Contemporary Romance

Olympic gold medalist skiers Jayla Stone and Rush Remington have been best friends for years. They’ve seen each other at their best and worst and have kept each other’s secrets without fail. Only there’s one secret Rush has kept close to his chest. After months of introspection, Rush realizes he’s been filling his bed but not tending to his heart. He’s changed his womanizing ways, and the only woman who can fill his heart has been right by his side all this time.
Years of intimate conversations and the sharing of hopes and dreams collide when Rush reveals his secret, and one toe-curling kiss changes everything between Rush and Jayla. They’re no match for the passion that kiss ignites, or the pull of true love. But being Rush’s best friend means knowing all about his revolving bedroom door—and Jayla has a secret of her own that could jeopardize her career and her relationship with Rush. Even their love may not be enough to overcome Rush’s past or secure Jayla’s future.

My Thoughts
I enjoyed Rush and Jayla’s story. It’s interesting to read about friendships that take a turn to romance. The friends have to readjust and it’s not always easy. Jayla needs to learn to trust Rush on several levels. Rush needs to learn the balance between love and over-protectedness.
I liked the characters from the beginning and thought they had more depth than the pair in the previous book of this series. Still, I found the story could have had a little more action at times.
An enjoyable read, especially if you like ski stories.
