ANOTHER FACEOFF (Wildcatters Hockey #5) by Alexa Padgett Review

Another Face-off by Alexa Padgett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Alexa Padgett lights the lamp with ANOTHER FACEOFF (Wildcatters Hockey #5). NHL wingman Paxton Naese regrets being pressured by his father to break up with his girlfriend Hana Sato. Now three years later, they are reunited, and Paxton wants a second chance. They discover secrets and miscommunications that drove them apart.

Alexa Padgett does a great job with this story. It is skillfully written and thought-provoking. Paxton and Hana are likable characters that deserve another chance. I love that they have known each other since they were in second grade. Hana suffered a horrible injury that causes her to be self-conscious. They have a lot of history. They are both intelligent. I love the NASA aspect of the story. Their families’ involvement in their lives complicates issues for the couple. It is interesting how their lives are interconnected.

ANOTHER FACEOFF is an excellent addition to the Wildcatters Hockey series. I am looking forward to Cruz’s story next. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.
