The bad boy of hockey has a few skeletons in his closet. And also a pair of old figure skates…
Zoe Carson, former figure skating queen, needs a fresh start as a hockey skating coach. An NHL gig with the New York Legends is her big chance. Unfortunately, that means facing off against the star player who broke her heart ten years ago.
Chase Merritt knows his game is off, and he’s on the verge of losing sponsors. But he doesn’t need the ice princess from that intense college summer showing up and telling him what he’s doing wrong—even when she’s right.
On the ice, they’re magic. Off the ice, they’re nothing but heat and stubbornness, and everyone on the team is enjoying the show. But when an old video of Zoe and Chase’s figure skating routine goes viral, they’re forced to work together more intimately than ever before. Can the two get it right this time or will the whole world watch them crash and burn?
Zoe Carson lives and breathes the old adage that "you never forget your first love." But things did not end well for Zoe and her first love. Years later, she's about to begin a new coaching job for the New York Legends hockey team where she will come face-to-face with Chase Merritt.
Chase also remembers Zoe, the Ice Princess as he called her, but his memories of their summer together are focused around a disastrous end to their relationship and the summer, for which he blames Zoe. There's quite a bit of tension here that will need to be resolved before they can even think about a second-chance.
There is one thing that brings them together and that's the ice. When the hockey organization finds out about Zoe and Chase skating together, they push them together for an encore. The story is told with flashbacks to their summer camp time together which are just lovely as they fall for each other.
I just loved Zoe. She so sweet and yet tough at the same time. But her heart clearly belongs to Chase and there's a sense of destiny around them that can't be denied. Chase is a bit surly, but there's a heart of gold underneath the tough shell he wears, especially around Zoe.
I devoured this book in a day. It left me with a smile on my face. If you are looking for a sports romance with a second chance at love theme, I would definitely recommend this and other works by this author.
