Childhood crushes reunite in this spicy friends-to-lovers hockey romance.

Daniel “Bellzie” Bellamy should be on top of the world—a Stanley Cup is the perfect topper to his fourteen-year NHL career. But despite the post-win high, something’s missing. When the chance to play for his hometown team, the Miami Thunder, comes along, he’s open to it. And when he runs into an old friend from his past soon after he makes the move, he wonders if it might be kismet.

Micah Kelly never thought he’d see his childhood crush—and first kiss—again. Danny Bellamy moved on to bigger and better things when they were teenagers, and the idea that Micah’s relationship with the professional hockey player could be anything more than one-sided Instagram thirst seems too good to be true.

Maybe too good to be true is the new reality, though. As the season goes on, Micah teaches Daniel to surf, and Daniel introduces Micah to his lovable pack of rescue dogs and the world of being a hockey boyfriend. Life is good. But when things on the ice don’t go as planned, they’ll have to decide if their rediscovered romance is built to last.

Really enjoyed

I was really excited for this story. I loved Daniel and Micah. I thought the storyline was perfect. There were just some chapters that the chemistry sort of fell off for me. I don’t know if it was because Daniel and his ex stayed so close. It was strange but didn’t ruin the book for me

Kirt Graves narration amazing as always

Amazing!

It just doesn’t get any better than this book! I love this series and this one may be my favorite. Daniel and Micah are so right together! It’s full of so much love and caring and mixed with a little humor. The narration was excellent as well. I hope we see Trevor in the next book!

Cute story, but…

I really enjoyed the story itself but I listened to the audio version and, as a hockey fan, I kept getting pulled out of the story each time a player’s name was mispronounced or a typical move was misnamed. My advice would be to research hockey and have your narrators so the same. There is absolutely no reason to mispronounce Ovechkin in a book about hockey. You lose all credibility.

Wow... great series

A very enjoyable sports romance series. I especially liked this last one... no 3rd act break-up to add drama... just a well written story about two people with great communication skills. Kirt, as usual, doesn’t disappoint and performs flawlessly.

excellent

this is my favorite of the series. adult communcation, no third act break up. adults being adults and finding love and romance. Kirk Graves narration is excellent as always.

I had a lot of fun listening to this book. I've been looking for a good hockey book.

Awesome!!

I loved this book very much!! I really liked the proposal at the end! There was tons of funny, sad, and deep moments and it all fit well together! I loved the ups and downs and I loved how they held each other together! I’m so happy they found each other in the end! Kirt Graves is an awesome narrator and gave every one an awesome and unique voice!! I have no words at all!! He is one of my favorite voices to listen to while listening to a book! I know what this series is complete but I would really like to see more in this universe! I want to know what the tidbit was about between Trevor Morley and Seth Volt if there was something there!!!

Second chance first love

A really sweet second chance romance with first love. Facing the tail end of his pro hockey career, Bellamy upends his whole life to return home and turn around a flailing team. Of course it never quite happens the way you plan. The team is a total disaster. But life, life is another story. Back in his home town near his parents with his ex and kids making the move too, life outside of hockey. Throw in reconnecting with your first crush who you haven’t seen since age 15, and tough professional choices become easier. The support from the family they choose is even sweeter. Some short-lived low angst moments and a few funny twists keep this light romance fun.

High hopes dashed.

I had high hopes for Daniel's story. But Micha's character was turn off. He comes off dismissive and snutty. It was hard to make a connection with the character.
A few times he seems endearing, but it felt like he didn't deserve Daniel's gentle loving nature. Overall the series was very sweet. MM romances rarely disappoint.
