Nico Merryweather loves women—all women. Sure, they’re sexy and fun. But “Player” is an easy reputation to hide behind, a way to keep the good times rolling and reality at bay. He’s loud, he’s cocky, he says exactly what he’s thinking, and people just laugh it off because they think they know him. But Nico makes sure no one is close enough to know the truth. With a new season starting, he is ready to play the game he can control.
 
They’ll all be watching Nico, the goalie, but they’ll never know the man behind the mask who is just trying to breathe. He hasn’t ever wanted anyone close enough to him to see the truth, until Aviva rams herself into his ass. Literally. Aviva Pearce’s life is a collection of bad days all wrapped up without a bow. If it can go wrong, it will. All she wants is to run her business, take care of her sister, and keep her head above water.
 
But with a father who is out to ruin her like he has himself and debt trying to drown her, it’s hard to stay afloat. Aviva isn’t the type to waste time dwelling on her misfortunes or to give up, though. She’s got too much fight in her. And she definitely doesn’t have time to waste on the wildly sexy, rich, showboating goaltender everyone wants. She’s got goals. What she doesn’t know is that Nico has goals of his own. And she’s number one on his list.

My name is Toni Aleo and I’m a total dork.
 
I am a wife, mother of two and a bulldog, and also a hopeless romantic.
 
I am the biggest Shea Weber fan ever, and can be found during hockey season with my nose pressed against the Bridgestone Arena’s glass, watching my Nashville Predators play!
 
When my nose isn’t pressed against the glass, I enjoy going to my husband and son’s hockey games, my daughter’s dance competition, hanging with my best friends, taking pictures, scrapbooking, and reading the latest romance novel.
 
I have a slight Disney and Harry Potter obsession, I love things that sparkle, I love the color pink, I might have been a Disney Princess in a past life… probably Belle.
 
… and did I mention I love hockey?

This is book 2 in the Ice Cats Series and it is supposed to stand alone. But I had not read book 1 and I was feeling slightly lost as I read it. Thats when I decided to download and buy the first book (Juicy Rebound) and I am really happy I did.

I had read Shelli's book already (Dump and Chase), she is mentioned in the all the Ice Cats books. Juicy Rebound introduces Nico and also is the romance between Amelia and Chandler. They  are BIG parts of Wild Tendy/Nico's story and so I highly recommend you read Juicy Rebound first.

Wild Tendy is a wonderful and amazing story. The writing is phenomenal and the character building is wonderful. It is not a light romance, it is very different and deep and really emotional. Nico is a very complicated guy and he is NOT a man whore. You will read the first chapter and it looks like he is but really he is not.

He meets Aviva when she runs into him literally. And he can't get her out of his head. Aviva is an amazing character and I loved her and her sister. To some degree her sister stole this book from her because she is absolutely the best character in this book. Aviva has had a rough life but she is also very proud and wants to make it on he own but life keeps getting in her way. I loved how she is with Nico and her sister.

There are some major/deep issues in this book. One is breast cancer and I feel I need to say that, so if that is a sensitive subject for you as a reader you should be warned. No one is sick in this book but Aviva's mother had breast cancer and its a very big part of this story. This story really explores that in a way I have never seen any other romance do.

Nico also has some issues he deals with everyday that make him very vulnerable and it really enhanced this story watching how he deals with his issues. He and Aviva are totally perfect for each other and I oved how real they are with each other.

This was a wonderful story and I can see it winning all kinds of awards because while a romance it also is very deep and poignant.
