Legend (Arizona Vengeance, #3)

by Sawyer Bennett

USA TODAY BESTSELLER • The Arizona Vengeance is hockey’s hottest new team. But hockey’s hottest goalie is learning that even the best players sometimes need an assist.
 
Everything is clicking for the Vengeance. We may be new, but we’re well on our way to winning the championship, and I’m having the time of my life headlining the sports media as the hottest goalie—hell, player—ever. I for one am going to live up to my name . . . because I am Legend Bay.
 
Dragging my ass home from the gym, I’m blinded by some gaudy, glowing holiday lights. As usual, my hot-as-hell neighbor Pepper Nantais has gone way over the top. But just as I’m about to tell her off, something else catches my eye . . . Seems like Santa left me a present, and not one I was expecting.
 
As life takes an unexpected turn, I realize that there’s much more to Pepper than meets the eye. Sure, she’s gorgeous. And exasperating. And her taste in decorating may be a bit . . . unique.

But beneath her carefree demeanor is a fierce determination and a heart of gold. And before I know it I’ve fallen for her. Hard . . .
 
Pepper is exactly the woman I never knew I needed.

Legend is the hottest goalie in the league right now and he is loving all the media attention that goes along with it. Returning home from his daily workout at the arena he is blinded by Peppers Christmas decorations on her house and has about had enough and is ready to confront her, again, about her over the top and annoying ways until something on his doorstep catches his eye. When Legend finds a baby girl on his front porch he freaks out and runs over to Pepper's house to seek her help. When Pepper steps in full force to help Legend care for little Charlie he begins to see that her quirky behaviour is actually one of the things that he enjoys about her and starts to see Pepper in a new light.

Again, Sawyer Bennett does not disappoint in the hockey romance category. Legend and Pepper's enemy-to-lovers story was fun and exciting right from the beginning. Throw in a baby and a crazy ex-girlfriend and you have a fun and suspenseful novel. This book is highly recommended as are all of Sawyer Bennett's hockey romances as they never disappoint.

Legend is the third book in the Arizona Vengeance series by Sawyer Bennett which can be read as a standalone or as part of the Arizona Vengeance series and is written in Legend and Pepper’s point of view. I recommend this novel and give Legend 5 stars.

I missed my hockey boys so much, and what a great way to get back into the swing of things with the Vengeance.

Not only did we have a fabulous enemies-to-lovers romance, but we also had a surprise baby, and in the words of Gray Brannon (yes, she and Ryker made an appearance), it was a classic romance novel. Legend and Pepper had sparks and chemistry galore, but they also connected with each other on a deeper level and had a solid friendship before the relationship progressed further. Legend with his daughter melted my heart, but I had the same sort of feels, when he was doting on Pepper.

I will say, Bennett cranked up the drama in this one, and I rather enjoyed it. Legend and Pepper faced some precarious situations and the stakes were really high. I also liked the way Bennett was laying the groundwork for Tacker and Dax's books. These were some really emotionally charged moments filled with some amazing bromantic vibes and men being sensitive. Loved it!

As always, I enjoyed being back in this world. I shed happy and sad tears, and absolutely adored the ending. I cannot wait to dive into my next Arizona Vengeance book.

Legend is book 3 in the Arizona Vengeance series and the 2nd book that I've had the pleasure to read. This book definitely snuck up on me since I didn't even realize that it released this month...yeah, I'm horrible at remembering release dates. If you're not new to this series, you're probably like me and have been eager for this book. I've been waiting for these two neighbors love story!

Ahhhhh, I truly enjoyed this book so damn much! I'll be honest and say I was wee bit disappointed to see the enemies part of this enemies-to-lovers end so quickly, but we do get a heavy dose of it in the previous book. However, I love that the monumental thing that happens in Legend's life was what brought Pepper and him close together. I was all giddy when the first person that popped in his head at the moment that he really needed someone, was Pepper.

These two are the absolute best, not only together, but individually as well. Despite their personalities clashing, they are the perfect example of opposites attract. I loved all their moments together, their banter and just the sweet and supportive conversations between both of them.

Legend knows how to roll with changes like it's nothing. He adapted so quickly to his new life and came out better for it. And Pepper is such a free-spirited heroine with a heart of gold. Makes you wonder why Legend loathed her so much, she's freakin' awesome!

I really loved watching these two get closer together all while he gets a hang of his new role as a father. They tackled sooooo much together, even an ex that was a little bit off the rails, which adds the suspenseful part to their story.

You'll definitely get an insight into the stories that are to come, Dax and Tacker are the ones that I'll definitely be keeping my eye out for. Sooooo much love for this series, phenomenal writing as always! This one easily goes down as my #RSFave!

Legend was an awesome story, about a hockey player who thought he had all the time in the world to play and party. Only to learn that he had much bigger responsibilities than he first thought.
On top of that, it's an enemies to lovers story, and I loved it!
