BLURB:
He was my secret crush. My one-night escape. And the mistake I can’t stop wanting.
Lennox
Some guys flirt for fun. I fall too fast.
Oliver Hayworth was my childhood crush, the golden boy who never looked back.
So when I offered him a ride home for the holidays, I didn’t expect a blizzard. Or the cabin. Or the night that would ruin me for anyone else.
Now we’re back at Westmont U, and he’s acting like it never happened. Like I don’t exist. Like he didn’t whisper my name all night long.
But I see through him. I see the pressure, the fear, and the fire he tries to bury under medals and ambition.
And I want him anyway, even if it breaks me.
Oliver
He wants something real. I don’t have that to give.
Lennox Ellery is every dangerous thing I’ve tried to avoid. He’s warm, open, and impossible to ignore.
I told myself it was a mistake. Just one night. A slip in focus.
But I can’t stop thinking about him. About the way he looked at me like I was more than a swimmer chasing gold.
I’ve spent my whole life sacrificing everything for one dream.
I never planned for him.
And now that he’s in my head, in my bed, and in my heart, I don’t know how to let him go.
Depths of Desire is a hockey romance and the fourth book in The Saints of Westmont U series. It follows an ambitious swimmer and a flirtatious hockey jock in a snowed-in cabin, a one-night-stand neither can forget, and a whole lot of pining. While each book can be read on its own, reading in order will be more fun.
REVIEW:
Lennox Ellery forgot to book a flight home on time, so he rented a car to drive all the way. He wasn’t the only one.
Oliver Hayworth will drive with him. Oliver, dang Lennox had a crush on him since childhood.
He’s on the swim team at Westmont U, and Lennox is on the hockey team.
Oliver has one goal, a gold medal, silver was never enough, he failed. Now he’s drilling himself, only training, nothing more. No distractions.
Until Lennox and he had to crash in a cabin because of a blizzard.
A one-bed cabin, no problem, nope, no problem.
Gosh, what happened next was so good, I was plastered to the pages.
It is hugely passionate, pure from the very beginning, my heart.
It’s only bodily pleasure… yeah forget it! Their hearts, my goodness, it wasn’t just f*cking it was making love, the best of the best. I saw it from the first minute, and it only intensified.
Oliver can’t give more than a flingy thing. But wait for it ha!. The attraction is just too strong.
Lennox is all in, he would already be happy with anything, but he got way more.
I won’t spoil, but there are some bumps, there’s hurt, but they are honest and mature.
Hope you’ll enjoy it like I did!
The author did an amazing job writing all these details; it was incredibly intense and emotional! Just them two!
I loved this story so much, Lennox and Oliver were very lovable guys, their chemistry was off the charts, yes, they were meant for each other, period!
