Synopsis:

The steamy Chicago Rebels series returns with this racy and sassy tale of embittered hearts, second chances, and going for the goal—on and off the ice.

Violet Vasquez never met her biological father, so learning he left his beloved hockey franchise—the Chicago Rebels—to her is, well, unexpected. Flat broke and close to homeless, Violet is determined to make the most of this sudden opportunity. Except dear old dad set conditions that require she takes part in actually running the team with the half-sisters she barely knows. Working with these two strangers and overseeing a band of hockey-playing lugs is not on her agenda…until she lays eyes on the Rebels captain and knows she has to have him.

Bren St. James has been labeled a lot of things: the Puck Prince, Lord of the Ice, Hell’s Highlander…but it’s the latest tag that’s making headlines: washed-up alcoholic has-been. This season, getting his life back on track and winning the Cup are his only goals. With no time for relationships—except the fractured ones he needs to rebuild with his beautiful daughters—he’s finding it increasingly hard to ignore sexy, all-up-in-his-beard Violet Vasquez. And when he finds himself in need of a nanny just as the playoffs are starting, he’s faced with a temptation he could so easily get hooked on.

For two lost souls, there’s more on the line than just making the best of a bad situation… there might also be a shot at the biggest prize of all: love.

Review:

This was a tough read. It took me a while to get into the right head space to read about Violet and Bren. Even then, I couldn’t let myself get too immersed in the book. The experiences Violet went through hit just a little too close to home. However, that doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy the book. Violet is a free spirit, which was enjoyable after reading her more serious sisters’ books. Bren is a recovering alcoholic who is trying to put his family back together and find a nanny for his two daughters. Violet, despite being a surprise heir of Bren’s hockey team, ends up becoming his nanny. I really enjoyed the interactions between Violet and his daughters.  Also, the build-up to Violet and Bren’s relationship spans the earlier books and Lord knows I love a slow, multi-book burn for secondary characters. It’s always so satisfying when they finally get their own book and give in to that burn.  While I think Harper and Remy’s book was my favorite of the series, this was an excellent conclusion. And I loved the cameo appearances of some of Kate Meader’s characters from other series!
