Second Shot with #76 by Piper Rayne

 

Second Shot with #76 by Piper Rayne is now live!

My mom always said you don't get a second shot at making a first impression. I've remembered that my entire career. Especially since I'm one of the few black men who play professional hockey.

I'm calculated and respectful in the way I speak to my coaches, the owners, and the media. I've never taken a risk... until her.

I could blame it on the fact that for once I pushed away the pressure of my career for the ocean waves, the sand, and good times with my new teammates. But those are excuses because the minute I saw her at the airport, something lit up inside me and the best week of my life was spent with her in my bed.

After our week in paradise, we said goodbye, exchanged phone numbers and both assumed that unless one of us was flying through the other's city on the opposite side of the country, our vacation fling was over.

Then one night after practice I see her. She's here. In my city. Telling me she moved here for a job. If that's not fate tell me what is.

I've never wanted a second shot more than I do this time, but she's determined to leave what we were on the island we left behind.

My rating: 3.5 stars out of 5 stars

My review:

Rounded to 3.5 Stars.

Second Shot with #76 is the fifth book in the Hockey Hotties series.  This series is steamy and full of hot hockey players that are falling into coupledom.  The books can be read as stand-alones but they are better if read in order.  I was looking forward to this book, but I must admit it is not my favorite one of the series.  I didn’t feel as connected to the main characters as I did in the previous ones and the storyline had some twists that I did not like.  I loved the second chance Corey and Ande got when they found each other again after their vacation fling.  They had a strong connection between them, but I didn’t like the villain that was part of the twist or who she was.  I also don’t feel like Corey and Ande’s issue really got resolved, it just got pushed to the side.  Overall, I love the series and was happy to see all the players and their families again.  The connection between the team is strong and they have formed their own little family, so I hope the next book doesn’t ruin that.  I am looking forward to Kane’s book and seeing how his new job works out.

I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.
