Anton by Brenda Rothert

She thought she was damaged ghetto goods
Mia Brown Marceau's husband Adam was a total azz. I can not understand why a man would marry a woman and proceed to treat her like crap and expect her to take it forever. I guess Adam must have felt that he was entitled to all of the puck bunnies that came his way with him being an NHL hockey player. What Mia did not know was that she had a secret admirer who respectfully kept his distance until he accidentally discovered that she desperately needed help in just surviving since her husband cut her off financially to try to force her to come back to him.
I like the way that Mia and Anton became friends and kept a respectful distance from each other. All the while Anton was figuring out how he could keep Mia and keep her as close as he could and get her the help she needed. I loved how he got revenge on Adam after what he pulled on Mia. He got all that he deserved for doing what he did. Mia was so afraid that she would lose Anton when she came clean about being damaged. He loved her just that much to not let her go and respect her for wanting to finish school and be independent. That's what a real man does. for his lady.
I liked Uncle Dix. I knew there was more to him than just being a crotchety old fart. It was so heartwarming to see that he ended his days by hearing from the love of his life. I was disappointed with the way the story ended. I wanted more of an HEA for Mia and Anton, but I guess that will be covered in the next part of the Chicago Blaze Hockey series.
