Jake is Queenie’s dad, Ryan’s father-in-law and Ryan’s boss.

They were starting to develop feelings and neither one knew what to do about it because there are very complicated family dynamics here. They started hooking up at Queenie and Ryan’s engagement party but managed to keep it a secret and ultimately broke it off after the wedding. Jake and Hanna had an immediate spark and they tried to ignore it at first but that became impossible as they spent more time together. The goodness continued with an actual epilogue about four years later which I adore, because I want to know what everyone’s doing in the future. Hunting needs to give us a new book for when those two have kids because Bishop as a dad would be hilarious. Shippy is great as always and this book left me wanting more. We see a lot of Ryan and Queenie as newlyweds, learn that Rook and Lainey now have a second child and a baby on the way, and even get some Stevie and Bishop, which I love. It’s almost an extended epilogue for the other characters from this series because we get more Alex than usual and a little bit of everyone. I wasn’t that invested in Jake and Hanna before now but their story changed that but there was a lot more going on here than just Jake and Hanna. This is a great story for so many reasons. And as I’ve already said…it’s complicated.īut when Hanna finds out she’s pregnant. Here’s the problem: we live on opposite ends of the country. It starts with one searing kiss, but quickly ends with us between the sheets-and in the shower, and the hot tub, you get the picture-and turns into months of sneaking around. And I spent months trying to keep a lid on that attraction.

I’ve been drawn to her from the moment I laid eyes on her. The truth is a little more scandalous than that. For the last twenty-plus years, Queenie has been my main priority, but now she’s getting married.Ī beautiful, sexy complication named Hanna. I walked away from a career as a player so I could raise my daughter. I’m Jake Masterson, single dad, and the General Manager of Seattle’s NHL team.
