DEBUT After winning gold for the Canadian women’s hockey team, Darcy LaCroix is building a career in sports journalism. For the next winter Olympics, she is offered her first chance at an on-camera gig, but only if she agrees to cohost
Wake Up’s Olympic coverage with her former rival, and secret ex-girlfriend, Natalie Carpenter. Squaring off with Darcy on TV isn’t what Natalie hoped for after being cut from the U.S. women’s hockey team before she could try, for the third time, to secure gold. Darcy broke Natalie’s heart when they were teammates in college and then became her bitter rival as they competed for different countries. But Natalie needs something to keep her from living in her parents’ basement, and it seems like looking goofy trying new winter sports on air with Darcy is it. Darcy’s and Natalie’s competitive spirits and repressed feelings lead to sizzling chemistry on screen, but is it only for show?
VERDICT A charming debut, perfect for readers looking for queer stories in the popular hockey romance trend or those who enjoyed Anita Kelly’s How You Get the Girl.
