Synopsis
Christmas is a time for hate... Maisy Moore is not looking forward to the holiday season. As owner of the only hair salon in Gamble, Alaska, she’ll be run off her feet helping her clients get dolled up for Christmas and New Years Eve parties. Parties she’ll never be invited to. But that’s not the worst of it. As a single mom, she knows she still won’t be able to give her seven-year-old son, Jack, the kind of magical Christmas his classmates get. Telling him how much she loves him will only get a kid that age so far. If only she could give him what he really wants—to know who his dad is. The last thing Maisy needs is for NHL star Chase Evans to come waltzing back into town like he’s God’s gift to women. But that’s exactly what Chase does. After a taking a crosscheck from behind, Chase’s season is over. Instead of scoring goals, he’s recovering from shoulder surgery, and according to his mother, there’s no better place to recover than home. Because let’s face it, basking in the glow of local adoration won’t be too bad. There are no fans quite like hometown fans. The last thing Chase expects is to find Maisy Moore still single. He decides to see if maybe they could rekindle their brief romance that occurred the night of their ten-year high school reunion. But when he tries to talk to her, he discovers Maisy’s feelings of lust have turned to loathing. And he’s determined to find out why. Will Maisy manage to keep the identity of her son a secret? Will there be a holiday miracle that will reunite two hard-headed lovers? Will the BOGO special on shampoo and conditioner be a hit? Find out in the deliciously funny and ridiculously romantic final installment of the Love is a Gamble Mom-Com Series.
My Review
This was a brilliant story. It was very close to getting full marks. It's a second chance romance that I am sure you will love, especially if you like ice hockey. It is set in both a small town in America and Canada. It's a real page turning novel that I just couldn't put down. I read it all in one afternoon it was that good. It was very well written with loveable characters, which I connected with very easily. I'm not into ice hockey as it isn't big in the UK, but I loved the story all the same. I loved the pace of the book as there was never a flat spot. It brought out some great emotions. It's a really good story that I am sure will stick with you, and I loved the stories uniqueness. I definitely recommend reading this book if you love second chance romance novels. Especially those that don't have too much spice in.
So much praise goes out to the author and publishing team for creating such a wonderful and emotional story that made me feel so happy. I will definitely be looking out for more books by these authors.
