BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Carolina Preston has only one goal in mind—launching her new fashion line. She needs only one last thing to make it perfect—hockey phenom Drew Hogan. But Carolina and Drew have a history that goes back to their college days, and Carolina doesn’t want the embarrassment of her past to cloud the brightness of her future.
Drew is eager for the chance to show Carolina he isn’t the boy who hurt her back then, but a man now, with the skills necessary to melt the icy exterior of her cold heart.
REVIEW:
But I will say that in the prior books and chapter one I really didn’t like Drew. I hated him for how he treated Carolina all those years ago. I really hated how he keep bring it up like it was no big deal. But I will say that as the story went on and on I found myself falling for Drew. He is such a sweet guy who realized that what a mistake he made all those years ago. A mistake that was made for all the right reasons. Drew was not the man that Carolina need back then, even if he really wanted to be. But this second time around he is the right man and it is the right time. Convincing Carolina about that might be another story, but Drew is up for the battle.
Carolina is not the same shy girl with a horrible crush on the boy of her dreams. Oh no, Carolina is now a woman who is determined, stubborn and still has a horrible crush on the man of her dreams. It just happens that the man is the same boy she loved so many years ago. But can Carolina finally forgive Drew for the hurt he caused her in college? And can she finally let the walls around her heart to fall and take a chance on Drew?
I just love Jaci’s Play by Play series!!! I am a huge sports fan and so love reading about these hot guys and the women that push them into learning to love. I loved this story and so glad that Drew & Carolina both finally realized what they mean to each other. I am so looking forward to the next story in this series.
