From the New York Times bestselling author of Pucked and A Lie for a Lie, a new stand-alone romance about trading favors, battling wills, and winning love.
When I joined Seattle’s NHL expansion team, I thought it was the start of something great. But nothing ever goes the way you expect. Take my introduction to my new neighbor. She came rolling in on the hot mess express at midnight, making a racket while she tried to get into my team captain’s apartment. Did I mention that he’s married to a woman who definitely was not her?
Imagine my surprise when I end up with an injury that has me out of the game for weeks, and she’s the one to offer to help me. I should probably add that she’s not the captain’s mistress. She’s his sexy, pastel-haired younger sister.
So we come up with an arrangement: she rehabs me so that I can get back on the ice sooner, and she can add a professional athlete that isn’t her brother to her client list. Seems simple enough. As long as I can keep my hands to myself and my hormones in check.

I loved everything about A FAVOR FOR A FAVOR, Helena Hunting’s newest addition to in the All In series.  It is a funny and heartwarming hockey romance with endearing characters.

 

Stevie and Bishop live across the hall from each other and from the moment they meet, there are fireworks. They constantly argue and throw sarcastic barbs at each other. All the while, trying to ignore the heat simmering between them.

 

Bishop is socially inept. He doesn’t like most people and he doesn’t care if people like him. He says what is on his mind and often comes off as a jerk, but he is a good guy underneath his tough, good looking exterior. Bishop is new to the Seattle hockey team and all he cares about is proving himself to his team.

 

It is fun watching Stevie and Bishop dance around each other as they trade quips and put downs. I also enjoyed all the entertaining secondary characters and can’t wait to read their stories. If you like sexy hockey players and great dialogue, don’t pass this one by.
