Sneak Attack by Stacey Lynn

 





Synopsis:


A sneak attack by the girl who broke my heart, reminds me what could have been…

I might have made it as an NFL quarterback, but I was still me– still living in my hometown north of Nashville and tackling being a single dad. The media assumed I wore a halo beneath my helmet, but they didn’t know my tragic past. I was no angel.

Because the only woman I ever truly loved was the girl who stole my heart when it was committed to another, and I never recovered from the mess we created.

Seven years is a long time to wait for a second chance. I tried to move on and live without her. Now, Eden’s returned home to haunt me all over again, making me feel all the things I can’t deny when she’s near.

She might have her running shoes strapped on tight, but I’m desperate for her to stay this time. In order to do that, I need to find a way for us to put the past where it truly belongs, buried six feet deep with the person whose death still stands between us.

I didn’t become one of the best in the league by playing it safe. Eden’s always been mine, and it’s time she finally learns it, too.

Review:



Sneak Attack is the first book in a new hockey romance written by Stacey Lynn. It was a first for me reading this author's work, and I was sucked into the story from the beginning to end, thanks to the writing, the storyline, and all the feels that were conveied.

Eden comes back to Marysville to help her ill old neighbour. Coming back after seven years and to face her past isn't easy for Eden, will she forgive herself in order to go on? Or will she run away holding on her faults?
Cole is an NFL player and the town golden boy, now that the woman he loves, and that he loved for years, is back he wants to finally conquer her.

Eden and Cole journey is packed with drama, sorrow, sweetness, affection and passion.
Eden is a sensitive woman, and Cole is a kind man, they didn't expect that their mistake could have such terrible consequences, that they faced in different ways, the first ran away and the latter seeked forgiveness. They never stopped to love each other when they were far away, and they have little to no chance to stay away now that they live in the same town.
I adored the way Cole kept fighting for their love, eventually putting Eden on the spot in order to make her understand she deserved to be loved and happy.

Having met some of Cole's teammates I'm looking forward to next book.
