Who knew that when you combine a sexy hockey player from my favorite Brooklyn Bruisers with a sassy bartender from Vermont you'd get a story so sweet and romantic that you'd sigh and smile throughout?!? Truthfully, I guess I did. After all, Sarina Bowen has a way with romance. Every one of her stories has left my heart feeling full. So, I can add this book to my pile of books by this author that I absolutely loved. 
 Zara and Dave's story was meant to be fleeting. When he's in town on the off-season, they are immediately attracted to one another and end up spending a lot of time together. When the hockey season begins, Dave heads back to Brooklyn unaware that he's left something behind...a pregnant Zara. When they finally reconnect a couple of years later it's obvious that neither is over the feelings they felt for each other but, at this point, there's more to consider than just hooking up once more. She is managing single-parenthood, and a new business, with dedication and grace. And Dave is shocked to find out about both. I really enjoyed watching these two reconnect because their chemistry is smoking hot. But, what made my heart melt was watching Dave become a father. His inexperience, and insecurity, was at times funny...but mostly, it was heartwarming. It truly was sweet and had me glued to the pages as I shared his wonder, fear, and happiness. Add to that his naughty mouth and slight alpha tendencies and I was a happy girl. 
 If you're looking for a second-chance story with heart, one that will make you happy and that's filled with romance, this may just be the book for you. And, if you don't know Sarina Bowen, then hurry...go get this book, or one of her others! I know you'll love her words as much as I do!
