I dont have anything against Christian believe, but reading this book lost my interest. And it is a super long book.
I give up. The writing is dragging. The characters take forever to connect. When they do connect,i can not feel their chemistry.

Eden, one of five children, is still searching for her speciality and she hopes keeping hockey's newest hotshot, her brother, Owen, out of trouble isn't it.
Of course, it would help if the team captain wasn't the NHL's last biggest trouble-maker, Jace Jacobson.
As Eden, Jace, and several other characters try to find their place in the world, an unexpected friendship develops between Eden and Jace. As each realizes their role, the relationship between Eded and Jace evolves into one that is more romantic.
Although there were many subplots in the story, all were neatly and well tied up at the end. One important storyline was left open so that more books about the Christiansen family are sure to follow.
A nice romantic read emphasizing the importance of hope.

If you’re looking for a clean sports romance, this is worth reading.
I liked the characters a lot & this has put Susan May Warren on my radar.
I think parts of it were a little too all over the place for me though & the resolution towards the end wasn’t to my taste (too fast).
Also, as another reviewer said below, I had no idea MMC was Christian until he said it. Honestly it seemed like Warren just made sure to put that in there so it could count as a Christian romance.

This was my first book by Susan May Warren, and it was amazing! I loved it so much. It was a quick read. I loved the main characters and how they progressed throughout the book. I will definitely be reading more of her books in the future.

I got this one for free on my kindle and was surprised to find I liked it as much as I did (free Kindle books are often free for a reason... just saying.) I wish I had started with the first one in the series. Some of the characters had already been introduced. I liked how close this family is. I love to see strong families.

I thoroughly enjoy the Christiansen family, so it was fun getting to be inside their world again. I thought the characters were wonderful and well-developed. I love that Warren ties Christian faith with a love story and characters you want to watch win. I found the faith aspect a little overdone and cheesy in most parts, but I still couldn't put it down.
