Hit ‘em Hard by Kat Mizera
This is the third book in the Bang Brothers Hockey series, it can be read as a standalone.

Bailey was physically assaulted by her boyfriend when she broke up with him on the ride home from an awards show. He went absolutely rage bananas and caused an accident that killed the driver and left Bailey disabled. He got away without a scratch or jail time. Boo Dirk!

We feel so many of Bailey's emotions as she works on healing. She is in constant physical pain, has severe anxiety, PTSD, and has shut herself off from the world. Except for a few friends and her gamer family. The press in Hollywood is awful, especially to women. Bailey is absolutely aware of the possible stories if she is recognized in public.

Jensen is a romantic at heart. His care of Bailey is the stuff of swooning legend! He is as patient with her as possible, while also asking for what he needs. He gets a huge wakeup call when she is recognized in an obnoxious ambush.

I loved the scene when Bailey's agent is reading her the positive comments. And Bailey realizes that she can be disabled and be a role model.

I got the Bang Brothers series through their Kickstarter because I thought the premise was just wacky enough and I liked some of the authors already. I'm halfway through the series, and each book has been so good! I didn't know about Bailey's disability going into the book, but once I read more, it became clear to me that I would be reviewing this wonderful story for #ReadDisabled2024. This book is for the prompt Romance or Contemporary Book with a Disabled Main Character.
