Ford was a character that I liked in the first two books, but I wasnβt sure how I felt about him as a leading man. The duo behind Piper Rayne did an excellent job of peeling back the layers so that we could see the man behind the playboy persona and understand some of his previous motivations a little better.
Lena is someone that I had respect for from the beginning and I just liked her more as I got to know her. She was a great balance to Ford and they played off each other well.
I also appreciated how Ford and Lenaβs story stood well on its own while being a great part of the Hockey Hotties series. We see our main characters evolve emotionally and touch on key issues to both of them. To do this they get help from friends and family, but the secondary cast doesnβt over power things. With the glimpse we saw of what might be coming next for the Florida Fury, I am very curious!
Β
Fake.
Β
Being the heir to Jacobs Enterprises, Iβve been around fake people my entire life. I promised myself a long time ago that I wouldnβt change for anyone. Which is the only reason Iβm a professional hockey player who lives on the beach and does as he pleases without answering to anyoneβexcept my father.
Β
And now, my daughter.
Β
Being a single dad wasnβt in the plan but after a one-night stand who took off after the baby was born, this is my reality.
Β
My dadβs been harping on me to quit hockey and join the company for years and now that Iβm a father, heβs only intensified his efforts. Until he makes me a deal I canβt refuse.
Β
Insert Lena Boyd, the Jacobsβ family PR rep. Sheβs beautiful and intelligent and not at all the woman for meβask anyone.Β
Β
My dad needs us to act happily engaged and sell the idea that weβre in love. If weβre successful I wonβt have to join the family legacyβever. Of course, I agree.
Β
Thatβs when things get complicated. I thought I had her all figured out until I found out there was more underneath her judgmental sneers and eye rolls. It feels like everything is coming together for the future I really wantβwith Lenaβuntil my past ruins everything.
