This was my first book by Kristine Allen, but it won’t be my last.
Sydney and Alex meet at a bar and hook up for a one-night-stand. Months later, they meet again when she’s working for her uncle’s foundation (that just so happens to be part of the hockey team franchise).
Of course for Sydney and Alex the heat and chemistry is still there, and undeniable. What starts out as a friends with benefits story blossoms into much more. (And the love scenes are just smoking hot).
I know very little about hockey, (not a huge fan) but you don’t have to be to enjoy this story! It was hot, steamy, funny and romantic. An absolute joy to read!
Not just that, but the story was full of twists and turns I wasn’t expecting, and I could not put it down!
Also, there is a great supporting cast of characters that tie into her other novels (and I’m a sucker for some great world building). It’s not necessary to read Kristine’s other series, but I wish I’d started at the beginning of her list just because all these characters seem so amazing. So, I’m going to remedy that right away and hit up her backlist.
Fantastic story, fantastic writing. Off the charts sexy. All around, an amazing read.
