Publisher's summary

Eden Christiansen never imagined her role as her younger brother Owen's cheerleader would keep her on the sidelines of her own life. Sure, it feels good to be needed, but looking after the reckless NHL rookie leaves little time for Eden to focus on her own career. She dreamed of making a name for herself as a reporter, but is stuck writing obits - and starting to fear that she doesn't have the chops to land a major story. If only someone would step up to mentor Owen...but she knows better than to expect help from team veteran and bad-boy enforcer Jace Jacobsen.

Jace has built his career on the infamous reputation of his aggressive behavior - on and off the ice. Now at a crossroads about his future in hockey, that reputation has him trapped. And the guilt-trip he's getting from Eden Christiansen isn't making things any easier. But when Owen's carelessness leads to a career-threatening injury and Eden stumbles upon a story that could be her big break, she and Jace are thrown together...and begin to wonder if they belong on the same team after all.

Emotionally spent….

But in a good way….. I’m a ‘happiness for all’
kind of girl … even though I know that’s not how real Faith and Trust take root.
The lessons of love 💕 and hope come shining through and with the tears are rainbows of beautiful color and promise‼️

I Love This Book!

Wow! I am reminded again why this is one of my favorite books ever. I think I read this book about once a year. This time I listened to the audio through Audible Escape and the narration was very well done. There were two instances where the narrator read the Bible reference strangely, saying "One John" instead of "First John" and that caught my attention, but it was a very small thing. She did a good job with voices and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this story.

Great story

I just love the Christiansen family and the way they gather together to support each other. I enjoyed the several poetic ways of weaving the title into the story. I’m excited for the next book!

Great Book!

A good clean original story with likable characters. I was engaged throughout the whole book. The narrator was easy to listen to and did a good job with each character.
