Review / Release Blitz: Broken Laces (Eagles Hockey #1) by Elise Faber


Broken Laces by Elise Faber is available now!
https://geni.us/BrokenLaces
Available on All Platforms

I’m in love with the owner’s daughter.
I played my entire career with the San Francisco Gold.
But now I’ve been traded to our rivals, and I’m playing for Jean-Michel Dubois, owner of the Oakland Eagles, my new boss, and father to the woman I’m in love with.
And he’s made it clear that anyone who so much as looks at Chrissy will find themselves out of the league.
The problem is that I end up moving in right next door to her.
And the more time I spend with Chrissy, the harder it is to keep my distance.
I just…can’t have her.
Because if I do, I’ll lose everything.

Broken Laces is a forced proximity, forbidden love, secret relationship, wrong side of the tracks romance featuring a team of misfits and bad boys who are going to puck you in the best possible way.

*This title is book 1 in my new Eagles Hockey series and will stand alone (with no cliffhangers!)


MY REVIEW

Rome's not sure what he did to the universe to make it hate him so much - why it got him traded from his found family the Gold hockey team, to the Eagles, but he'll just have to soldier on. Then he meets his new neighbor and suddenly life's looking up, a lot. Until he realizes she's off-limits as the owner Jean-Michel's daughter. Yep. But the heart wants what the heart wants and Rome's determined to get his animal rescuing Chrissy to let him in. Even if they have to keep their relationship a secret, for awhile anyway...


Ever since that night all those years ago, when something horrific happened to her, Chrissy has lived under her father's protective thumb. She practically lives with him, allows him to watch over her 24/7, works part time with his team, and basically does nothing to upset him because she knows he could not take it if something happened to her again. But when she meets her new neighbor, who happens to be the new captain of her father's new hockey team, she's finding she wants something just for herself, regardless of what her father is bound to think. But until she can shore up her backbone, she needs to keep Rome a secret, even if it may hurt them. Has she left it too late, or can she grow enough nerve to stand up for herself and let her father know she's going to be with Rome, regardless of what he thinks?

Rome, oh Rome...what a sweet, patient swoony guy! He's Chrissy's rock, patiently waiting for her, comforting her, standing by her even when it could mean he'll lose hockey. Chrissy, wow, I felt for her, knowing how badly that night damaged her, but more significantly, her father, to the point they had this co-dependent relationship that wasn't healthy for either of them. I cheered her on when she stood up to him, and shed a few tears when it looked like it was going to be for nothing. I know this is the start to a new series, and if it's any indication, the Eagles crew is going to be just as amazing as the Gold!

My book boyfriends go with me everywhere. I prefer them tall, dark, and handsome, but I don’t discriminate. They sweep me off my feet and are always there when I need them—in my purse, in my car, and even in my bathtub. Book boyfriends may not be real, but at least they won’t break my heart… or get another girl pregnant. I don’t do relationships. I get one whiff and run in the opposite direction. It took me seven years to mend my broken heart, and I’m not about to hand it over again. That’s why I can’t fall for Beckett. With his Clark Kent glasses and brooding stare, he’s a superhero in disguise. And his superpower? Melting panties with a single ...

Review: Winter Interlude: An American Revolutionary Novelette (American Revolutionary Tales 2) by Regina Kammer

Review of Winter Interlude: An American Revolutionary Novelette by Regina Kammer Captain Samuel Taylor and Lieutenant Patrick Hamilton recall their first steamy encounter, which was a MFM threesome in a brothel. It morphed into more and now the two are contemplating their futures with the women they love, and their futures with each other. If you think times are hard for the LGBT community now, think of how hard they were during the American Revolution. Winter Interlude is well developed, which is surprising given its short length. I am so interested in knowing what is to become of Samuel and Patrick's forbidden relationship. Do they stay together? Or do they go their separate ways, and live out their lives with their women? Now that they've admitted their love for each other, how impossible would it be for them to be without each other? I have to know, now! If you like MM fiction and/or historical fiction, I highly recommend you give Winter Interlude a read. It...

Susan Arden has revealed the covers for Seduced By The Senator! Releasing June 17, 2024 What's your dirty little secret? Mine involves a handsome stranger. It began in a darkened hallway. This man's touch had me coming undone. Not only is he tall, brilliant, gorgeous, and sexy as sin, he left me wanting more. He haunts my fantasies until I read about him: Senator Bennett Stone. Armed with his name, I dig for the truth. Stone is from Atlanta and is independently wealthy. A billionaire. He's rumored to be the next vice president. Tasting forbidden fruit, I can't settle for the cloying secrecy of my family. Or their plans for me as a pawn who'll live in a gilded cage where women are expected to look beautiful and keep silent. I have to act fast. Thanks to a connection, Stone is my new boss. He's my ticket to freedom -- if he doesn't fire me on the spot when I reintroduce myself... Xavia Stillman Kennedy.
