Laces and Lace by Toni Aleo
4.0
I finished In The Crease and rushed to read this right after, so no quotes from me today. This was nearly a 5 stars from me.
Nine years after not seeing one another and fate decided it needed to end. One night a very sad Lacy and a drunk Karson literally run in to one another by chance. It seems like nearly a decade didn't mean that any feelings faded. One night turned into another, and the next turned into a forever.
Lacey's family is a manipulative mess. For years she allowed them to dictate her life and when she finds Karson again she decides to take the reins.
I adore Karson King. The way he talks about Lacey makes my cold heart warm. He's such a dream it's almost sickly sweet. One of the reasons this was a four stars was because while he completely adored her, I didn't feel the same strong feelings from Lacey. I wish she trusted Karson more and was just as whipped.
Regardless, I still loved this book. I could feel the connection between these two. It reminded me that love doesn't know time or hurt. It knows two hearts that aren't to be together.
This story can be frustrating because Karson is dreamy, but Lacey and her family are making things difficult. I don't think you should give up. Watching two people in love always has it's obstacles, but it's the best when they push through it.

Spoiler
This isn't really a spoiler, but just in case I added it. Toni Aleo writes steamy sex scenes like no other. Now when you have a sexy hockey player who worships women it only adds to it. But that one sex scene between Lacy and Karson had me dying. They decided to try a new some fun butt stuff. Not only was the sex written great, but also the communication. I love when couples are written communicating well during sex because it's very important. On an end note, can I have a Karson?This story can be frustrating because Karson is dreamy, but Lacey and her family are making things difficult. I don't think you should give up.
