BLURB

 
He’s cool as ice and hot AF. Jake Mozik has fought his way back from a possible career-ending injury and has returned to the Redtails focused and ready to reclaim his former glory as half of the best defensive duo in the league.
 
But his attraction to the fierce Faith is unexpected and distracting. Faith doesn’t usually fall for overly confident, uber sexy jocks. But when she does, apparently she falls pretty damn hard. Jake is so not her type. Or so she thinks. Until he shows up to volunteer at the alternative school where she works and she sees a different side of the normally cocky athlete. He’s kind and patient and— Damn it, she is not falling for this guy.
 
She’s rebuilding her life after a near-fatal accident and there’s no room for a man. Jake is determined to make room in Faith’s life. And once he sets his mind on something, he doesn’t let go until he gets what he wants. And he wants it all…

This is book 7 in the series and I am a newbie to this author and series and I really loved the story. This is the story about Jake and Faith. Both are very strong characters and have persevered and they really like and respect each other.

Faith was injured in a car accident and fiancรฉe dumped her because of her injury. She was told she could never walk again but she has worked very hard to make that happen. She even lost her job and now she has a new job working at a school for special needs kids.

Jake meets Faith in Physical Therapy, they share friends in common but never really got to know each other. He is in therapy for a hockey injury and he gets all better and after that he finds that he wants to get to know Faith.

And this is them getting to know each other while sharing friends and falling love and trying to make it work. The big issue in this story is that Jake is on a minor hockey team, he expects to get called to the majors and Faith is very much a homebody, she fears what happens when he gets called up if she falls for him.

I loved the writing and I loved these two characters so much. This is a story with a lot of love and heart and I hope to read the other books in the series.
