Lucky.
The one adjective used to describe my entire hockey career. I prefer to call it hard work, at least I did until my game went to complete crap. I haven’t scored in eight games and the team owner is talking about trading me.
I’ve never believed in superstitions. Never needed one. I suppose I was “lucky” in that way. But now the best way to refer to me is desperate. I’d wear the same socks for an entire year just to be the high-scoring center I used to be.
Imagine my surprise when after spending New Year’s Eve with a woman, I score a hat trick in the next game—that’s three goals in one game for you non-hockey lovers. Now, I have to track her down and bribe her to do it again before every game. Get your mind out of the gutter, I’m not talking about it.
I find her and when I get to know her better, I end up spending more time thinking about her than my game, but she’s made it clear she wants no part of me. She’s going to learn that I didn’t become a professional hockey player without having to fight for what I want.

En sockersöt story.

I had a hard time to determine what this book really was about. The plot just felt very thin. The FMC says she'll never date another athlete, there's some hinting at the past. The MMC screws up but it doesn't seem like it takes all that much for her to forgive him. Not my favorite.

Sorry, I normally like these authors but I found the characters annoying and boring in this book so ended up skipping parts.

The end felt a little rushed.
