Release Day Blitz - Drive by Brenda Rothert




My Thoughts

Sadie writes an online column about dating. After more than her share of disastrous dates, she decides to write about being on her own for a time without having a man in her life. Unfortunately at this same time super sexy Niko begins to pursue her which challenges her on so many levels. This is out of the ordinary for Niko as he doesn't like for anything to interfere with his game. He has a family to think of as he so wants to help make their lives easier. He has always considered relationships to be a distraction. There is something very different about Sadie though. He wants more with her. They begin to lower the walls and fall for each other. Spending time getting to know each other brings them so close. Sadie has lost her family in an accident and hasn't let anyone in until Niko. Both fear getting their hearts broken, but lose themselves to each other regardless. Theirs is such a sweet and sexy love story.

This was the first book I read in the series and I am totally hooked. I immediately bought the rest of the books which I am currently devouring. Brenda writes in a way that invites you into Sadie and Niko's world. I hated to leave it when I reached the end of her book. Brenda also surrounds them with a wonderful group of friends that you can't help but fall in love with and want to know more about. Reading Drive really was like making new friends and feeling like you knew them forever. I absolutely LOVED this book and am now a HUGE fan of Brenda's. 

I give Drive 5 hearts!

About the Book

Years of training are about to pay off for hockey player Nikola Vereshkova. A call to play in the big league means he can finally come through for those who need him. His relocation to Chicago comes with built-in friends – and one gorgeous enemy who was less than impressed with him after their first encounter. 

Sadie Alexander knows all about the drastic measures men will take just to get laid. She’s not only experienced it first-hand, but lived to tell about it in her online column, Sadie Says. And even though she’s a die-hard independent woman on the outside, the recent marriage of her best friend has her secretly feeling more alone than ever. 


Getting close to a foul-mouthed Russian hockey heartthrob was the last thing Sadie expected. And the timing couldn’t be worse since she’s sworn off of men for a writing assignment. The line between love and hate is eroding, and Niko and Sadie find themselves in deeper than they ever expected. Could something that started out wrong end up being just right?

The Fire On Ice Series



Synopsis

College senior Kate Camden has learned to adapt - to her last year of school, to the promise of motherhood, to the fact that she’s doing it all alone. But just when she’s learned to adjust, heartache threatens to break her apart.

Pro hockey player Jason “Ryke” Ryker has it all: adoring fans, a promising career, and a beautiful wife. But when his seemingly perfect life is shaken by tragedy, he’s left questioning whether having it all is ever more than an illusion.

When circumstance brings Kate and Ryke together, they discover they don’t have to hurt alone. Bound by a grief that haunts them both, they must rely on one another to survive heartbreak. But that grief is more powerful than they realize, and the tie that binds them together may ultimately tear them apart.  


Synopsis

Two years ago, Jason and Kate Ryker were brought together by grief and bound to one another by love. Now married, they’re confronting their fears together.

But heartbreak finds them again, and the ties that bind Kate and Ryke are tested as she struggles against fear and sadness. As a grief counselor, Kate understands all too well the pain of her clients. And while her husband’s career as an NHL forward is at an all-time high, he’s coping with the frustration of feeling powerless as his wife's hopes slip away.

Kate’s unexpected journey sheds light on the fear that imprisons her, and reveals that only she can set herself free. 



Synopsis

One bad hit has left the career of young NHL Center Luke Hudson in question. When he arrives for rehab with a minor league team, his injury has robbed him of the edge that made him great.

Team trainer Adella Price’s job is to help Luke get back in peak condition. But their one on one sessions shake her resolve to remain unattached. Dell is hands-off to all hockey players, even one as charming and successful as Luke. 

As Luke starts to get ahold of his game again, he loses his grip on his heart. Helping Luke get his edge back brings to light what Dell is missing from her life. But those who want them apart are relentless, and with their careers on the line, Luke and Dell must decide if their love is worth risking it all.
