Melting the Ice by Beth Bolden
4.0
Definitely the start of a new series, we have to learn the characters and it takes a while to get the full narrative. This story is centred around two apparently straight guys. Although, there was a slight feeling that Dean hadn't had the luxury to think about his personal life, so maybe his feelings for a man just hadn't had the opportunity to surface. Having spent his whole life surviving and striving to be the best, possibly kept him from have realised sooner.
A double bi-awakening which takes time to evolve. This story reminds you that these men are still young underneath their manly bodies and life decisions are big deals. Brody, especially, has decisions to make whether to stay in hockey or take his studies further. Not an easy decision when everyone assumes playing hockey for the NHL should be his only goal. These characters dominate the story, like in a bubble as they figure things out. As a dual bi-awakening the steam is low. We are given clues about possible romances in this series. I am looking forward to Coach B's story. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
