A review by timap
Dangler by Colleen Charles
4.0
Kingsley, the female lead, left her family to pursue her dream instead of leading the life her parents dictated. Now an established therapist, she’s pursuing her music dreams on the side.
Cash, the male lead, has been a hockey player for years with a locked recording studio in his house. He secretly plans to write/record music when he’s finished with hockey but, when an accidental stick to the throat threatens to derail his dreams, he’s desperate to get the best assistance.
Kingsley and Cash are attracted to each other but acting on that attraction is inappropriate…for now. So they build a friendship in the meantime. But they’re both guarded, because of their pasts, and not sharing much of themselves with each other.When disruption comes, maybe they can’t hold together…
This story is dual POV, well written and edited, and an interesting addition to the series. I find particularly interesting that this story and the one before ended with the lead male characters leaving hockey as a profession. I appreciated both characters’ determination to create their own destinies away from what their parents wanted. I enjoyed the integrated secondary characters. I actively laughed at a few scenes. I enjoyed the intimate scenes. I admit I didn’t like this story as much as others by this author. I think I felt like the lead characters overreacted at a few points. I’m not sad I read it, though, and am looking forward to the next one.
