4.5 - Thank you so much to Hambright PR for the ALC & ebook of this book!

This book is out now! 

I have heard the name Pippa Grant among the Bookstagram romance readers but never had the opportunity to read her - until now. And if you been following the romances I have been reading this year, you know that sport romances have been a new fave of mine so when I saw this had not only a hockey player but also a baseball coach. Yes please. 

From the very start we learn that our MMC Duncan is still SO smitten with his former fling Addie after an awkward encounter in a dressing room. I am not a super big fan of slow burns but this one didn't bother me because of the flirting and banter was so strong leading up to the moment.  Addie was just so resistant into starting things back up with him but she knew that she still had such deep feelings for him. 

I loved seeing them navigate how this time around would be different than the last and more importantly Duncan just being totally head over heels in love with Addie. Addie just wanted to be taken seriously as a coach which is totally understandable and dating a player (even if it was in another field) could potentially have been risky. 

I paired my reading with the audio and I thought both Virginia Rose and Tim Paige were pretty good with narrators.

This is part of a series and I did not feel like I was lost at all. There were mention of past characters which I am going to assume were past books.  It was just a fun time and I really enjoyed it!! 

If you are looking for a baseball/hockey romance, dual POV, second chance romance - give this one a whirl!
