She's good at achieving her goals . . . College senior Sabrina James has her whole future planned out: graduate from college, kick butt in law school, and land a high-paying job at a cut-throat firm. Her path to escaping her shameful past certainly doesn't include a gorgeous hockey player who believes in love at first sight. One night of sizzling heat and surprising tenderness is all she's willing to give John Tucker, but sometimes, one night is all it takes for your entire life to change. But the game just got a whole lot more complicated . . . Tucker believes being a team player is as important as being the star. On the ice, he's fine staying out of the spotlight, but when it comes to becoming a daddy at the age of twenty-two, he refuses to be a bench warmer. It doesn't hurt that the soon-to-be mother of his child is beautiful, whip-smart, and keeps him on his toes. The problem is, Sabrina's heart is locked up tight, and the fiery brunette is too stubborn to accept his help. If he wants a life with the woman of his dreams, he'll have to convince her that some goals can only be made with an assist . . . Praise for Elle Kennedy: 'Delicious, complicated and drama-filled . . . I read it in one sitting, and you will, too' L. J. Shen, USA Today bestselling author 'A deliciously sexy story with a wallop of emotions that sneaks up on you' Vi Keeland, No.1 New York Times bestselling author 'Elle Kennedy delivers another sexy and addictive read, and my latest personal favourite from her!' Tijan, New York Times bestselling author Review: Gonna miss them being in college - I absolutely loved Tucker and Sabrina. They complimented each other's personalities perfectly as well as they stood out on their own. In the initial half of the story, I felt as we didn't get enough moments with the friends....but then, we got enough towards the end. So, no complaints there. It was good! Review: Really good book. - The two protagonist are Tucker and Sabrina. Tucker is a hockey player and one of the most laid back, not to mention genuinely, good guys you would find. Sabrina is often seen as cold-hearted, which is not the case. She’s had a difficult life and she wants to make it better. That means that she has to work very hard to achieve her goals. Between her bad home life, college work, two jobs and plans for future education, she doesn’t have time to play nice with everyone. There’s nothing wrong with having goals and not wanting anyone or anything to get in your way. If that makes her a bad person, then I guess I’m one too. Anyway, Sabrina and Tucker meet at a party. There’s a one night stand and they plan to go their separate ways. But Tucker likes her and he wants more, a relationship. Sabrina doesn’t have the time so they compromise, meeting when they can. Then Sabrina gets pregnant. And no, that’s not a spoiler. Not only is it mentioned at the end of the previous book, it’s also in the official synopsis. Though I wouldn’t look forward to it too much because it doesn’t happen for a long time. When it does happen, thing’s get even more complicated. I think it was after this point that people started to dislike Sabrina. You see, Sabrina is quite distant with Tucker. She avoids him, refuses to commit or to talk about things. Tucker is very patient with her. This, I think, makes people think that she’s not good enough for him. The thing is though, Sabrina cares about him a lot. It’s very clear from all the chapters from her perspective. She thinks he’s the best kind of guy and that with the pregnancy, she’s trapping him or ruining his opportunities. They’re both unsure about their feelings for each other but Tucker doesn’t want to push her into the conversation while Sabrina’s insecurities stop her from doing anything to rock the boat. Things are still good between. It’s not like they’re treating each other poorly. You can see how they feel about each other. Just… the part where they profess their undying love for each other is delayed. Nothing wrong with that, right? Actions speak louder than words, and all that. Overall, I really liked this novel. I’ll admit that the refusal to have-the-big-fucking-conversation-already was a little exhausting at times. But it was a great story, had some really fun parts with Tucker’s friends, and had a good relationship between two great characters. My faith is Elle Kennedy is at an all-time high. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #8,987 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #11 in New Adult & College Romance #31 in Contemporary Romance (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 55,060 Reviews | ## Images ![The Goal - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/813AF8JJTgL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gonna miss them being in college *by L***B on 11 December 2025* I absolutely loved Tucker and Sabrina.

It's a promising read with a strong start but it left me feeling like the latter portion doesn’t quite match up to the full potential the book has. when I started reading the book I was so hooked, I thought it's definitely 4 stars read because of their chemistry. I was intrigued by Sabrina and how good Tuck was. After 30% everything starts to feel a bit boring due to the unnecessary scenes among Hope, Carin and Sabrina where I would have loved to read more about Tuck-Sabrina. Initially Tuck-Sabrina chemistry kept me invested in the book but after 60% in the book their interaction became less and less and there were so many unnecessary scenes of side characters. What really forced me to reduce the rating from 3.75 to 3.5 stars is how Dean was sidelined. There were so many moments where Garrett and Logan were mentioned but Dean wasn't, it felt so odd. Also there were so less scenes of the boys instead the book was filled with Carin nd Hope. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/591403511-the-goal](https://www.desertcart.be/products/591403511-the-goal) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
