Synopsis
“Who just stole my thunder across the Hafton airwaves, you ask? Right now, right this very second, listeners, I have Hafton’s one-and-only, the main man with the ball in hand, Blane Steele is in the studio. Mark my words—he’ll not only steal the ball, but your lady’s heart too. Watch out, gentlemen, the Stealer is in the house!”
— Sonny Be Knocking Boots, Hafton Radio 96.9
Coed antics.
Chaos.
Angst-ridden twists in fate.
Caterina is an intern. Sonny is her shock-jock boss. And Blane is a good-hearted baller…except when he steps on the court. Between on-air dares, an evil feminist professor, a straight-shooter of a coach, and rumors from the league surrounding Steele, these three are destined to screw it all up.
Rather than a love triangle, this is a friends-to-lovers story where the disc jockey acts as the catalyst, and a basketball player finds his life transformed when center court intersects with love.
Virginia’s Review
I’ve been with Rachel from the beginning. I’ve read all her books- usually beta reading them. And I know I have said it before but she has come so far since her first book. It’s amazing to see her growth and development as a writer.
I love this series!! I really do. Anyone who knows me knows that Book 1, Verite, is one of my favorite books EVER. I mean ever. I shouted from the rooftops how much I loved Verite for months. Ok, it wasn’t the rooftops, it was all over social media. But you get the point. Dolce, which is book 2 in the series, did not disappoint.
Dolce picks up a few years after Verite left off. Here we have a new set of characters but they are all as lovable as the ones in Verite. Blaine is Hafton University’s star basketball player. He’s also a big manwhore. Catie is an intern at the University’s radio station. She’s also a feminist.
Complete opposites, right? Right. Blane comes across Catie at the radio station and that is that. He wants her. Of course she isn’t impressed with his advances. Throw in a bet from the radio station’s manager and we have the start of a fabulous story.
Blane is awesome. He really is. Besides being hot, he’s funny as hell. Catie is great. She’s not super thin and not super pretty and I loved that about her. She stands up for women and what they deserve and she will do whatever it takes. She’s really sassy and strong willed.
Rachel took the story to a place I never really saw coming. No exaggeration. I never saw the plot going where it did. I was reading. Moving along. Then I was like what?? I messaged her and was like ummmm. You did what?? I honestly would have never thought of taking the story where she did. It was great. So kudos for creativity.
Dolce makes you feel good. You will fall in love with the story and the characters. It’s sweet, it’s funny, it has the right amount of angst. It’s great. And I thought the use of tweets made it really current day. Go one click and fall in love with Dolce!

About the Author
Rachel Blaufeld is a social worker/entrepreneur/blogger turned author. Fearless about sharing her opinion, Rachel captured the ear of stay-at-home and working moms on her blog,BacknGrooveMom, chronicling her adventures in parenting tweens and inventing a product, often at the same time. She has also blogged for The Huffington Post, Modern Mom, and StartupNation.
Turning her focus on her sometimes wild-and-crazy creative side, it only took Rachel two decades to do exactly what she wanted to do—write a fiction novel. Now she spends way too many hours in local coffee shops plotting her ideas. Her tales may all come with a side of angst and naughtiness, but end lusciously.
Rachel lives around the corner from her childhood home in Pennsylvania with her family and two dogs. Her obsessions include running, coffee, icing-filled doughnuts, anti-heroes, and mighty fine epilogues.
