Synopsis

It’s time to drop the gloves and fight! Support the Fight against cancer that is.  This anthology of 8 brand new novellas is hot enough to melt the ice these players skate on.

Toni Aleo TANGLED IN THE LACES
 In Tangled in the Laces, Karson King is on the fast track to the pros and Lacey Martin is coming back from a hard fight against cancer and is terrified of him but their love is too much to ignore. Will Karson prove that he will protect her heart at all costs, or will he leave Lacey to pick up the pieces of her life once again?
I absolutely loved this story. Great storyline and wonderful writing. It was sweet and very touching. The fact that one character has had such exposure to this horrible disease makes is so much more touching. Can’t wait to know what happens next.

Cassandra Carr and Cindy Carr HOOKING HANNAH
 When Hannah attends an all-star game, she doesn't expect a hockey player of all people to turn her world upside down. Her sister is married to a player and Hannah never wanted that life. But Scott could change everything. For Scott's part, he has to know the woman who stirred his blood with just a look, and once he does, he realizes he wants Hannah to be his forever. Now to convince her...
I really enjoyed this story. It’s sexy and well written. This is my first exposure to the works of  Cassandra & Cindy Carr and I can’t wait to read more of their stories.

Jami Davenport CRASHING THE BOARDS (Seattle Sockeyes 1.5)
 Professional party crasher, Izzy Maxwell, needs the cooperation of reluctant party guest Cooper Black, the team captain of Seattle’s new hockey team, but Cooper can’t get past his anger over the team’s relocation to Seattle. Can Izzy melt Cooper’s frozen heart or will this party crash along with her fledgling business?

I enjoyed this story immensely. Cooper Black and Izzy Maxwell are such great characters. It’s a hot and steamy story. This is also the first story I’ve read by Jami Davenport and I will be going back for more.

Catherine Gayle TAKING A SHOT (Portland Storm 2.5)
 Katie Weber has had a crush on Jamie Babcock for almost two years, since he joined her father’s hockey team, the Portland Storm as an eighteen-year-old rookie. When cancer takes her health, her hair, and even her friends, she can’t bear to go to senior prom…until Jamie intervenes.


Wonderfully written and such a great story. This story like Tangled in Laces also finds one of the characters dealing with cancer and some of the issues that you have to face. Very moving.

Jaymee Jacobs A VALUABLE TRADE 
 Bryan's life gets turned upside down when he gets traded to the Dallas Comets, and things get even messier when he meets Georgiana, the Director of Team Services. He's got a lot of work to do to prove his worth to his new team, but Georgiana's sure he'll prove to be a valuable trade.

Hot! Absolutely, love this story. Very well written

V.L. Locey HEIR APPARENT
 Superstar Cam Evans is fighting to climb out of a slump that`s growing worse with each day of living in denial. Fresh from the minors, Jacobi Neal is hungry for this chance to play back-up for the legendary goalie. Can two men battle each other, their inner demons, and the sizzling attraction building between them?

Such a great story and very enjoyable. It’s a glimpse into the how someone copes with their sexual orientation when even in this day and age many believe homosexuality isn’t right or has to be hidden. Wonderful story.

Bianca Sommerland BLIND PASS (The Dartmouth Cobras 0.5)
 Nothing could stop Tim Rowe, the assistant coach of the Dartmouth Cobras, from falling in love with Madeline, but love alone can’t satisfy every need. Sometimes, to reach the goal, you have to take the chance with a . . . Blind Pass.
Two great characters. Really great story
 
Nikki Worrell - CAPTAIN, MY CAPTAIN (Prequel to Scorpions Series)
 Keith Lambert is the captain of the Flyers—until he’s not. To everyone’s shock, he’s traded to the San Diego Scorpions. As if that’s not bad enough, Phoebe, his girlfriend of two years, decides she doesn’t love him enough to follow.

All alone in a new town, Keith is drawn to Kelly, his take out delivery girl. When she shows up at ice girl tryouts, he’s lost. She’s all he can see. Can he convince her to forget her past and take a chance on him or is he destined to be alone in a new town a little bit longer?
Love this story. Will they both find happiness? Read and find out. Can’t wait to read more great books by Nikki Worrell

I can't say enough good things about this anthology. Great authors, awesome stories for such a good cause. I urge everyone to buy this anthology for some really great reading and to support a very worthwhile cause.
