REVIEW:
4.5 Stars
Another winner in this series! I couldn't put this book down. Dex has a reputation and it's not good. He is in hot water and now he one chance at redemption is volunteering at an animal shelter. That will forever change his life for the better because Ashely and her daughter bring out the best in Dex. He is such a better man, but the best part he wants to be. We learn that his childhood has greatly impacted the person he is. It has left some scars on his heart. One of the best parts of the book for me was seeing Dex realize how man people he truly has in his corner. Ashely's ex is a piece of work. I felt for Willa because I completely get being disappointed by your dad. That was my childhood as well. It was so beautiful to see Dex build up Willa and he loves her the way she is. Those were some of my favorite scenes, the ones with Willa and Dex. Willa is a smart little cookie and I love her word of the day. Another favorite part for me is how Dex makes Ashely feel about herself. He makes her feel beautiful, swoon. I just love this hockey team and all the personalities, but Theo will forever own a piece of my heart. This book just proved that even more. This book has the perfect combo of heat, heart, and humor. It is a book that just sucks you right in. The characters had me hooked. I recommend this one!
BLURB:
Chicago Rebels hockey player Dex O'Malley has been a naughty boy ... again.
Only his latest stunt isn’t quite like when he was caught with his pants down at a nightclub or was cited for drag-racing on Lake Shore Drive or even that time he said a few critical things about his teammates on a hockey podcast. Oops. This time, Dex is in real trouble, the kind that could get him kicked off the team and out of the league. And that cannot happen. Hockey is the only thing he’s ever been good at. The only thing he cares about. He’ll do whatever it takes to rehab his rep, even if it means cleaning up dog poop and suffering the steely-eyed disapproval of his new no-nonsense “boss” at the animal shelter, Ashley Adams.
Ashley has enough on her plate between her low-paying job, her high-maintenance family, and a love life she’s trying to resurrect after her divorce. She’s already mom to an amazing nine-year-old; the last thing she needs is mothering a celebrity volunteer with more money than sense. But the troublemaking f-boy needs Ashley to sign off on his good deeds so he can get back to what he does best: lighting up lamps both on and off the ice. And while a guy like that could never interest her mind, it seems her body is not on the same page. Sure, Dex O’Malley is too young, too hot, too flighty for Ashley to take seriously, but maybe a brief ride on the wild side might fit the bill …
Only that’s not enough for Dex. What happens when this notorious player decides the older, single mom is the hottest woman he’s ever met and that he wants to light her lamp … forever?
