Damon Grant is the captain of his hockey team at Chicago Prep Hockey Academy and is ready for a new year. He is happy that his parents supported him "coming out of the closet" and is ready for another championship year, after two previous championships.
Jonah Kingston is 25 and the new coach at Chicago Prep after the last one is fired. He is ready to put his foot down and not get taken advantage of by these rich boys who have a habit of getting whatever they wanted after his own life has taken too many twists and turns lately.
When Jonah witnesses one of the other players going down on Damon in the locker room after practice he is stunned to see how much he enjoyed it but an altercation with Damon afterwards has Jonah ready to kick Damon off the team.
Will Jonah and Damon be able to focus on the hockey game or are the two hell-bent on bringing each other down and will they discover something else in the process?
Wow - this is such a great book from start to finish with a few twists to make you wonder what is going to happen next!
I liked Damon but it was obvious that he was used to getting what he wanted. His relationship with Hall was interesting for sure and I liked how Hall denied what he was. Damon was confident in himself and set himself a goal in regards to Jonah and was going to do whatever it took to get him.
It was obvious that Jonah was escaping from his own past but as the book went on we understood why and stuff just blew my mind. I can't believe the stuff that happened to him and how it really ruined his future and the person responsible just didn't care as long as they got what they wanted. I understood why Jonah had his defenses up after his past but there was something about Damon that just got to him.
The tension at the beginning of the book in regards to Jonah and Damon was through the roof especially with each having their own agenda in regards to the other. There was so much friction between the two that you knew it was going to explode and things began to make sense. I was so mad at Finn for what he said to Damon yet the good thing was what came from it.
The two truly cared so much about each other but you were freaking out who was going to find out and then towards the end everything explodes with so many other factors. I was shocked at Madison and everything she revealed.
The end was great but the author totally has me curious about what is to come!!
4.5 Stars!
