About the Book

The line between love and hate isn’t always thin…
 
Professional hockey team owner Gage Caldwell has it all: Money, friends and a career some would kill for. But everything means nothing if you don’t have someone to share it with. The one thing missing is Laurel, the ex-wife he never stopped loving. Too bad she hates him.
 
Hockey coach Laurel Saunders will never forgive her ex-husband for not being there when she needed him most, but that doesn’t mean she stopped loving him. Desperate to let go of the past, she’s thrown herself into coaching women’s hockey and made a new life for herself. A life without Gage.
 
Sparks fly and history repeats itself, when they find themselves thrown together. This second chance might be their last, and Gage is determined to do whatever it takes to prove to Laurel this time will be different. Can he find a way to win her back or she always be the one who got away?
 
 

 

About the Author:

Kat Mizera is a South Florida native. Born in Miami Beach with a healthy dose of wanderlust, she’s called Los Angeles, Long Island, upstate New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Atlanta home. She’s never been able to pick which locale is her favorite, but if pressed, she’d probably choose the west coast.
 
Kat’s a typical PTA mom with a wonderful and supportive husband (Kevin) and two amazing boys (Nick and Max). When she’s not writing, she’s either scrapbooking or indulging in her second love (after writing) – traveling. Greece is one of her favorite places in the world. She loves that Athens is a big city with a small-town feel. The food, beaches and culture keep her going back as often as possible. She hopes to retire there one day so she can spend her days writing books on the beach.
 
Kat has been a working freelance writer for nearly 30 years. She sold her first article–a review of a rock concert–for $10 in 1985. Since then she’s been an entertainment journalist, waitress, bartender, legal assistant, food critic, magazine editor, substitute teacher, and sports writer. She also spent some time working at A & M Records in Los Angeles. As you can guess from her series, the Las Vegas Sidewinders, Kat loves hockey. She is also a freelance hockey writer, covering her favorite team, the Florida Panthers, and any other teams that have an interesting story. The rest of the time, she writes novels: sexy, romantic fiction that she hopes makes you as happy as it makes her. There’s something enticing about hockey players and romance…

This story is about Gage who owns a Hockey Team in Alaska. He is older, a billionaire and divorced, and former military. It is part of a series about the Hockey Team, the Alaskan Blizzards but it only features those characters from other books, so it easily stands alone.

Gage has been a favorite character throughout the series and he is in love with his ex wife. Lauren, is a former hockey player and coach for the Women's Olympic Team. Gage brings her to Alaska to help him out with his team. The why, is something I don't want to spoil as it is a big part of the storyline.
 
I want to say first that this book was absolutely awesome. I truly loved it. It kept me on the edge of my seat as I watched whether they would or wouldn't make the playoffs and what would happen with Gage and Lauren. Those two are soul mates and meant to be but at times Gage is an idiot because he makes the same errors as he made some 15 years before. Despite that I loved this story SO much. It is well written and extremely heart felt and I absolutely loved every second of this story.

Gage and Lauren were college sweethearts and have known each other for 15 years. They both love each other but Gage went into the military and it caused all kinds of issues for Lauren, as soon as he got out she asked for a divorce and though they are friendly and share friends they are no longer married.

Gage brings Lauren to Alaska and wants a 2nd chance with her. But he is still keeping secrets from her and she is keeping secrets from him, so they really need to learn to trust each other.

I LOVED Lauren. SO MUCH!! I loved Gage too at the start of this book. I would say he was a favorite character of mine before this story however he was a total idiot. Years later he is still making the same stupid mistakes and as the book progressed I felt he betrayed Lauren over and over again.

I really wanted her to punish him a lot more than she did. And I don't think I could have forgiven him. In the back drop of the story we get to see the Blizzards fight to become a cohesive team. I loved this book and Lauren's story but Gage was a gigantic jerk until he finally gets a clue.
