Nine years ago, Celine Hernandez broke my heart. Eight years ago, she stomped on it for good measure. When Celine moved to LA after high school, I enlisted in the Marines.
After an honorable discharge, I’m home, in Tennessee, living out my dream as a professional hockey player. Now, she’s back in our hometown, filming a movie, and reminding me of a past I’ve tried to forget.
She’s got her name up in lights. She’s shining so bright; she’s acting like she never left. Celine’s everywhere I go — visiting my Gran, having coffee dates with my sister — and forcing me to remember a time when life wasn’t so harsh. When I was whole and thriving. Happy.
But I can’t trust those feelings anymore. I’m not the same man Celine remembers. I’ve lost too much, grieved too hard, and am too broken down for do-overs.
Is my ex-everything a risk my heart can handle? Or is our second chance more sacrifice than salvation?

Nancy’s Review
I’ve been enjoying this new hockey series by Azzi. Beau is a unique character because not only is hockey his career, but he also had another as a soldier in the Marines. Beau’s challenge is that he suffers from PTSD from his time serving. He carries some serious demons, understandably. Celine is his high school love. She’s now a big Hollywood star and back in TN filming a movie. This book was a beautiful second-chance romance. Celine is longing for peace in her life and to find her something more. Beau just wants to live his without the grief and inner turmoil that haunts him. While this book is steamy and fun, it’s also a superb example of how another person can be the balm to your soul. Fall in love all over again with Celine and Beau. 4 stars!
