REVIEW: Play to Win by Kelly Jamieson

JennieB Reviews / B Reviews CategoryContemporary / ice hockey / marriage-of-convenience / Series8 Comments

REVIEW: Icebreaker by Deirdre Martin

JanetB- ReviewsContemporary / ice hockey / lawyer / law related / New York City32 Comments

Dear Ms. Martin: For many months, Jane had been talking about how wonderful your first New York Blades hockey Romance, Body Check, was. When I finally succumbed to reading it, I was elated with almost everything about it. I especially loved the set-up between the taciturn hero and the career-minded ... more >
