Another great addition to the Baltimore Banners series!
This is a series that always brings something fresh to each new story...yes it revolves around hockey but additionally brings to life the personal story behind each player. This time it is goalie Corbin Gauthier and Lori Evans’ story.
Corbin has been away from the Banners for 8 years. Before leaving the Banners, Ian Donovan (who is now the Banners’ head coach) had continually threatened Corbin, warning him away from Lori, who is his niece. (As an aside, we never learn why Ian was so against Corbin being involved with Lori...). Upon returning, he comes face-to-face with Lori, the one woman he’s never been able to forget.
Lori has never forgotten Corbin, even though he left without a goodbye. She has grown up and doesn’t consider Corbin off limits.
But when drama erupts, how far will Corbin go to protect Lori?
This is a wonderful second chance love story. Will Lori be able to convince Corbin (and her uncle, for that matter), that she’s an adult and can make her own decisions? How will the drama in the story effect their relationship?
I’ve said this before about other stories in this series and it is true again, whether you are a hockey fan or not, you will enjoy this one!
I voluntarily read an advanced reader copy of this book, however, this is my honest opinion.
