Such a good ending for the series. I really enjoyed the suspense of this storyline. I loved following Jordan’s journey of self discovery and watching Camden settle down after being the playboy of the team for the earlier books. This was a fun hockey series and the spice in this and the previous book was top tier.

This is another adorable hockey romance where he’s literally the best man. Including a Powerhouse of a FMC this book channels the energy of the other woman movie (but a solo act). The banter is top tier and once again, they are totally made for each other. No matter how many times they deny it, their chemistry is off the charts. And Pumpkin muffins are definitely the best.

“Chicken Salad.”
‘Ground up and in the freezer.’

An average steamy friends to lovers hockey romance set in the world of the rich and elite.

Stand and Defend tells the story of Camden and Jordan. Jordan is in an abusive relationship with her fiance Bryan who is also sleeping with her best friend. After this is revealed to her at their joint bachelor-bachelorette parties, she calls off the wedding and forms a friendship with Camden - hockey team  captain and forever playboy.

An overall decent smutty sports romance. No really memorable characters or plot points. 

Check for content warnings.
