Off the Ice by L.P. DoverMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
L.P. Dover is on a winning streak with OFF THE ICE the fourth book in the Breakaway series. Charlotte Strikers’ center, Justin Davis, cannot go to many places without be recognized, because not only did his team just win the Stanley Cup, but he was also the recent bachelor on the Rich and Singe reality show. After breaking up with his fake fiancée on national television, Justin decides to spend the summer at the secluded ranch he recently purchased in Wyoming. When he meets his new next-door neighbor, Meghan Taylor, he likes that he can be himself around her. Now he just needs to convince her that he’s not the arrogant athlete the media portrays him as. This contemporary sports romance is suitable for adult audiences.
I really enjoyed this book. I was looking forward to hearing Justin’s story ever since I read book two, BLOCKED. Justin is Callie Davis’ brother and teammate of Dallas Easton from that story. I liked learning more about Justin. He has grown up a lot through this series. He really is a great guy. I love how he helps Meghan with stuff around her ranch. He’s down to earth and not what the media portrays. Meghan is a sweet character. My heart went out to her being widowed so young. She is a hard worker and good mother.
The two make a wonderful couple. They have a lot of interesting obstacles they need to overcome, including dealing with Justin’s psychotic ex-fiancée; she is a piece of work. Meghan wants what is best for her daughter and is afraid to throw her in the spotlight that comes with being with Justin.
The story was skillfully written and flowed well. I read the story quickly, not being able to put it down. I enjoyed the ending. It was sweet and made the story feel complete. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.
