Wrap Around is a well-balanced achillean romance with hockey drama, religious trauma, and one very unconventional little family. This story deals with some very serious subjects, including long-term healing from abuse. I felt the topic  was handled respectfully. This high tension is not without high reward: this spice hits the spot. You know the one. 

You don't need to like hockey to love this book. I am not a sports birdie but I'm very much a fan of men learning emotional vulnerability. 

Thanks so much to the author for sending an ARC my way. I'm leaving this review of my own accord.
