From USA Today best-selling author Ellie Wade comes a brother’s best friend and second-chance hockey romance.
Cade Richards is the starting forward of the NHL team the Cranes. He’s at the top of his game and scoring like a champ. On a quick trip home, he runs into Iris, the woman he’s spent his adult life striving to be good enough for, the one who holds his heart.
Iris Feldmore’s life is in shambles. Everything she’s worked for has crumbled. Her brother returns home with his best friend—her first love, Cade—in tow. The hockey team gave Cade the nickname of Heartbreaker, and it’s fitting because he broke hers. If she’s honest with herself, she’s never gotten over it.
Now Cade’s back and offering to help her in a way only he can. He’s always known what she needed, yet she’s terrified to let him in. She wouldn’t survive his loss again.
This time, though, something feels different. Their chemistry is off the charts, but she’s been fooled before. After all these years, could everything she’s wanted be in reach?
Or will opening her heart end in another devastating heartbreak?

My Review - 4 of 5 stars -
Iris and Cade had a history, but mistrust of feelings pulled them apart, broken hearted. Iris' life was torn apart again, and she found herself back in Cade's orbit. Their friendship and attraction were strong. The antics in the tropics were a bit chaotic and juvenile, and somewhat steamy. As they grew closer, I enjoyed the story more. Some of the hockey details were not quite questionable (the only "bye" week is the All-Star Break), but the actual games and playoff details were more realistic.
I received a copy through Enticing Journey Book Promotions, and this is my unsolicited review.
