Fall To Me: The New York Blaze Hockey Series Book 2
River and your swoon-worthy book boyfriend, Carter, are back to tell their story in this heart-gripping, page-turning romance.
River
Carter Graham has been after me for a year now; leaving my favorite coffee on my desk every morning, showing up when I think I’ve successfully avoided him. I don’t want to find him attractive. God, I really don’t. Every time he pierces me with those glacier-blue eyes, it feels like he sees right down to the depths of my soul. I become confused, my pulse races, my cheeks warm, and tingles spread throughout my body. It literally feels like the ground shifts under my feet. Usually, that’s when I run. Running is something I’ve become very good at.
Carter
River Hendrix. Man, I’ve had it bad for that woman since the day I laid eyes on her. She took my breath away. But it wasn’t only her beauty that shook me, it was how she looked at me like I was an idiot when I held out my hand to shake hers. Since then, that girl has lit me up and torn me down in the same breath. Chasing her is a high that makes me feel more alive than I’ve ever felt in my life. Every glance, every time she brushes me off, or pops off with one of her smart remarks, only makes me crave her more. The more she turns me down; the more determined I become. I’m not one to give up easily. I don’t quit . . . ever. Mark my words. One day, she will be mine.
After a painful divorce, River is still piecing herself back together, wary of letting anyone in. Carter is relentless, determined to win her heart. When a wild night in Vegas ends in an accidental marriage, they’re forced to confront what they truly want. Will River’s past destroy their chance at happiness?
Or will Carter prove he’s worth the risk?

This book is an interconnected stand-alone and ends in an HEA.

3,5 🏒❤️🔥💘⭐️s
Carter and River’s journey was intriguing, romantic and had some intense moments.
There were a few times though that the flow lost its harmony.
Regardless, I liked their chemistry and connection and enjoyed their story a lot!

One of the easiest 5 stars I've ever given. This book is actually perfect. Zero critique.
Both MCs are amazing, well rounded, and there is so much healing and growth. Not to mention, it's hilarious, side characters are awesome, no one ever acts like an overly dramatic fool, it flowed perfectly and there are twists and action at the end. Absolutely perfect.

Fall To Me didn’t just end my reading slump. It grabbed me by the face, kissed my forehead, and said “we’re back, baby.” From page one I was gone. Fully unwell. I was sneaking chapters like it was contraband. Finished in two days because I physically could not stop. The characters felt like they marched right into my heart and claimed squatter’s rights. Every moment pulled me deeper until suddenly it was 3AM and I had no regrets. Like thank you Elysia for saving my serotonin levels. I love her, I love this story, and I am absolutely feral waiting for the rest of the series. If you need a book that reminds you why we read… respectfully… this one.

I've officially sold my soul to Carter Graham.
My second hockey romance... and I don't even like hockey. But I'll freeze my arse off to watch this man any damn day of the week.
And if you don't wanna grow up to be River? Do you actually have goals? A fierce, strong, badass survivor that's more than relatable and takes her OWN route to self discovery? Yes, please.
This book has everything. I laughed. I cried. I scrumpt. I drank a gallon of water.
It'll be the best book you read this year. And yall get your significant others ready for the relief you'll need after the spice in here. Just go read it. Trust me.

“Who are you, River?”
“That’s exactly how I see you. Those are just a few of the many reasons why I fell in love with you.”
Let me take a deep breath here and clap for another unapologetic beautifully written book by Miss Wages.
The moment I finished book 1 and seeing Carter call River “his wife” and stake claim put me in automatic feral mode and this book did not disappoint.
While book 1 was full of emotional damage and toll Cal went through and we painfully endured that with him, whereas this one to me felt more of a book about the healing journey itself and we rode that journey with River. We watched River grow into rediscovering who she is after a very traumatic moment in her past and other past experience. We walked hand in hand with her as she began to see what a true and healthy relationship is supposed to be and what that looks like, thanks to none other than Carter Graham himself. Oh, and hell, why not throw in a drunken Vegas escapade to catalyze this journey and pairing.
Carter Graham — this MAN 🤌🏻🤌🏻😩. I’m in love with this man. He fights and loves this woman. Every. Single. Day. Since book 1. But he chooses her. Every. Day. And he is so emotionally mature (which balances his Fight Club vibe) that he is the perfect balance for River and her healing journey. Does he make mistakes? Yes. They both do. But what’s also amazing about this series is that these relationships are relatable, realistic, and healthy.
Oh and the spice 🥵🤌🏻 — well worth the bit of a slow burn and tension to get there but damn, the mouth on both of these two. 😮💨
As mentioned, this book isn’t as emotionally gut punching as book one but is very triggering and has heavy themes— definitely moments I stopped breathing while reading certain sections.
I am very much looking forward to book 3 for Sean and Hannah and getting more of our book 1 and 2 couples.
Also, here’s some (just some) moments that made my knees week for Carter:
—“A lifetime with you will never be enough. My heart belongs to you. Always. Forever. Even after I’m gone, when my bones turn to dust, my soul will find its way back to you, and I’ll love you all over again.”
—“You’re my obsession. An unhealthy form of addiction. My fatal flaw. You may very well be my demise. You could wreck me. Ruin me. Crush my fucking soul. The power has always been yours.”
—“Damn, you’re stunning. I’m going to break you in the best fucking way. Fuck you until you can’t see straight. Make you scream my name for everyone in that goddamn house to hear,”
—“My wife is fucking delicious.”
—“[...] Pull your hair, choke you, spank you . . . tie you up . . . manipulate the fuck out of your body, watch you submit to me and fall apart in the most beautiful, fucking, erotic way with my name spilling from your lips. I don’t want to control you. I want to worship every inch of you. There’s power in dominance, but there’s far more in submission. I may hold the lock, but you’ll always hold the goddamn key.”
—“Loving her will never be a sacrifice. Nor will anything that comes along with it.”
“That’s exactly how I see you. Those are just a few of the many reasons why I fell in love with you.”

This book had me absolutely hooked from the very first page. The prologue literally had my heart all twisted and I knew I was in this fully. It took me two days to read this because I literally couldn't stop. Everything about this book was so incredible. The characters were amazing ans so incredibly full of personalities. The storyline was top notch. The smexy time was hottttt!
Carter is everything and more someone could ever want from a man. He's perfect in every single way. Okay, maybe not when he psychoanalizes you lol but I mean I could totally handle that flaw 🤣
River is the sweetest woman ever. Her heart is bigger than anything. She cares and loves deeply for everyone, except herself.
The connection that Carter and River has is absolutely untouchable. And beautiful. The way he sees her. The way he adores her. The way he loved her. The way she loves him but tries to hide it. Gahh. Everything. I'm literally obsessed with everything about this book.
Buuuut I need more of them! I need to see what their future is like. I need to see that broken past truly in the past. I need more of them like I need water!

I was left speechless with this book. This is one of those books that you said omg another hockey story but them OMG - WTF is this - Just fantastic, i loved everything about this story. This book would teach you that being persistent always works at the end of the day! Carter Graham stole my heart from the very first page, the love he feels for our girl River is unbelievably beautiful. He fought for that love until the last page, just true love all over this book. And OMG can we talk how funny half of the book is I mean i was laughing my ass off, not every author can do that.
I loved the way the story develops. The twist and turn that Elysia gives us. It is definitely an emotional roller coaster to read, our girl River went through some trauma that NO woman should live but the way she builds herself stronger thanks to our gorgeous MMC. Just phenomenal.

Omg.. I cannot get the MMC out of my mind! This was one of the best love stories that I’ve read all year!!! Carter… yummy yummmm!! If he isn’t your new book boyfriend after this then there must be something the matter! This author does such a great job at storytelling and developing her characters…So much so it feels like I personally know them. Both main characters were introduced in book one so I think it’s necessary to read it first. The FMC River, is one badass tough cookie!! She unfortunately went through some DV early on and the MMC Carter is the rock she didn’t know she needed. And the spicy scenes are incredible… make note of the audio book scene 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ I absolutely loved and devoured this book!

If you are looking for the perfect book boyfriend stop. You just found him. Elysia has done it again. She has made me fall in love with another couple that I don't think I can live without. The feelings this book made me feel were so overwhelming and beautiful.
The relationship between these two characters is so beautiful. Watching River a victim of DV learn to love again is absolutely beautiful. Carter is everything she needs through every step of their relationship. It just makes it more fun to see where they start off.
I can't wait to see where this series leads. It has been my favorite introduction to the sports romance.

PHENOMENAL!!! OMG I am obsessed! The MC’s are both so charismatic and swoon-worthy. River is so strong, fighting against previous trauma, and has such amazing character growth. Carter is almost perfect! Almost! They accidentally get married, but can they survive? Please read their story. Their connection is beautiful and ugly, sexy and spicy, easy and difficult. Their banter is hilarious and their love for each other is breathtaking. So many life lessons are learned. I laughed, cried, gasped and tingled. Highly recommend this book and series.

Oh geez this book starts out in such a fun way! Book two in the series and we are exploring Carter and River. She’s a DV survivor and resistant to starting a relationship with this hockey hunk. The way he pursues her with so much patience is everything. This couple makes me laugh and their spice is plenty hot. The flow of the story is great and you get more background and some surprises for other characters in the series too. Definitely had me in my feelings and crying a few times. Ended with a big fat HEA. Just like I love. I definitely recommend it and it can totally be read as a standalone but I think it’s more fun as a part of the series.
October 7, 2025
I’m so excited to share how much I loved this book. I think I may have enjoyed it even more than the first! I already adored the glimpses of River and Carter in book one, so I knew their story wouldn’t disappoint. River’s fiery spirit paired with Carter’s unwavering persistence made them the perfect match. The way they pushed each other to grow, discover themselves, and build something stronger together was beautifully written. I absolutely love these two!
October 23, 2025
Absolutely love this series. Carter and River’s story is so heartwarming and touching. This series is amazingly written and will absolutely have you feeling all the feelings. I highly recommend The New York Blaze Hockey series. You will not regret it.

Carter is one of the best MMCs ever. Overall romantic suspense plot was solid. I just don’t think I enjoy the side character/interpersonal relationship drama. It reads very immature to me.

always wanting more
You always make it where I always want more!! You kill it every time and I love how you write! Truly a blessing and gift.

I’m embarrassed to say it took me so long to get through this BUT let my clarify that I was doing a TON of driving and going on work trips so I didn’t have much time to pick up the physical, otherwise I woulda devoured it!
Carter is such an amazing golden retriever. The patience this man had… he is a saint. Our FMC, River, has been through it and is on a healing journey. No one could have been better than Carter. A hottie with all the patience in the world, he knows how to read her emotions and all the right things to say. The one time he lost it was sooooo understanding. You can only take sooo much. I loved that scene. It was so heartbreaking.

Holy sh!t!!! This story is an emotional rollercoaster with some twists and turns!! And let’s be real he falls first is one of my ultimate favorite tropes. Carter and River are everything together and the way he treats her like a goddess I am obsessed. I don’t like telling spoilers but the way River finds her true self is truly amazing.
Please check your triggers.

SUMMARY:
Carter Graham has been after River Hendrix for a year now; leaving her favorite coffee on her desk every morning, showing up when she thinks she'd successfully avoided him. River doesn’t want to find him attractive. Every time he pierces her with those glacier-blue eyes, it feels like he sees right down to the depths of her soul. It literally feels like the ground shifts under her feet. Usually, that’s when she runs. Running is something she'd become very good at. Carter had it bad for River since the day he laid eyes on her. But it wasn’t only her beauty that shook him, it was how she looked at him. Since then, that girl has lit him up and torn him down in the same breath. Chasing her is a high that makes Carter feel more alive than he'd ever felt in his life. After a painful divorce, River is still piecing herself back together, wary of letting anyone in. Carter is relentless, determined to win her heart. When a wild night in Vegas ends in an accidental marriage, they’re forced to confront what they truly want. Will River’s past destroy their chance at happiness? Or will Carter prove he’s worth the risk?
REVIEW:
Fall to Me is the second book in Elysia Wages' New York Blaze Hockey series that continues River and Carter's love story from the first book. Carter Graham has been after River Hendrix for a year now but things take a turn on the night of Aspen and Callan's couple bachelor and bachelorette party in Las Vegas. Everyone at the party is paired up to complete the live bingo card with the completion of each task ending in a shot which is where River and Carter as a pair end up getting so drunk that they get married. When River proposed to Carter and they got married in Las Vegas while both were drunk out of their minds was such a funny moment especially since even though they didn't mean to get married it changed their lives for the better.
River has been running from her abusive ex-husband which landed her in NYC with her sister where she meets Carter who though she had an instant attraction to was not going to let him catch her. It was such a surprising and exciting moment when River and Carter find out that they were pregnant and on top of that they were expecting fraternal twins which River blamed on Carter as he is a twin but found out that twins come from the mother's side. Elysia Wages delivered a fund forced proximity one bed workplace romance that had me smiling and giggling with everything developing in the right direction for River and Carter. I enjoyed finally reading the journey River goes on to heal from her past with the help from Carter who breaks down the walls she had built around her heart. There was a part that had me thinking they wouldn't get their HEA but I'm glad they finally found love.

I read a lot like most other readers on this app, and oftentimes, it's tough for me to remember what happened in a book after I read the last page.
This book? This book was *not* one of those books.
From the prologue that ripped your heart out of your chest to the hilarious moments with Carter in the car (IYKYK) to the ending that... well, not to be melodramatic but... absolutely left me breathless, there's not a moment in this story that I can't tell you about.
The characters are fleshed out, the storylines are real and raw, and the emotions Fall To Me evokes are so deep and relatable.
I'd give this six stars if I had the option.

I’m rating this book just purely off vibes. I loved book 1, but this book just hit different and the characters, the developments, the storyline, it makes me love book 2 more! Carter and River were just so perfect to me, and the suspense literally had me in a chokehold. Read this book if you love hockey romances, romantic suspense, a mouthy mmc who loves to fight, and a badass fmc who doesn’t let a man or anyone define her. Carter has always been my favorite since book 1 mainly because he knew what he wanted from the start and wasn’t going to let her go. Highly highly recommend and I cannot wait for the rest of this series!!
December 30, 2025
Man oh man, I flew through this book. Book 1 was incredible, but Book 2 had me in a CHOKEHOLD. I loved River and Carter so much. The strength, resilience, the UNDERSTANDING. Not to mention, the most perfect enemies to lovers representation. I’m dreading the wait for book 3, uggghh.
OBSESSED.
