Alex is easy to like, he’s a fun, carefree guy and also works hard to be a great hockey player. He’s nearing the end of his career and is finally maturing and for the first time in his life, he’s forced to make some tough decisions. He’s surprised by his strong feelings for Claire. He understands Claire needs time and patience and he gives it to her. Claire is a nice person, but unfortunately she was married to a jerk and she’s still trying to figure out her life after the divorce. I especially enjoyed the camaraderie Alex has with his teammates. They are always trash talking and playing pranks on each other and everyone has a nickname. Kate Willoughby writes a fast paced story that held my interest from the first page. Alex and Claire immediately click and there is a lot of passion between them. I connected with the characters and was sorry when the story ended.
