Slick's review posted at Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews 
 For me there is something really special about a romance with both the hero and heroine are willing to give up something the love to be together. Seriously, how can that not be a great romance when people are willing to sacrifice something that means so much to them to be with the one they love? I absolutely LOVED this book and both the main characters, the story was strong, their conflict was real and their resolution while maybe a bit too much like a fairy tale made me extremely happy. Ryker proves to be every bit as great as the rest of the books in this series, while making a statement about women in sports. I applaud Sawyer Bennett for bringing this to light and for the solution that made it possible. 
 In the last book of this series we were introduced to Ryker Evans when he was acquired by the Cold Fury and moved to the area with his two young daughters in tow following a pretty big break-up with his soon to be ex-wife who hooked up with a 19 year old teammate of his. It wasn't pretty and when the Fury lost the Stanley Cup because he allowed in a goal. Ryker is settling into a routine and making friends with many of his teammates and while his life isn't perfect, he's happy with where he's at. When Gray Brannon the woman who scouted him for the Fury becomes the general manager of the team, he not only supports her he begins to realize what an absolutely special woman she is and yes, he really begins to appreciate that she is all woman. 
 Taking over as general manager for the Cold Fury Gray Brannon knows she has a lot to prove and that she will always be regarded as less than because she is female. While she expects some issues with the men on her team she also finds she has quite the ally in Ryker Evans the goalie she recruited last year. Meeting with him to discuss her plans for the team and for his career she also finds that he is intelligent, well spoken and makes her hormones stand up and do a happy dance, but she knows this is dangerous territory and knows she can never act on her attraction. 
 There was so much I appreciated about this book; the fact that Ryker was not intimidated by the brilliant Gray and he in fact relished in her brilliance, that Gray was a woman in a position of authority and was not only strong but believed in her methods 100 percent and she didn't back down, and that these two despite knowing a relationship could hurt both their careers simply couldn't deny their attraction that was more than physical for them both. 
 Complications abound in this relationship; their jobs at jeopardy, two small children, a soon to be ex-wife reappears, friends concerned for them, as well as the ethical and moral questions that arise. Both Ryker and Gray do a lot of soul searching and while at times they have a few moments of doubt for the most part they know exactly what they want and how they plan to get it and they find a very unlikely supporter in Gray's father the owner and CEO of the Fury. 
 I really enjoy books where the drama doesn't come from the two main characters where it is the action of others that makes the hero and heroine realize how much they mean to one another and instead of fighting with each other they choose to cling to one another. Ryker is an excellent example of two people realizing what they have is special and doing whatever it takes to be together and it is one of my favorite in this series to date!
