My name is Conner Garrison and I’m a failure.

The men in my family are some of the most successful hockey players of all time, and I’m about to get dropped from the entire league. How do I face them?

Avoiding my large, well-meaning, but invasive family is how I end up face-to-face with my childhood crush at midnight. And I happen to be as naked as the day I was born.

Mackenzie ‘Mac’ Larue is five years older than me, gorgeous, and about to become a doctor. She’s also dealing with a crushed ego, thanks to a bad ex-boyfriend. Finally, something I can fix.

I might not be able to save my career but I can help this incredible woman rebuild her confidence. As a friend. She sees me as a work project, nothing else.

But the more time we spend together, the more I start to believe that if I can earn back my career, maybe I can earn her heart her too.

 

Sassy and fun new hockey series from Victoria Denault! Hot hockey player down on his luck collides with sexy new doc feeling the slump of heartache … and the rest as they say is history! The banter is adorable, the passion is steamy and the heart is so utterly perfect. I loved the main characters and there’s so many great supporting members of the team and the fam that sparkle on the pages as well. I can’t wait to see where Denault takes this series next.

Conner is a great character because he’s a hunky hockey stud who is taken down a notch when he has to come to terms with the world not working exactly as he had planned and learning to breath and pick up the pieces with the best of us. I adored his family and he really grew with this experience.

Mac is a doll and I really liked them together. Her life could have used a bit more development, but the angst was there.

I recommend this book to hockey fans who enjoy a new set of characters to sink your teeth into and get to know.
