HAPPY BOOK WEEK: BENCHED (GOLD HOCKEY) BY ELISE FABER

 

 

 

 

 
This single dad hockey player plays to win...

Benched by Elise Faber is available now!

 

 

 

Max Montgomery was at the height of his career, playing the best hockey of his life, and lucky enough to have a starting spot on a team that was actually a contender for the Cup.And one by one his friends were falling in love.

 

Love. Now that was a dirty four-letter word if he’d ever heard one.

 

Max had experienced love and all of its aftereffects and where had that gotten him?

 

Lonely, living in an apartment, and paying alimony to a woman who’d left him at the merest sign of a hiccup in their marriage.

 

His only bright spot was his son. Brayden had moved back in with him a few months ago, after his mother had taken off to God knew where. Max loved having him home, but with his son only seven and him on the road for forty-two games a year, they’d struggled. Still, they’d found a way to make it work.

 

But then Brayden threw Max a completely new curve ball.

 

He wanted Max to find a wife.

 

Max had been there, done that, got the crappy T-shirt as a souvenir. No way would he make himself vulnerable like that again, no matter how much his son wanted it.

 

A puppy was a perfectly viable alternative, right?

 

At least that was what he’d been thinking until he met Angelica Shallows, sister to the team’s Physical Therapist guru, Mandy, and a brilliant engineer in her own right. She was gorgeous, smart, but had shadows in her eyes.

 

Max knew all about shadows, knew they were meant as a sign for him to stay away.

 

What was that about the best intentions paving the road to hell? Max may have wanted to stay away, may have wanted to abide the warning signs in Angie’s eyes, but—

 

The real trouble began when found that he couldn’t do either of those things.

 

 

REVIEWBENCHED (GOLD HOCKEY) BY ELISE FABER

 

 

Benched (Gold Hockey Book 4)Benched by Elise Faber

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Right from the start Faber taps into the emotions behind the relationships of her characters. There is always an element of yearning to round out the overpowering attraction. Benched is no exception. Max and Angie have both been lonely too long and too stubborn to admit it. Lucky for them fate doesn't give in easily. When it comes to matters of the heart, they've finally met their match and it comes in the form a 7 year old matchmaker. Max is every bit as cute as he is determined and he plays to win. Benched is a heart stealer that hit all the right moves to score a goal.
