Victor by Brenda Rothert
4.0
Belinda “Lindy” Boring certainly doesn’t live up to her last name. Victor Lane shows there’s stuff off the ice that players need to deal with. For those of you that are hockey/baseball fans, you’re going to love Lindy’s dad – he’s a real hoot. You will also meet some of the other players on Victor’s team, the Chicago Blaze.
Lindy may have a connection to the reader if you’re a sports fan. Maybe you have a favorite hockey team. What would you do if your favorite player started talking to you? Have you ever wondered what it would be like to work at the team’s home venue? The author shows that men who play sports are real once they’re off the ice. They have the same thoughts and wants as everyone else. The author shows that we don’t need to put them up on a pedestal because they’re just as human as we are.
It’s nice to see that the scenes between Lindy and Victor seem so natural. Our author builds their relationship and doesn’t rush our couple into anything. They have a lot going on in their lives before they met. It was also nice to see the connection Lindy had with her father. I can relate since I had one similar with my own dad. Ms. Rothert creates the perfect mix of personal and professional – it’s not all about hockey. Now with the heat getting into the 90’s, I may want to go and try to read in a freezer unit – not. I’m all about setting the mood so instead of a freezer unit maybe I’ll just get myself a cup of ice instead.
There are happy and chuckle moments. And there are even some hold your breath, heart hurt and sad moments. Our author creates plenty of things to make me happy and glad that I read her latest Chicago Blaze book. My sad moment came when the author left me hanging – is there a next book or not. It’s ok if you haven’t read any of the previous books. But I hope that if you like this one that you will go back and check out the ones you’ve missed. I can see having a Chicago Blaze marathon once hockey season starts up again.
I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
