Canadian Boyfriend was a lovely story about a struggling dance teacher and widowed hockey player who is trying to juggle a lot with his daughter and career. There were some deep important issues woven within the foundation of the story that I wasn’t expecting, however, the growing feelings between Aurora and Mike and Mike’s adorable daughter were raw and beautiful. It included the messy and complicated intricacies of life, but it also had love, support and growth. Overall, this story is for those looking for a little more depth to their romance novels.

Both Joshua Jackson and Emily Ellet did a great job with their narration.
