One Last Shot
by Julia Connors
I picked this up because I was craving a good hockey romance. Little did I know that I was getting way more than that. Alex (Sasha) and Petra’s story was one wild slow-burn second-chance romance story. I was instantly connected to these characters. Both strong and vulnerable. I wanted to see them get their happy ending.
Alex and Petra have a long history. I found part of enjoying this book is going in blind so I’ll just say that they were best friends that is until Alex ended the relationship. Fast forward fourteen years. Petra, who has grown to become a successful, strong woman, is asked to come to New York to meet with a mysterious client. Little does she know that Alex is the mysterious client. He is a successful hockey player In the NHL who needs her help. She leaves the meeting feeling shaken not only by the proposal but by seeing Alex again. Seeing Petra has left Alex feeling equally off kilter. It’s the way these two navigate their situation is what kept me reading. They never back down from a good fight but they also never quite open up. The underlying tension between the two of them was equal parts maddening and intriguing. My kindle nearly combusted when they finally acted on their attraction. It was fourteen plus years in the making. It did not disappoint.
All the yeses to this amazing story. I can’t wait to read more from this author. It gave me what I was craving and much more.
