My Review:
It's holiday book season and what can be better than holiday stories and hockey all combined in one. I couldn't wait for this book to land on my kindle. I have to say I dove right into the book as soon as it landed on my kindle. I will also say that I had the chance to read I got to read seven of these stories in the book. There were several authors in this boxed set I have read before that I was excited about reading more of. There were some author's that I've been interested in reading and hadn't gotten to read until now. And there were a few new ones that I didn't realize that wrote hockey romances. I was trying to decide how to do this review, I always have a hard time trying to figure how to write a review on anthologies.
How We Fell in Love (Ice Cats) by Toni Aleo~ I was going to put my review of this story as the last review. But I decided to do it first instead. I have to say that if you haven't read End Game {Bellvue Bullies}, I'm not sure if you should read that book before this story or not.
This story was a bit bittersweet for me. And again if you haven't read End Game yet, I don't want to give anything away. But this is James and Grace's story.
If you don't know who Grace is, she's Shea's twin sister. Grace and James have made several appearences in the Assissans books.
I loved being able to have Grace and James story. I loved being able to have a little more of these two. I loved finally being able to have the beginning of their story.
A Wolfe Brothers Christmas (Game On in Seattle)~ I've read a couple of Mrs. Davenport's books from her hockey series. And I haven't read the other Wolfe brother's storie. I will say this book was a sweet, and touching story that brought tears to my eyes a few times. The wolfe brother's get stuck together with their families on Christmas. When they find themselves searching for a little girl that ran off while the brothers were arguing.
Christmas Crosscheck (The Dallas Comets)~ Awwww I loved Bryan and Georgiana's story. They were so cute together. Bryan and Georgie are getting ready to celebrate christmas with each other and their families. Georgie is about to meet Bryan's parents for the first time and is going through great length's to impress Bryan's family. Bryan just wants to propose to Georgie, but things may not turn out as they seem.
Dmitri's Christmas Angel (Las Vegas Sidewinders)~ I really love Mrs. Mizera's books and love the sidewinder's series. This was another cute and quick story. Dmitri and Angel were adorable together and I loved their story. And I'm so happy that Angel got her happy ending.
I read a few of the other books. I really enjoyed all of the stories that I read. I will read the rest of them when I get the opportunity.
I'm giving this anthology 4.5 Stars out of 5!!!!
