I don't really know a great deal about Ice Hockey, but I do enjoy romances that are based around the sport. Hot on the Ice is a second chance romance. Dante (the Fire-man, obviously) had a brief relationship with Lily when they were both younger. He didn't want to get involved in a serious relationship and broke things off. Being fairly young, rather than let her know how he felt, he made it quite obvious that he was seeing other women and broke her heart. Now, when they run into one another again, there's no denying the chemistry between them.
I have to admit, that when it's a second chance romance and they broke up because of cheating, it does tend to put me off. In this case though, they were very young and I'm prepared to let Dante off, (a bit). The relationship between Dante and Lily has a few difficulties to get through, even if we don't count their previous relationship. Even so, they do seem to work together and I liked them being together.
I enjoyed the relationship that Dante has with his team-mates, they are all close and have that joking, almost brotherly love for one another. I did find that the way the author would say that they were telling one another to go fuck themselves, without actually saying it was a bit annoying. Either spell it out or don't bother at all, the whole suggested he do something sexual that was anatomically impossible got a bit much. Once or twice might be ok, if you must, but it was quite often.
Overall, this is an entertaining and enjoyable sports-based romance. I'd certainly be back for more and there's every sign that this is the start of a series with more from these players to come.
I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Color me impressed. Lily was no doormat and she wasn’t about to just give in because the guy she saw before her now still did it for her...physically. She remembered all too well the heartache and pain that Dante was capable of inflicting, so it was difficult for her to trust him at all, much less with her business dreams and heart. But Dante broke through the wall between past and present because he absolutely couldn’t stay away. Until he could. Again. Because Dante was nothing if not self-sacrificing in his attempts to save Lily’s dreams, even if that meant breaking her heart for a second time. And when everything comes out into the open, he’s got a very hard road ahead to get back to anywhere near good with Lily. Luckily, she’s got a big heart and can’t walk away from the only man she could possibly love.

I loved this read and how it dragged emotions out of me. Dante was such a dumb man that I wanted to shake him, but he loved Lily so much that I wanted to comfort him. Lily was so strong, yet vulnerable where it would count the most, and that made me adore her. Add the rest of her girl gang to the book and I can’t wait to see another story from this author. Hopefully, Jessie and Savannah will be up in the near future.

Great book!! I really enjoyed reading this book! It was funny, the characters were relatable it had intrigue, drama, heartache and heartbreak! All and all it was a great read! I highly recommend this one! Thank you Netgalley and the publishers for sharing this book with me!
