R that would change each of their futures, for the better. Enter Dr. Ashley Locke, in town for her brother’s fiancee’s bachelorette weekend, and the woman with whom Lucas would fall in love. What ensues is the quick building relationship and romance between Lucas and Ashley, and the potential fall-out as Ashley is confronted by a perceived betrayal.
Dr.Ashley Locke has no idea that the man with whom she will fall in love is a successful and professional golfer; a manwh*re by reputation, and a media target both on and off of the green. Struggling to let Lucas into her heart, Ashley is ever vigilant of the possible ramifications of media exposure on her career and that of her family practice. Lucas Montgomery knows he has found his happily ever after but not everything goes according to plan when a private conversation becomes fodder for the paparazzi and a struggling journalist.
The relationship between Ashley and Lucas begins as a one-night stand but Lucas wants more than Ashley is willing to give. Hoping to convince Ashley take a chance, Lucas begins a slow seduction of our story line heroine. The $ex scenes are passionate and intimate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.
We are introduced to Ashley’s best friend Harper Welch who has caught the eye of Noah Bradfield: and Aiden Montgomery who finds himself attracted to a woman who could possibly betray them all.
GOING FOR THE HOLE is a delightful, realistic and spirited story line. The premise is energetic and satisfying; the characters are sassy, enthusiastic and animated; the romance is seductive and hot. GOING FOR THE HOLE is a captivating and engaging tale.

I shook my head. “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”
“I took a needle in the ass for you. Surely, that deserves more of your attention?”
Why did he always have to give me that devilish smile of his? As much as I wanted to hate it, I couldn’t.“Why are you doing this? Can’t you find someone else?”
“Of course I can, but I want you. We can have secret meetings in here if you’re still embarrassed to be seen in public with me.”
I rolled my eyes. “I’m not embarrassed. You’re you, and I’m a respectable member of society.”
He burst out laughing. “Okay, I see how it is.”
“I just don’t want the publicity,” I added. “You can understand that, right? You of all people should know what it’s like not to have privacy.”
His smile faded. “You’re right, I do, but it’s my life. I can’t change who I am.” My body shivered with the intensity of his stare. “For once, I thought I’d found someone who wanted me for me and not my money or fame.”
Guilt racked my body and I sighed. “Okay, I give in. I can see you tomorrow, after I get out of the spa. Maybe we can order in room service.”
Eyes twinkling, he went over to the door and opened it. “Now that’s a plan I can get behind.”
Before I could walk out, he stood in my way, body close to mine. “I’m going to break through that ice wall of yours, sunshine. One way or another.”
I batted my eyelashes in an innocent matter. “Good luck with that.”
