Juicy Rebound

IceCats, Book 1

De: Toni Aleo

Narrado por: Stephen Dexter, Tanya Eby

Chandler Moon's career as a defenseman for the IceCats is on fire. However, his marriage has gone up in flames...literally. He's resigned himself to the single life and being the best dog dad he can be, but he still holds out hope that one day he'll find "The One". So, imagine his surprise when he runs into "The One Who Got Away": Amelia Justice. His best friend's baby sister, a.k.a. "The One Who Is Totally Off-Limits".

Amelia is broken. The punches that life, and her ex-husband, have thrown at her have her down for the count. She's cut herself off from her family and friends as she works to rebuild her self-esteem and her spirit. Hidden away in a small town, she never expects to reconnect with "The One She Should Have Chosen".

Chandler is so much more than he was in college: more handsome, more muscular, more tattooed.... It was supposed to be a casual fling while Amelia and Chandler worked to put the pieces of their lives back together.

But as every good hockey player knows, a rebound can turn into one hell of a goal.

Chandler and Amelia <3

I really enjoyed this book! Chandler was the best for Amelia and what she needed after her divorce. I always enjoy Toni Aleo’s books and this one did not disappoint! I will say though the FMC narrator was hard to get in to, but I eventually got over it.

Story line

This was a good story. The story line of an abused woman who found love is very encouraging.

Good Start

This was a good start to the spin off series and a nice revisit to some familiar characters. narration was done well.

Beware if you are an Adoptee

This is a cute story its fun and flirty until you find out the LMC is adopted and its not handled with any sort of care, authenticity, or truth. From name changes to adopted dad “Knocking up Birthmom” as a joke because he looks like a-dad, to calling birthmom
A crack head, and lucky adoptee trope abounds. Its clear this author didn't do any research about adoption truama from an adoptee’s perspective. It just feels like it was unnecessary and handeled with absolutely no care or awareness.

Love this story!

I love the male narrator but the female was a bit whiny. I got used to it and loved the story of Amelia and Cameron.
