This is a brother's best friend, forbidden romance. It stars Graham who is a 36-year-old hockey player. He also grew up with Savannahs brother but hasn't seen her in years. They end up meeting when he helps out at her job.
She is 10 years younger and is a school teacher. Her brother is very anti them getting together. But it's not a central point in this story. Its more about opposites finding each other with lots of hot and sexy time.
It was a good story but there is not much drama. Its more about two people discovering each other. There are a lot of sex scenes. I love sex scenes in books but I thought there was bit too many. I wish they'd had more dates like a normal couple. But aside from that I loved seeing this couple find love with each other.
Bax Mayson thought he had escaped the family curse—until he saw Olivia Gannon again.
It’s been eight years since he last laid eyes on his best friend’s little sister, and now, fate has thrown her back into his life. As if their undeniable connection isn’t complicated enough, a mysterious threat looms, determined to tear Olivia away from him.
For Olivia, moving back home wasn’t supposed to change everything—until it did. Running into Bax was the last thing she expected, but that one encounter sets off a whirlwind of events she couldn’t have imagined. Now, with family tensions rising, exes resurfacing, and a hidden enemy out for revenge, Olivia must figure out who—or what—they’re fighting. Because one thing is certain: she and Bax have something worth fighting for.

This is Bax and Olivia's road to romance. They meet when she comes back to town. Her brother is Bax's best friend, and also his employee. He falls pretty fast for her when they become neighbors. But her brother is a big issue, but she also has a stalker.
The romance and attraction between Bax and Olivia are awesome. I love how hard he falls and watching him TRY and protect her from someone who is after her. The suspense is a big part of this story and as I read it, I had a few suspects.
I have waited a long time for this story, and it was worth the wait. I could not put the book down and I really loved Bax and Olivia's road to their HEA.
He’s not looking for love, and she isn’t looking for him… but when opposites attract, the rules of the game change.
Anders
As a pro hockey player for the Lauderdale Knights, my life is great—friends, hockey, and casual flings are all I need. Love isn’t even on my radar. But I’ll admit, dating my teammate’s hot sister sounds like a fun distraction.
Until I see her shy, nerdy friend sitting alone at the team party. Claudia’s nothing like the women I usually go for. She’s awkward, brilliant, and inexperienced, and I still find myself wanting more.
The problem? She’s headed back to Philadelphia, and I’m stuck here in Lauderdale.
Claudia
One bad experience left me done with men. I’ve got a great job, supportive family, and friends who mean the world to me. The last thing I need is a smooth-talking playboy hockey hunk trying to worm his way into my heart— and pants.
But then I meet Anders, my best friend’s brother’s teammate, the swoon-worthy Swedish player who’s breaking through my walls.
What started as one week together turns into something I never expected. But I can’t trap him like his ex did. I love him too much.
So I’ll let him go… even if it breaks my heart.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
USA Today Bestselling and award-winning 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.
A typical PTA mom with a wonderful and supportive husband (Kevin) and two amazing boys (Nick and Max), Kat can usually be found 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.
Kat's 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 Las Vegas Sidewinders series, Kat loves hockey and occasionally writes articles about her favorite team, the Florida Panthers. 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 is Anders and Claudia's story. Both are fairly new characters to the series. He is a very sexy and hot Swedish hockey player, and she is a friend of the sister (Hana) of a hockey player, Johan, that we met in a previous book. In this story we get to know both women, because they are besties and are hanging out a lot. They share a friend group with Johan and Anders.
This story is a bit of insta-lust love and a bit of a vacation fling and long distance type of relationship. It's also a bit slower than I like. Not in relation to sex but more in relation to the relationship forming as it's a vacation fling and Claudia is planning on living in a different city.
I don't want to give away too much of the plot, but this is very much opposites attract and from fling to forever I guess you could say with a bit of a long-distance relationship.
The annoyingly handsome hockey captain glaring at me needs my help.
He won’t admit that, of course. But with his teammate’s gone for the summer and him fresh off a season-ending injury, someone has to keep him in check and it’s not the nurses he keeps running off.
I’m having one last summer of fun before I move away to start my first grown-up job, and I seem to be the only woman on the planet immune to his charm. Sure, I’ve noticed his chiseled jaw and sculpted muscles (Did I mention he’s annoyingly handsome?), but I have too much self-preservation to fall for a grumpy hockey star who can have any woman he wants and doesn’t do serious relationships.
Except once he lets me help him, I see past his broody exterior and jerk comments and I realize something terrible. I want him.
Now I just need to convince him to throw out all his rules for a fling with his teammate’s little sister.

This is such an awesome story. I totally loved it. Its finally here, Evelyn and Jack's story. They have appeared throughout this series and I love that the author put them together.
In this book Jack is injured and Evelyn ends up looking out for him while his teammates are enjoying their summer down time. They become friends and then maybe more but....Evelyn's just graduated college and Jack doesn't want to get in the way of that.
Its hard to not give any spoilers away. I just love Jack and Evelyn together. It is an awesome story and I love that we catch glimpses of the other players. The way the author finished this series is awesome.
Over the years, Joshua has watched most of his family fall in love. He and his cousin Nate are the last single Shaws standing, and while Nate's seemingly content to stay that way, Josh wants the kind of love his sister, parents, and grandparents have found. In the meantime, he's alone. And lonely. Particularly since, until that special someone comes along, Josh believes certain...ahem...intimacies are worth waiting for. Sophia Montgomery is still reeling from the unexpected passing of her beloved father when, in her grief, she texts his old phone number--and gets a reply. The person on the other end, Josh Shaw, is sympathetic, funny, and kind...everything Sophia needs right now. And when her grieving mother suddenly focuses on Sophia's dating life, it's not long before Josh goes from text friend to fake boyfriend to get her mom off her back. But the first time Josh and Sophia meet in person? Well...there's nothing fake about their instant attraction. Giddy with newfound feelings, the young couple isn't prepared for the bombs about to go off in their lives--including revelations about Sophia's father and a Shaw family tragedy that rocks Josh's entire world. No one ever said life would be perfect. But if Josh and Sophia rely on each other to get through their biggest challenges so far as a couple, their love could prove more than perfect enough.

This is Josh's story and he is Kaylee and Ty's son. He is a firefighter and helps out of the families ranch and is a HUGE romantic. One day he loses his cell phone and its how he ends up meeting Sophia.
They become texting friends and he helps her deal with the death of her father and how crazy her mom has gotten in relation to organizing her life. Meanwhile Josh gets a secret friend. And when they discover they don't live that far apart well thats when things get really interesting.
This is a story thats very romantic but also deals with some painful moments. Sophia has lost a parent in a very painful way and a very sad event is coming for the Shaw family. Will Josh let Sophia help him?
This was a great story and I love how we get to see all the Shaw's in this story. It does have some sad moments but also some really awesome ones. Josh is the romantic in this story and I love how Sophia really saw that and respected that in Josh.
