I've been a backup goalie my entire professional career. I've bounced around from team to team, never staying anywhere long enough to feel at home. When I join the Sockeyes, and their starter is injured for the season, I finally have a chance to prove I belong in the league.

My career might be on an upward trajectory, but my personal life is in the dumps. I've become increasingly close to a teammate's estranged and emotionally abused wife, Inga Chowaski, rescuing her from situation after situation, causing friction on the team and disrupting my normally quiet existence.

As I resist my growing attraction to the sweet, shy Inga, I have to wonder who's going to rescue me from myself?

 

Emotional and attention grabbing! The tenth book in Jami Davenport’s Scoring Series from her Seattle Sockeyes franchise is bringing on the feels as backup goalie Vick Marshall gets his turn to shine all while falling for the one woman he shouldn’t want. The characters are well developed, the plot is fraught with tension and sweetness and the connection between the two is really tender and satisfying. I did want more though. There was a lot of angst left on the table here that could have played out more dramatically while portraying Inga’s plight more realistically. That side of the storyline should have delved a little deeper into bringing awareness. There was also a hot spot for Vick that was brought up on several occasions but then glossed over instead of showcasing the reality of his reasoning. Overall, I enjoyed them very much and the story easily held my attention throughout. I highly recommend the series to hockey romance fans that enjoy a close team camaraderie as each player finds their forever love!
