BLURB:
The past few years have been a bit chaotic for Cougars new associate coach, Lancaster Hart. After an amiable divorce he began living his life as the gay man he’d kept closeted for far too long. With the recent move to Cayuga, he’s away from his support system and properly made sweet tea. Despite a roster filled with new friends and associates, he’s spending his nights alone.
As his team gears up to make a run at the Calder Cup, Lancaster discovers that not everything in upstate New York is wine, woodlands, and chilly conservative ideals. At a summer music festival, he first lays eyes on Townsend Harris, folksy/blues singer by night and mayoral office assistant by day. Lancaster is enraptured with the man’s powerful sultry voice. Also, Town just might be the most beautiful man he has seen in all his forty-one years.
The two hit it off at an informal meet and greet after the show, where they spend the night talking and sipping wine. One evening of conversation and an incendiary goodbye kiss leads them into a scorching love affair that might be exactly what Lancaster has been searching for his whole life. Can his team pull off professionally what he’s hoping to do privately as well? Or will capturing their dream evade both the Cougars and Lancaster?
REVIEW:
First of all I need to tell you that I am a huge fan of this series.
That being said you can imagine my expectations for the fifth book. Keeping a series alive, interesting, entertaining is a very difficult task and I should tell you that Vicki just hit this one out of the ballpark once again. And yes, I know it’s a different sport analog but if the shoe fits and all… so anyway One-on-One is a great final addition to the Cayuga Cougars series.
I really enjoyed every minute of it and I am sad to see this series go. One of my all time favorite characters in the whole world is Victor Kalinski. Getting a story of a man who gives as much as he gets with Victor, who is a great match to Victor’s sarcasm and crankiness, this book is an absolute gem from this perspective.
Victor is trying to steal all the scenes but luckily both Town and Coach are unique and fascinating characters and they don’t let Victor get all the spotlight. Coach Hart and Town’s story is an absolute lovely romance with the purest, most amazing love imaginable. We get all the great feels and the blossoming relationship is beautifully portrayed.
My heart got all the warms and fuzzies and I’m sure this book will be a regular reread when I need a good lift me up story. We get to meet all our favorite people from the previous books and getting to know Town, Lancaster and his family proves to be a perfect addition to this wonderful hockey family.
I hope you have as much fun reading this book as I did.
