Blaine Rice is a star winger on the Minnesota Caribou hockey team and Cora LaCoste is a 2nd grade teacher and his very best friend. They have never even kissed but they both love each other but also are afraid to go after a romantic relationship. Until one Halloween night under the stars and after that nothing is the same.
This was a well written story and it easily stands alone. I am a new reader to this author and this series and I never felt lost or that I missed anything by not reading the other stories in this series.
Blaine and Cora are both 25 and are very unrequited. To some degree I found them both on the immature side. They had to really grow up and face who they are and what they want in life and they have to risk something that could be really awesome. For being such great friends they really don't communicate with other well at all. At times I wanted to pinch each one and tell them to wake up and figure it out before they lost other.
I really loved Cora. To some degree I felt she was really the brave one in this relationship and I actually wanted her to dump Blaine and find a new guy and make him a little jealous because he did take her for granted a lot.
The grandmas in this story was a hoot and I really enjoyed them. This is a bestie finds love romance with a side of unrequited love in a sports romance.
