Hot Flashes and Hockey Slashes by Sylvie Stewart, Marika Ray
5.0
So much fun to read!
I read this book on a whim based on the fun blurb hoping for a light and breezy rom-com, but I got so much more than that!
This storyline had me laughing, sympathizing, cringing and more. When Olivia gets the invitation to her ex-husband’s destination wedding to a woman she didn’t even know he was dating has her calling her best friend up to chat about burying his body over decaf coffee. When her teenage daughter and her college roommate tell her they already have plan for her fake plus one Olivia really starts to worry.
Roman is the oldest hockey player in the NHL and between ice baths and achy muscles and joints he’s looking for a chance to get himself back in his daughter’s good graces after missing some important events. He jumps at the chance to spend a week in Belize with her even if it involves being someone’s fake date at a wedding.
This book was addictive fun, with engaging and relatable characters, and an emotionally satisfying romance. It doesn’t hurt that the steam wasn’t just due to the tropical location, and definitely due to the sizzling connection between Olivia and Roman.
I’m super eager to read more by these authors!
