TOMMASO The furniture district is my personal hell. I don’t know my ass from an ottoman. But when a hot designer comes to my rescue, I realize my problems are bigger than the house I’m trying to furnish. A scorching kiss over fabric samples makes me question all my choices. But is it too late to change my entire life to get more of them? CARTER I need this gig, but my cocky new client leaves out a couple crucial details: He doesn’t mention that he's a famous hockey player. And he doesn’t own up to the way he’s always trying to undress me with his dark, broody eyes. The man throws out more mixed signals than a broken traffic light. I've never been more sexually frustrated in my entire life. I need to back away before I do something stupid, like lose my heart. Oops. Too late.

3/5

Three stars, it should have been two and a half, but I liked the ending and some moments, so I don't have the heart to rate it lower. I wish I liked it more, but I felt nothing while reading it. No connection to the characters, and especially no chemistry between them. They had great, cute scenes, but overall this couple bored me.

The idea for this story was great, we have a grumpy hockey player who felt attracted to men but never did anything about it, and an interior designer who met him at a point in his life when he couldn't need him more. Both main characters had their struggles and in the end they overcame them together, which was very sweet, but like I said, I didn't feel anything. Meaning, I'll probably forget about this book tomorrow.

I still rate it three stars, so of course there were some lovely moments like where the main characters were understanding towards each other; a costum pillow that Carter made for Tom; the nickname "sweetheart", it has been used once, but I just love it and Tom’s mom. I loved her.


  
    “Carter, I love you. I want to be with you. And even if you go back to Montana, it will still be true.”
  


Newgate and Gavin, who were the main characters of the first book, appeared a lot here. I didn't care much for them because I didn't like their book that much, but they were kind of sweet. I thought the second book would be about coach Powers, so I pretty much read it for him. I loved him even though there weren't enough scenes with him in the first book, so I wanted it to be his book, but I guess I'll have to wait a little longer for it. I hope the third book will be about him, and maybe the new grumpy goalie who appeared at the end? Who knows, I hope though.
