Powerless takes place in the beautiful Canadian Rockies and is Book 3 in the Chestnut Springs series. The story opens with Jasper coming to Sloane’s rescue when she decides to leave her fiancé on their wedding day. Jasper and Sloane have known each other for many years. This is a fun friends to lovers story mixed…
Calling The Shots is a perfectly acceptable little slice of hockey romance that has decent conflict, likeable characters, and a romance worth rooting for. But Farmer’s just-okay way of telling the story makes this one a mid-level read. Confident former bad girl of the rink Regan Lane’s coaching career is in a less-than-winning place at…
A standout read of my recent Sarina Bowen binge was the delightful novella Blonde Date, which used to be available by itself but is now only available in the Extra Credit anthology. Blonde Date Grade: A Sensuality: Warm If you’ve kept up with The Ivy Years series, you’ll remember…
Although Contract Season is book two in Cait Nary’s Trade Season series, it can be read as a standalone; the principals from book one, Season’s Change, make a brief cameo appearance, but you don’t need to have read their story to understand this one. Like that book, this one gets off to a good start…
I’m a fan of the vacation fling trope in romances, ones where the characters meet up again later and develop an actual relationship. So when I heard that Kelly Jamieson’s most recent release, Good Hands would feature this within her current hockey series (Bears Hockey II) I was quite excited to get my hands on…
Note: As this book is both a sequel and the finale to a long-running series, there will be spoilers for earlier books in this review. Rachel Reid’s The Long Game is the final book in her Game Changers series of romances set in the world of professional hockey – and, most importantly, the long and…
Make It Sweet by Kristen Callihan was my favorite romance read of 2021. (You can view the rest of that list HERE). The first time I read it, I was swept away by the characters, the story, and the feelings it evoked in me. Now that I’ve read it a second time, I can articulate…
Season’s Change is the début novel from Cait Nary, a sports romance set in the world of professional hockey that follows veteran (at twenty-four!) player Olly Järvinen and rookie Benji Bryzinski through a hockey season as they go from roommates to friends to lovers. It gets off to an incredibly strong start and I was…
There’s been a mini-epidemic of Canadian and American lady hockey players entering into lovelocks, marriage and childrearing together – prime romance novel material. Thus I’ve been yearning for more F/F centered hockey romances (there is a bumper crop of het and M/M ones in the genre), and Unexpected Goals was just the treat I was…
This fifth book in Rachel Reid’s Game Changers series is a fantastic read and has immediately gone onto both my keeper shelf and my list of series favourites (alongside Heated Rivalry and Common Goal). At the heart or Role Model lies a gorgeous, sweet and sexy opposites-attract romance, but the story also incorporates some serious…
