BLURB:
Daddies of the League is a college ice hockey shared world, where you’ll find Daddies both on and off the ice. Skate into your newest obsession and grab them all.
JUSTIN
Justin never planned to be a dad. He certainly never planned to be a single dad. After five years of living on the East coast, surrounded by memories of Owen’s mother, Justin decides to pack up their whole life and drive across the country to start fresh. Well, kind of fresh. Phoenix, Arizona is where Owen’s maternal grandparents live and Justin figures it’s about time for them to meet in person. It doesn’t hurt that he’s landed a sweet job with the only college hockey team in the city.
GABE
Gabe’s last year of college starts out unexpectedly, but in the best of ways. He meets a hot single dad and his adorable son, invites himself over to help, and discovers that Justin has a Little side just beneath the surface all in the span of a week. Being Justin’s Daddy comes naturally, but he honestly wasn’t looking for a serious relationship. Not with everything else he is balancing, including maintaining his performance on the ice and keeping up his grades.
When Justin and Gabe realize they’ll be seeing a lot of each other, it’s a bit of work to keep things professional (janitor’s closets aside). Justin escapes into his Little side to cope with the stress of being a single parent, while Gabe struggles with his own demons.
However, when Justin’s parenting skills come into question, and with Gabe uncertain about his future on or off the ice, will it be too much pressure on their relationship?
REVIEW:
This is the third book to be published in the Daddies of the League Series This is a series set around a college ice hockey league with the Daddies involved with different teams.
Justin is a young single dad. He is 27 and his very cute son Owen is 5 years old. Unfortunately, Owen’s Mum died very soon after he was born. They have moved across the country to Pheonix for Justin’s first job which fortunately happens to be near Owen’s grandparents.
Gabe is in his final year of college, studying sports medicine and is on an ice hockey scholarship which he cannot afford to lose. He has a large loving family with nieces and nephews he adores. He knows he is a caretaker by nature and knows he would really like a Litle to take care of. When he sees Justin and Owen in a diner and Owen having a melt down after three days of being in a car, he is unable to resist the desire to help this harried, gorgeous man and his adorable son.
I really enjoy both these authors books and this collaboration has really worked. I can’t tell if they have written chapters individually or together, their styles mesh that perfectly when reading this book. They have written a really good book about the importance family and accepting yourself and help. I loved the fact that the Gabe isn’t perfect and had to deal with his own issues with Justin’s help. Also, the family issue side of this story (I don’t want to give everything away here) also added a bit more body/depth to the story.
Completely Pucked links nicely in with the first book (Lucky Sucker by Joe Santori) as the team (The Penguins) in this book plays a match against the Orcas and the main characters from the first book Luke and Wren are mentioned very briefly. Little touches like that really do make a series feel cohesive. I look forward to reading more books in this series.
