A little tired of going out on blind dates with men who drive vans with sofas in the back, Jane Alcott is living the Single Girl existence in the big city. She is also leading a double life.

But even apart from the hockey theme I thought the story was quite realistic. The characters are very well developed and very likeable. Especially Lucs relationship with his sister made him so much more "human". I don't think I have ever shown this much reation to a book before. I giggled and laughed out loud so many times, it's not even funny. That was probably partly the case because I could relate so much of the little details to my own hockey experience but none the less it just really touched me and made me feel all tingly inside.
Too bad I found out too late that this was part of a series. I will definitely have to read the other books in this series, too, sometime. I can hardly wait
Also, the tattoo? Totally smokin'

While sports romances are not really my thing, Rachel Gibson's Chinooks books are light and fun and sexy.
Jane is a wonderful heroine full of spirit and sass, and Luc is a real charmer despite his decidedly self-absorbed personality.
The minor conflict revolving around Jane's
In sum, a lovely read for a rainy day. Looking forward to reading more in the series.
