So good. The best of the series so far. ( )

3.5 stars. Empty Net is a deliciously steamy romance that is sure to delight fans of the Assassins series. Toni Aleo will leave you eagerly awaiting Blue Line, Piper’s book! To read my review in its entirety, please click HERE. ( )

DESCRIPTION: In Toni Aleo's award winning third novel in her hot Assassins series, the chiseled men of this Nashville hockey team can make anything happen when they go all out for the women they want--even turn a one-night stand into a happily ever after.

Audrey Parker is up against the boards. She's stuck in a job she hates and pining for a total jerk. Meanwhile, her sister Fallon is moving out and getting married to hockey star Lucas Brooks. Where is Audrey's Prince Charming? Nothing she does has ever seemed to be good enough for any of the men in her life. Audrey's about to hit rock bottom . . . until she wakes up next to Tate Odder.

The thrill of moving up from the minors to the Nashville Assassins was a welcome distraction. But not even becoming the first rookie goalie to tally three shutouts in the Stanley Cup finals alleviates the pain. With the loss of his parents and sister weighing as heavily on his soul as ever, Tate Odder can't keep pretending he's okay. That's when he meets smart, sexy Audrey. Her gentle warmth and quirky sense of humor make him feel whole for the first time in too long. But to stay that way forever, Tate must find a way to accept his past and learn to live for love. ( )

Read this because the author is a fan of the Nashville Predators. I admit I have never been to a hockey game. Nashville is about an hour from me but I have never took the time.

After reading this I admit I will be looking to get tickets to at least one game.

Loved how the author used hockey, not something I have read before in a romance.

Will be reading additional books by this author.

Thanks for an interesting read Toni. ( )
