Synopsis: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.

My Thoughts:
Legend Bay has a tiny package that he’s stunned by. His story humanizes the hockey player. Our author shows how they go through the same
trials and tribulations just like everyone else. Pepper Nantais likes to stay true to
herself. She shows how sometimes you can
count on a neighbor being there to lend a helping hand.
I watch some of the shows on HGTV and it’s interesting to see how
many people want no neighbors. What
happens when an emergency or the unexpected happens? Having an extra pair of hands can come in
handy and can also help to take some of the pressure off your shoulders. Having someone close by, no matter how
quirky, can be a good thing.
This story quickly became very addictive. Give me a sexy hunk, a woman who dances to
her own tune, and a little sweetie and I’m glued to my comfortable chair. I’d say to set the mood by going to a hockey
game but in this case, I say stay at home because you won’t want to be
distracted for even one second. You’ll
not realize how quickly this story moves along and that just shows how deeply
you’ve gotten sucked into what’s going on.
I didn’t even mind the twist that almost stopped me in my
tracks. But Legend and Pepper make a
great team so I know everything will be all right. Our author has created a situation that could
really tear at your heart. But instead
of bringing her readers down, she turns it around and will get you to
chuckle. At one point, you may even need
a tissue – which just shows how realistic this story seems.
We meet a couple of Legend’s teammates that seem to have
reoccurring appearances. Both of them
had me questioning which of their stories will be next. Tacker spoke the loudest to me. He seems to be crying out for help. But he doesn’t take my attention away from
what’s really going on with our main characters or from the very romantic
ending. Now I just have to wait to see
if I’m right or will our author just surprise me once again.
