Kelly definitely knows how to write a solid hockey romance and I simply can't get enough of them. In It to Win It is book 2 in the Wynn Hockey series. I've been pretty eager for this story since I finished Play to Win. If you read it, then you know that JP didn't give the best impression to the readers. And to be honest, I wasn't sure if Kelly was going to be able to swing it so I'd fall in love with the guy. And I gotta say is that he surprised me so much and it may not have been head over heels, but I had so much adoration for his character.

We get a completely different side of JP and there's a bit of vulnerability and he's constantly punishing himself for the mistakes he has made in the past. I truly loved getting to know JP a bit more and seeing this other side to him. He truly is working towards becoming a better person and making up for his mistakes.

Being part of the Wynn family was NOT easy. JP was labeled the "bad boy" of the clan due to his past romantic entanglements and scrapes out on the ice. He was determined to "be better", however, would he ever be good enough for a woman like Taylor?

This was all about JP for me. Yes, he was guilty of every crime he was accused of, but he was never given the opportunity to present his side of the story. He just accepted the admonishment from his family, and let them believe he was this impulsive hot head. But, not Taylor. Taylor couldn't reconcile these past actions with the man she saw before her. She had her suspicions, that there was more to the story, and as suspected, there was. I was so happy there was FINALLY someone, who could see past the public persona, and really took the time to get to know JP.

I won't say Taylor was perfect. She frustrated me a lot in the beginning of the book. I thought her reaction to what happened at the wedding was a bit extreme, but I guess it was the kick in the pants JP needed to get him to make some changes to this life. I appreciated seeing both JP and Taylor grapple with some personal issues, and grow from them. Both really had hang ups, when it came to relationships, and that was an obvious hurtle for them, but JP also had to learn to forgive and trust himself, and not let the pressure of the Wynn legacy keep him from living his life his way.

In book one, we just got a taste of the Wynn family. Here, we are getting to know more about them and their dynamic, bit by bit, and I am really enjoying learning more about their family. I also got to spend more time with JP and his team, and they shared quite a wonderful bro-moment in Nashville as they helped him worked through one of his blow-ups.

Overall: I had a fantastic time with JP and Taylor as they worked towards their HEA. It was fun, sexy, sweet, and I always am on board for a good redemption story.
