Format: Paperback
The Deal by Elle Kennedy is a fun, addictive, and emotionally engaging college romance that perfectly combines witty banter, undeniable chemistry, humor, and heartfelt moments. As the first book in the Off-Campus series, it introduces readers to a memorable couple while setting the tone for a series that is easy to get hooked on. One of the book’s greatest strengths is the chemistry between Hannah and Garrett. Their relationship begins with an arrangement that seems simple enough, but watching their connection evolve into something deeper makes the story incredibly entertaining. Their banter brings plenty of humor, while the more vulnerable moments give the romance genuine emotional depth. I especially enjoyed how the story balances the lighter, steamy side of college romance with more serious personal struggles. Both characters have experiences that shape how they approach relationships, and seeing them learn to trust one another adds substance beneath all the flirting and teasing. Garrett’s persistence and Hannah’s determination create a fun push-and-pull dynamic, while their growing friendship makes the romance feel more meaningful. The story isn’t just about attraction—it’s also about learning to open up, support someone, and realize that love can develop in the most unexpected circumstances. Overall, The Deal is exactly the kind of romance that is easy to binge-read. It’s funny, steamy, emotional, and filled with characters who are hard not to root for. Elle Kennedy delivers a fantastic introduction to the Off-Campus world and leaves readers ready to pick up the next book. ~Robin Stingley~

Phew. The Deal is the perfect blend of humor, heart, and college romance. Elle Kennedy captures the reality of college life so well—the frat parties, the friendships, the hockey players who know exactly who they are and aren’t afraid to own it. It’s fun, messy, and completely addictive. After watching the Off-Campus adaptation on Amazon, I decided to dive into the books, and I have to admit, there are several moments I enjoyed far more on the page. Some scenes just hit differently in the book, bringing even more humor, chemistry, and charm to the story. And Garrett Graham? Absolute perfection. His confidence, quick wit, and effortless charisma had me smiling from beginning to end. But what makes him truly shine is that Hannah never lets him get away with it—she gives it right back, creating the perfect dynamic. Their friendship, banter, and slow transition into something more made this story impossible not to love. Now it’s time for John Logan’s story, and if it’s anything like Garrett’s, I’m all in. Thank you, Elle Kennedy, for creating a series that’s equal parts hilarious, heartfelt, and completely binge-worthy. 🔥📚

Hannah and Garrett have Ethics together. Hannah has aced the class, while Garrett? Not so much. So he hounds Hannah until she agrees to tutor him. Hannah wants nothing to do with the captain of the hockey team, aka a dumb jock. But Hannah wants Justin, a football player to notice her, so she finally makes a deal with Garrett - help her win Justin, and she’ll tutor him through Ethics. But then so much more happens, and along the way, so does romance. The Good, The Bad and Everything In Between (and honestly, it’s all good) -Excellent writing: I’ve been a fan of Elle Kennedy’s Out of Uniform series, and when I heard about this book, there was no doubt I was going to 1-click this book. It’s got two of my favorite things - hockey and the “boy helps girl get other boy until he realizes he wants her for himself” trope. Nothing’s as satisfying as seeing the player fall in love and this completely lived up to my expectations. I would have devoured this book in one sitting except for that pesky need to sleep and actually go to work, which believe me, ticked me off when all I wanted to do was keep reading. I couldn't seem to stop myself from highlighting the witty banter (as you can tell from my fave quotes), and there is so much more to be found. Ms. Kennedy’s writing style flows so well, and she can create characters that you absolutely adore, but aren’t cookie-cutter perfection. Such as... -Incredibly likeable leads: Hannah and Garrett are fantastic, fully realized characters who have lives outside of this romance. You see them live those lives with friends, and their school lives are explored in detail without weighing down the narrative. Hannah stands up for herself, but not shrewish or unsympathetic. Garrett can be crude and completely full of himself, but he's also loving, loyal and determined. The ‘verse builds slowly and in a believable way and allows you to get to know them, and see them run the gamut of emotions. They aren’t friends at first, but they come together out of necessity, but you truly get to the chance to see them become friends then lovers. -There’s some angst, but not by the bucketful: As fully realized characters, neither have had the ideal pasts. Garrett’s was heartbreaking and Hannah’s in particular, is a difficult but an all too common tale. It’s not fair, and it isn’t wrapped up in a bow, but like life, they move on and they live theirs. Even when things go wrong, and it’s a romance, so it’s bound to happen, they eventually talk it out and act like the young adults they are. They're determined to live, not wallow and I adored that about them. “Well, that’s the best revenge right there, Garrett. Living well and being happy is how we get over the s*** in our past.” MILD SPOILER ALERT -They’re friends at first, so there are other people involved: Fair warning, Garrett does have a random or two but it never detracts from the overall romance. Hannah has a huge crush on Justin and it doesn’t just miraculously disappear but once Hannah and Garrett really connect in a romantic way, there is no one else. END SPOILER ALERT -I even loved the secondary characters: All of Garrett’s teammates intrigued me. From Tucker and his cooking, Logan and his need to acronym the hell out of everything, Dean and his man-hoish ways, I want to get to know these guys better, and I really hope that they get a chance to hook up with Hannah’s friends or meet new girls and let me see their stories play out as well. The Bottom Line I loved it. It's an enjoyable story that I can see myself reading again and again, so I highly recommend it. There’s a full ‘verse just waiting to be explored at Briar and I’m really eager to visit it again.

Overall rating: 4.5/5 Spice: 4/5 Narrator: 4/5 Cliffhanger: 1/5 Age: 18+ Full disclosure, I usually find contemporary romance boring, and I hate sports. I picked this up looking for something fluffier than my usual fare, something that didn’t need as much of my focus. I got that and more. 21 books later and I can confidently say Elle Kennedy has a talent for creating characters with extremely relatable, entertaining inner monologues and weaving them into stories with just enough angst to make the fun stories stick with you. I listened to this book before I saw the tv show and I definitely prefer the book. It feels more genuine. I’ve always loved when romance novels interweave the spicy scenes with the plot and this was done beautifully in the book, over multiple scenes and days/weeks (instead of the one scene in the tv show that everything is fixed). Like the tv show, the banter is great. The characters are flawed, but lovable. The love story is believable and the characters are just the right age to believe it when they act like idiots. I think I love a college rom-com. I can remember the roller-coaster ride that stage of life was and be glad I’m off it. Cautions: History of sexual abuse and of child abuse. Underage drinking and marijuana usage. Violence. Profanity. Explicit sexual situations. I absolutely recommend this for those who loved the show or for people who are just looking for a fun spicy time. I’ve now read/listened to all 13 books in the Universe. Twice. Since April. If that doesn’t say how much I enjoyed it, I don’t know what does.

I've had this book on my TBR forever and finally read Garrett Graham and Hannah Wells' story. Of course, the new series helped! I did an immersive read with the audio narrated by Lorelei Avalon and Christian Fox. Both Garrett and Hannah have really tragic pasts which are a big part of the story. Garrett needs a tutor and begs Hannah to help him. In return, he will date her to help her get the attention of a football player she is interested in. The banter between Hannah and Garrett is so good. Very fun. I liked that they had a platonic relationship that turned into more. He was very sweet with her when it came to intimacy. I really enjoyed the narration, too. Both were good, but I really enjoyed Christian Fox as Garrett.

From the very first chapter, I was hooked by the witty banter, undeniable chemistry, and the perfect balance of romance, humor, and emotional depth. Garrett and Hannah are such well-developed characters, and watching their relationship grow from a fake arrangement into something real felt natural and incredibly satisfying. What really stood out to me was how the story wasn’t just about romance. Both characters had their own struggles and personal growth, which made them feel authentic and relatable. The dialogue was sharp and funny, the pacing kept me turning pages, and the chemistry between the main characters was off the charts. If you’re a fan of college sports romances with lovable characters, plenty of laughs, heartfelt moments, and a swoon-worthy love story, this book is a must-read.

So, this is the first book by Elle that I have read. I was seeing this floating around Facebook for free and thought why not I’ll give it a try. So, I clicked the link only to find out I had bought this book ages ago (Don’t judge me). Anyways, I decided that now was the time to actually read it seeing as I’ve had it for ages. And I am so freaking glad I did, this book is stellar!!! I happen to love College romances and this one hit every single one of the marks for me. “I can’t help it. Tolbert seems to respond to my brand of bull It’s a gift.” “Well, I want your gift. Please, master, teach me how to bull.” I absolutely adored this story from the start. Elle pulls you right in with prose and storyline and holds you captive until the last word. Garrett and Hannah are freaking amazing together and their banter is off the charts. I loved every single moment they were together in this book. You could feel their connection bleed from the pages and rush over your skin, keeping you utterly entertained as they bicker and throw sarcastic remarks at each other non-stop. "She darts out the door, leaving me staring after her in frustration. Unbelievable. Every girl at this college would cut her frickin’ arm off to help me out. But this one? Runs away like I just asked her to murder a cat so we could sacrifice it to Satan." Garrett is the bad boy hockey captain on campus, so he’s probably just as you’d imagine. He’s got a huge ego and plows through Puck Bunnies regularly. That’s why when he asks Hannah for her help with the class he’s failing, he doesn’t take No for an answer, his ego won’t allow it. And Hannah tells him No often. Eventually though he wears her down and finds what it takes to make her say yes. At first, she’s hesitant to tutor Garrett because she thinks of him like other’s do, that he’s a dumb jock. But as they start to spend more time together, they become friends. And as their friendship grows you see that he too has demons that he’s trying to overcome. "I’ve never seen anyone who sleeps with so many pillows. Maybe he needs them to cradle his massive ego." Hannah is this sweet, smart girl who has some issues she’s trying to work through. I loved the way Elle handled the mental health aspect in such a realistic way that it causes a visceral reaction. You feel for this girl who went through something so heartbreaking it would scar anyone. Watching as Hannah grows more comfortable with herself and battles her demons to be a more relaxed and open person was so satisfying to see. "With that one teeny tiny word, my heart inflates like a gosh darn helium balloon. Hannah’s trust, meet Garrett’s hands." The care with which Garrett handles Hannah makes your heart ache in your chest with how unbelievably sweet it is. You have this huge hulk of a man taking the time to research and make sure that everything he does is at a slow pace and just perfect, so Hannah doesn’t have a meltdown. I could watch the way he cares for her everyday and never get tired of it. Garrett had me falling head over heels for him in that moment. This beautifully broken couple will give you all the feels. It’s as if each of their broken pieces was looking, searching for a place to call home, and they found it in each other. I burst into the locker room and – Penises! Sweet Jesus. Penises everywhere. Horror slams into me as I register what I’m seeing. This may have been the first book I’ve read by Elle but most certainly won’t be the last. She has created such a wonderful series with these character’s you can’t help but fall madly in love with. Her humor interlaced with the intensity of the story-line, keeps you laughing one minute and has your heart aching in your chest the next. I was left emotionally wrung out but with my heart so utterly happy. I can’t wait to jump into the next story in line with this series, because it’s that addicting!!!

The Deal completely lived up to the hype Okay, I finally understand why everyone loves The Deal so much. 😂 I’m definitely late to the Off-Campus party, but Garrett and Hannah completely won me over. I loved how their relationship started with this little deal between them. Garrett desperately needs Hannah to help him pass his class, and Hannah wants a little help getting another guy’s attention. Of course, things don’t exactly go according to plan. 👀 What I loved most was how natural Garrett and Hannah felt together. Their banter was so much fun, but I also loved watching their friendship grow before everything else started happening. Garrett surprised me too. I expected the typical cocky hockey player, and while he definitely has plenty of confidence 😂, there was so much more to him. Hannah was probably my favorite part of the book. She’s strong, funny, stubborn, and has been through so much. I really appreciated the way Elle Kennedy gave both of them heavier storylines without taking away from the fun and romantic parts of the book. And Garrett Graham… yeah. I get it now. 🏒😂 He was sweet, protective, funny, and completely gone for Hannah once he realized what was happening. This book gave me everything I love in a college sports romance. Great banter, lots of chemistry, friendship, hockey, spice, and characters I actually cared about. Now I completely understand why people have been recommending the Off-Campus series for years. I already moved straight on to The Mistake because apparently this is my life now. 😂📚 Definitely recommend this one if you love hockey romance, college romance, friends to lovers, fake dating vibes, and a MMC who falls harder than he expected. * 🏒 College hockey romance * 📚 Tutoring / study partners * 💕 Friends to lovers * 🎭 Fake dating * 🔥 Slow-burn-ish chemistry * 😍 He falls first * 🏒 Popular hockey player x smart, independent heroine * 💗 Opposites attract * 🫶 Emotional healing * 🏠 College campus setting * 😏 Lots of banter * 🌶️ Spicy romance
