I really liked this book - mediocre hockey player on the lowest rated team in the NHL falls for a neuro doc he meets when his friend and teammate is treated by her. What can be a constant challenge reading medical romances is turning off all the training you go through when you work in healthcare is all the HIPPA and ethical violations. This book had a lot of HIPPA-related violations lol like wow. The characters use full names and identifying information when talking about their patients while outside of clinical settings. Anyway, I enjoyed this book! So many sports-related romances feature a sports-playing MC that is usually like the best player every who is also on the top team. It was nice to read about a player who is at the end of his playing career and never really made it to all the riches and fame.

CW: CTI-related injuries and long-lasting effects.

Really short romance set in NYC. Nothing objectionable just too short to really care about it. Probably good for a flight because you could read the whole thing in one shot. It’s only like 100 pages.

This was much better than the first book. Our leads both have real challenges in their lives and their conflict arises from those differences, which allows them to be honest and communicate. There are other wonderful characters that have their own journeys which adds to the richness of the story.

This book has a lot to say about loss and a sense of place and it does it in a beautiful way.
