MY REVIEW
Hockey and Romance are melded once again in Catherine Gayle’s
Ghost Dance about Dmitri Nazarenko (Dima) and London Hawke and displays
the newest team, the Tulsa Thunderbirds. I have been loving this new series,
whose guys aren’t the wholesome ones you knew in the Portland Storm series, and
shows her versatility. Dima is a NHL player who can’t get over a poor decision
that happened years ago, while London is the one determined to help set him
free. Having experienced her own problems which left her in a wheelchair she
knows all too well than to wallow in her own grief.
They both are trapped by their own issues stemming from an accident
that happened years ago and its London’s stubborn nature that brings them
together. She is as tenacious as a dog with a bone, refusing to let him or
anyone wallow in their own pity and grief. You truly see the change in him, and
watch the positive strides he makes in his own life to move past his own guilt.
London does her own soul searching, and realizes she can’t demand others to
drink the koolaid if she isn’t willing to take a glass as well. If anything I
would say that I loved the journey these two took together to end up in the
same place. The usual cast of characters enhanced the story, and it was nice to
see the updates from team members we’ve grown to love. The drama itself was
less angsty, having more to do with their relationship than anything else, but
it was a great ride. And that ending will leave you looking around wanting the
next book NOW. It’s not a cliffhanger for the couples, but rather a buildup of
what’s to come. I can’t wait. Another winner and I slurped it up with my sports
romance loving heart.
BUY THE BOOK
