Book Review: Arden (Breakaway Hockey #2) by S.R. Grey

 

Blurb

Confirmed bachelor Arden Troy has no time for love. He’s too busy playing his best hockey for the Atlanta Thunder.

Well, almost his best. He did just blow a perfect chance for his team to move on in the playoffs.

But that’s behind him now. It’s summer, and his teammate Hayden, just asked him for a favor—to spend some time with Hayden’s fiancée’s sister, Willow, who just moved into town.

Whatever, it could be worse. At least it’ll make the off-season more bearable.

Still, Arden plans to keep things platonic, no matter what.

That shouldn’t be hard, as Willow Knight is done with love. She was burned recently and has now vowed never to let that happen again.

Nope, no way.

Even if she does think Arden is hot.

Even if he is the perfect blend of swagger and cool.

Yeah, even if.

But can two people really fight fate?

Especially when everything they ever wanted is right in front of them.

Arden is the second novel in the bestselling Breakaway Hockey series.

My Review - 4 of 5 stars - 

Friendship before more. Both Willow and Arden had been hurt before, making them wary of relationships. They enjoyed each other's company, had lots in common, and then feelings began to creep in. Hoping not to hurt their friendship, they step out of their comfort zones to move forward. A couple hiccups almost brought them down, but I loved the strength and trust they showed in their love. The supporting characters were wonderful as well, and I look forward to the next in the series.

I received a copy of this story through Enticing Journey Book Promotions, and this is my unsolicited review.
