I have missed Anna Sugden’s ice-hockey heroes so I am thrilled to see them back and this one had me turning the pages as we get to know one of the NHL Newark Dockers stars Dante Fireman Taylor as he gets a second chance to prove his love for chocolatier Lily Eddison, of course there are a few hurdles to cross before they get to their much deserved HEA but we all know that true love never runs smoothly but those hurdles are worth it.

Lily is doing so well with her gourmet chocolate company Sweet Temptations that is until her landlord throws a spanner in the works and now she needs investors to keep the business running, with help from a friend she is encouraged to take help from the person who broke her heart Dante Taylor, he is the last person she wants help from but needs must and soon Lily and Dante are spending more time together and that flame from the past is still firing up.

Dante is all about playing hockey it is a must for him getting involved with a woman will only play havoc with his career, that has been drilled into him since childhood but meeting up with Lily again has him re-thinking what a future could mean for them, until someone decides that they want Dante and no one else should have him. He must protect Lily and the Sweet Temptations because he has lost his heart again to Lily and this time he must do what he thinks is right, but is it?

I thoroughly enjoyed this story it is written with emotion and love, Lily and Dante are meant to be together, Lily is strong and loving and Dante caring and wonderful, they need to work at this second chance that they have been given, but mistakes will be made, friends, fabulous characters that add so much to the story hop in to help and love finds a way. The hockey games are so good and exciting I felt like I was in the crowd watching and the other team members are great, I do hope that we see a lot more from the Newark Dockers there are some heroes that need their heroines. This is one that I do highly recommend especially if you love a good sports romance with a wonderful hero and heroine.
