Sweetly Unusual Hockey Romance
This hockey romance is a little different from usual. Hockey is an aggressive, fast paced and violent sport and this story was none of those things. This story was slow, sweet and tender.
Liam is a Swedish hockey player who lost his wife 18 months ago to a drink driver. He lost his scoring ability when she died and was traded to the Portland Storm, where they wanted him for his age and experience as much as his old scoring ability.
Noelle is a young, sweet and empathic woman, who’s parent died when she was 19 leaving her to drop out of college and care of her teenage brothers. Due to losing her job and not wanting her brothers to drop out of college, she lost their house and was living in a car. When her car broke down at the side of the road, Liam spotted her and took her away whilst they waiting for the radiator to cool down. Then her car was totalled.
This story was about two people who have had horrible things happen and how they differed in the ways in which they handled them. It was about learning to communicate pain and fear as well as love and compassion.
I got sucked into the story, enjoying the characters a lot and desperate to see what would happen next. I enjoyed it a lot.
