Boone

A Pittsburgh Titans Novel

De: Sawyer Bennett

Narrado por: Jeremy York, Stella Hunter

Boone Rivers uses his fame and fortune as a professional hockey player to his advantage, but not in the way most people would think. Volunteering as often as his busy schedule will allow, Boone meets one brave young boy who turns his world upside down.

As a first-line right winger for the Pittsburgh Titans, I thrive on the thrill of the game. I live for the smell of the ice, the cheer of the crowd and the way my heart pounds whenever I step into the arena. But once I’m out of my skates, my focus is on giving back to the city of Pittsburgh.

It’s funny how life puts people in your path. I meet Aiden while visiting the children’s hospital and I’m struck by the strength and resilience of this 12-year-old kid fighting for his life. As my visits continue, we bond over video games and hockey until one day Aiden’s older sister walks into his room and I realize there might be a bigger purpose here.

Lilly Hoffman has the weight of the world resting on her slight shoulders. Aiden’s illness isn’t getting better, she’s at risk of losing her job and their father is looking for the answers to his prayers at the bottom of a liquor bottle. I find myself wanting to lessen Lilly’s burden and what starts as a simple act of friendship turns into so much more.

As we grow closer, I can’t help but fall for this fiercely protective and independent woman with a tender heart and bruised but not yet broken spirit.

As we face a future of never-ending uncertainty, I vow to be Lilly’s source of strength and comfort. Lilly and Aiden have reaffirmed to me the importance of giving and receiving love unconditionally, even in the darkest of times. And no matter what happens next, no one can take that from us.

Genuine

There may be spoiler alerts in this review. This book is extraordinarily well written and just as extraordinarily performed. I really wish I was an author right now to accurately express the emotion this book helped me to expel. It is not rushed, nor does it stagger. The time line is thorough. The emotions are raw and very human. I am thoroughly in love with Boone & in awe of Lily. It is said the key to entertainment is to always leave the audience wanting more. Rather it be more story, more detail...just more. And that's usually the case. But with this book I didn't want anymore. I don't think I could have handled anymore. But when it ended, I didn't feel like there was any more to be.

Wow...the tears

Thank you for writing this story with such care. I really love the characters and how real they are. This is such a a great series.

Beautiful and heart wrenching

Sawyer Bennett has written a caring love story. I loved Boone and Lily. The way the Titans support each other is wonderful. Jeremy York and Stella Hunter did a fantastic job of narrating. Kudos for getting through the last hour of the book.
