A second chance may be just what James Steele needs…
I might be one of the older players on the Arizona Vengeance, but I like to think that also makes me one of the wisest. Or at least I used to.
Turns out, I’ve been a bit selfish. I’ve been married to hockey and my team for years, which hasn’t left much time for my actual wife, Ella. Now I’m juggling a separation I never wanted, the pressure of being a single dad to our teenage daughter, and the career I sacrificed it all for.
While my game on the ice might be on fire, the game in my personal life is clearly lacking, as evidenced by the fact I just saw my wife on a date with another man. If I have any hope of saving the family I love, I need to re-prioritize, and fast. So it’s time for me to get back to fundamentals, just like I did when I learned how to play hockey. I’ve never backed down from a challenge, and romancing my wife is a challenge I am very much looking forward to.
Time to put on my game face, because I’m in it to win it.
ARC REVIEW ➞
I loved Steele’s story! I loved that this was different from your typical romance. The couple are already married and still in love with each other, but going through a separation.
Steele is determined to get his wife, Ella, back, especially after seeing her out on a date with another man. A fire was lit inside of him and he is more determined than ever to get his wife back and prove to her that he is a changed man.
I love Steele and Ella. They have amazing chemistry. They have been separated for six months but there is still so much love between them. However, throughout the course of their marriage, Steele became too comfortable, he focused more on his career and his family seemed more like a second thought. Ella realized this and she wasn’t going to feel invisible anymore. Steele pulled out all the stops when it came to proving to Ella that she and their daughter, Lucy, were his number one priority and that he was always thinking of them. The things he did had me swoony and they were so sweet and romantic.
I loved this addition to the Arizona Vengeance series. I loved seeing Steele with all the guys and Ella easily connect with all the other wives.
If you love hockey romances that is a little different this one is MUST READ!
