Description
Retired superstar Regan Lane is known for being outspoken. She’s never been one to keep her opinions to herself. When she lands a head coaching job in the women’s pro league with the Boston Ice, her brash promise to win the championship in her first year shocks no one. Especially not Tierney McGovern, head coach of the rival New York Lady Libertys.
Single mom Tierney knows what it’s like to live in someone else’s shadow, and she won’t let Regan steal the spotlight. Besides, she knows exactly how Regan operates: when it comes to delivering on her promises, she falls pitifully short. At least she did when she ghosted Tierney after their long-ago amazing week together.
As their teams face each other game after game, it doesn’t take long for them to realize their hockey rivalry isn’t the only thing heating up. And that maybe the real victory is in taking big chances on the ice—and off.

Reading Kelly Farmer's writing is very comforting for me. I enjoy the pace and the characters. Even when they have things to get over, they don't make stupid romance books mistakes. The world that she's created with her Out on the Ice series feels big, and I like visiting the characters.
Something Farmer does here is to show the common ground between two characters who might seem on the surface to be very different. Regan is brash and loud-mouthed. Tierney is very closed in. One might even call her an ice queen in the non-hockey sense. Both have things to work through, but their hearts are in the right place.
The story here is about Regan taking up a coaching position for the Boston Ice, and Tierney continuing to coach the Lady Libertys all the while coparenting her adopted daughter after a divorce. The ladies have to get over their own broken childhoods, and balancing seeing each other. This fits a second chance romance trope because almost 20 years ago in their past, the two ladies had a fling that was memorable to both of them.
This was a good read and recommended for those who like sports romance and two independent leads owning up to their damage and working on it.
