Stand and Defend by Sloane St. James

emotional

5.0

This is the 4th and final book of the Lakes Hockey Series but WOW, what a way to end it!!! Sloane just blows me away with her writing every single book as she perfectly combines unique, in depth plots with hockey and crazy HOT spice!! I just absolutely adored everything about Cam and Jordan’s story as it was an incredible journey of growth and love that gave me ALL the feels! 

The character development and depth in Camden and Jordan’s story was just phenomenal and beautifully written! Jordan began the story at a dark point in her life but throughout the story you watch her strength grow in reclaiming her life back which was so empowering! At the same time, Camden is just a TOP TIER man who is so supportive in whatever she wants to do (even during the spicy times) while also protecting her at all costs. I loved watching him show Jordan how a woman deserves to be treated as he helps her gain back her independence and freedom! Just a remarkable storyline!!!

There were SO MANY amazing aspects intertwined into this story including all the HILARIOUS puns that had me laughing, lots of found family moments with characters we love from the other books in this series, little swoony moments between Cam and Jordan and OFF THE CHARTS spice! WOW, I didn't think these books could get even hotter!! Overall, it was just such a perfect culmination to this series and could not have been a better way to say goodbye to these characters! 

This WHOLE ENTIRE series is a MUST read if you love hockey and spice!!!
