Wynn family bonds bend but never break. . . . “Kelly Jamieson is an auto-buy for me.”—Carly Phillips JP Wynn: I admit, I’ve made some bad choices—on and off the ice. Now all I want to do is show my team I can control my emotions while I’m playing and redeem myself with my family, especially with my brother, Théo. I hate that I hurt him and I’m determined to stay out of trouble. But the hot bridesmaid at Théo’s wedding is tempting me into another bad decision. A little flirting and a hook up with Taylor seem harmless . . . until Manny Martinez jumps me on the dance floor and starts beating the crap out of me. And just like that I add one more bad decision to my résumé. Taylor Hart: I always thought hockey players were hot. Now I think they’re crazy. Manny broke my heart when he got traded to another team and left without even a goodbye. Then he showed up at my best friend’s wedding. All I wanted to do was show Manny that I was over him. And the groom’s sexy brother, JP, seemed more than willing to be my distraction. But after the way everything went down, I want nothing to do with any of them. Easier said than done. Especially when Lacey’s new brother-in-law is always around. . . . And I keep thinking about the wedding night, when we snuck away to his room for the best sex of my life.

I'm a sucker for hockey books. I don't know what it is, but I see that one of the leads plays hockey and I can't help but want to read it.
Now, I should admit, I haven't read the first book in this series, but even though I was a third of the way into this book I wasn't confused at all. There are a few scenes that reference to prior events I can only assume happened in book 1, but I didn't feel like I was missing anything.
Unfortunately, I just couldn't get into it. Perhaps the writing style just isn't for me because I didn't believe in the couple and wasn't caring about the couple. Their chemistry wasn't working for me– and I was a third of the way into the book. If I don't understand how a couple could be together or grow to like one another when I'm that far into a book, I generally know I'm not going to like it. Also, while JP is being painted as this bad person, really I liked him so much more than Taylor. His chapters felt more dynamic to me. Taylor felt more bland and judgey to me.
And yet, I did make it over a third of the way through, so that has to mean something. It isn't terrible. There are some good characters here and good scenes. I like how the author wrote about the sport. It is an easy book to read and something I wouldn't be adverse to telling someone to read while hanging out at the beach. It isn't a bad book, it just wasn't for me.
