Accidentally just read almost the exact same book as the last one I read just do the man was a hockey player instead of a lawyer。 Surprise 5 year old and all。I， in my flu-dazed state， have just been adding any random book I see a tik tok about to my kindle and reading it so I really have no idea what I’m getting myself into with any of them。This story was nice， nothing groundbreaking， really no complaints， they be fuckin A LOT but I suppose that’s some people’s sole reason for reading these book Accidentally just read almost the exact same book as the last one I read just do the man was a hockey player instead of a lawyer。 Surprise 5 year old and all。I， in my flu-dazed state， have just been adding any random book I see a tik tok about to my kindle and reading it so I really have no idea what I’m getting myself into with any of them。This story was nice， nothing groundbreaking， really no complaints， they be fuckin A LOT but I suppose that’s some people’s sole reason for reading these books sooooo whatever。 The next one seems like it’s gonna have hella banter which I’m excited to see 。。。more

this wasn’t for me i guess。 my biggest issue was def the kid who’s supposed to be the main plot and even when he’s in these scenes he’s still completely sidelined throughout the book。 i went into this wanting angst and cute dad and son scenes with drew and graham and instead i got scenes of the two mains hanging out in one chapter—without the kid btw—and then the next three chapters reading these characters telling their friends about them hanging out， discussing their problems or their feelings this wasn’t for me i guess。 my biggest issue was def the kid who’s supposed to be the main plot and even when he’s in these scenes he’s still completely sidelined throughout the book。 i went into this wanting angst and cute dad and son scenes with drew and graham and instead i got scenes of the two mains hanging out in one chapter—without the kid btw—and then the next three chapters reading these characters telling their friends about them hanging out， discussing their problems or their feelings we’ve already heard before。 rinse and repeat。 should’ve realised this after reading this guy have literally no reaction to learning he’s a dad。 and the kid still doesn’t know drew is his father 70% into the book and spent next to no time with him， why？ cause the two mains are too caught up in each other to get around to it。 and as for audrey and drew together？ i’m boreeeedd。 graham’s apparently the number one priority to his parents but he’s always at his uncles house and out of sight lol。 maybe it’s my maternal instincts talking but don’t bother adding a child to the book if you’re not going to include him the way a child should be included 😭 。。。more

Center Ice is the first installment of the Boston Rebels Series。 It follows Andrew （Drew） Jenkins and Audrey Flynn。 Audrey and Drew originally met back in college when Audrey was tutoring Drew in calculus。 They hooked up one night before Drew left to go play NHL in Vancouver。 Unbeknownst to him， Audrey ended up pregnant。 She attempted to call him however， he was extremely busy and never answered or returned her phone calls。Years later， Drew has been traded and is now returning back to Boston。 Hi Center Ice is the first installment of the Boston Rebels Series。 It follows Andrew （Drew） Jenkins and Audrey Flynn。 Audrey and Drew originally met back in college when Audrey was tutoring Drew in calculus。 They hooked up one night before Drew left to go play NHL in Vancouver。 Unbeknownst to him， Audrey ended up pregnant。 She attempted to call him however， he was extremely busy and never answered or returned her phone calls。Years later， Drew has been traded and is now returning back to Boston。 His mother’s health is declining and he intends on being back for the long term and is set on proving himself to his team that he is worth keeping。 Only， he finds himself face to face with Audrey again and standing with her is a 5 year old that looks identical to him。 I loved this book so much！ I love how strong and independent Audrey is。 She doesn’t need a man and stands on her own while being the best mother to her son。 Drew fully understands that Audrey is independent but he wants to be there to help take the load off。 He instantly stepped into dad mode as soon as he found out he was a father。 There was no freak out moment just instantly wanting to be in his son’s life。 I highly recommend this book！𝙍𝙚𝙖𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙞𝙛 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚:* Single Mom* Secret Baby* He Falls First* Hockey Romance* Second Chance* Strong Female * Golden Retriever MMC 。。。more

Just lovely。What a beautiful romantic story。 Very nicely written and loved the characters。 I was waiting for the proverbial shoe to drop where things would go south， but it was just surprising to see it have just a small glitch and then the story works out。 An uplifting story。 And， yes， there are some ‘racy’ scenes as well。 Recommend。

Center Ice by Julia Connors Drew & Audrey Julia is a new to me author and I can say wirh confidence this will not be the last book I read from her！ Usually secret baby is not one of my fav tropes unless it's done really well。 I can say this was done amazingly。 There wasn't long out drama over the secret。 I loved how it was quickly hashed out and loved even more that Drew jumped right in。 With everything else he had going on in his life he did not hesitate！ It was all I'm a dad。 I'm going to be a Center Ice by Julia Connors Drew & Audrey Julia is a new to me author and I can say wirh confidence this will not be the last book I read from her！ Usually secret baby is not one of my fav tropes unless it's done really well。 I can say this was done amazingly。 There wasn't long out drama over the secret。 I loved how it was quickly hashed out and loved even more that Drew jumped right in。 With everything else he had going on in his life he did not hesitate！ It was all I'm a dad。 I'm going to be a dad and I'm also going to make you mine！ And I freaking loved every minute of it！ I devoured this book！ Audrey and Drew were absolutely perfect for one another and Graham was the sweetest little boy！The chemistry was insane。 The connection was undeniable。 While they both had trust issues， the way they worked through them was amazing。 And the foundation the built and their growth！ 🙌🏼🙌🏼 and of course all the hockey！！！ We know I love my Hockey boys！！ It's spicy， packs all the feels。Def a must read！ Can't wait for Colt & Jules because I have no doubt that's going to be a fav read！！ 😍😍 。。。more

I absolutely love Julia Connors。 And since I’m a sucker for the secret baby trope， I was salivating for this one！Audrey was Drew’s tutor back in college。 They hooked up and ended up going their separate ways。 When they find themselves back in the same city again， he finds out that she has a son…that looks just like him。 I don’t want to spoil anything， but I will say Drew is sweet， swoony， sexy…and the mouth on this man？！ YES！！！ I adored this book。

Another fantastic hockey romance from Conners。 I loved the glimpses into the stresses of hockey life。 The trades， the locker rooms， the travel， and balancing the job and family obligations。 I thought that Drew did a great job finding a way to be there for his family while still being an elite athlete。 I loved how he figured out quickly how to be there for Audrey too。I also loved getting more Jameson in this book and getting to see him through the lense of his sister， Audrey， being the lead femal Another fantastic hockey romance from Conners。 I loved the glimpses into the stresses of hockey life。 The trades， the locker rooms， the travel， and balancing the job and family obligations。 I thought that Drew did a great job finding a way to be there for his family while still being an elite athlete。 I loved how he figured out quickly how to be there for Audrey too。I also loved getting more Jameson in this book and getting to see him through the lense of his sister， Audrey， being the lead female。 He will forever be my favorite。 But I loved getting to know his sisters more。 Audrey is an amazing career woman， friend， and sister。 She's also an amazing mom。 I loved watching her and Drew reconnect。Graham was such a fun kiddo。 I loved how into sports he was but also how he loved to read。 I also loved how he and Drew connected。 Now， the romance！ This books was absolutely hot！ I loved every romantic and sexy moment in this book。 There were a lot of fun moments and it was all so well written。I definitely have a book hangover after this one！I received an advanced copy of this book through the author。 This is my honest review。 。。。more

Is secret baby now a top trope for me？ When Drew is traded to Boston and attends a party at his agents house he doesn’t expect to run into his tutor from college who he hooked up with before being drafted。 He REALLY didn’t expect to then see she has a kid， who’s a mini version of him。 I loved this， Drew was the definition of a man obsessed and I couldn’t get enough。 Audrey was so funny and accomplished I love that we got to see her business， friendships and family and not just her being a mom。 ⭐ Is secret baby now a top trope for me？ When Drew is traded to Boston and attends a party at his agents house he doesn’t expect to run into his tutor from college who he hooked up with before being drafted。 He REALLY didn’t expect to then see she has a kid， who’s a mini version of him。 I loved this， Drew was the definition of a man obsessed and I couldn’t get enough。 Audrey was so funny and accomplished I love that we got to see her business， friendships and family and not just her being a mom。 ⭐️4。5🌶️2/5 。。。more
