From the moment I saw Lily Larson—lost in the middle of campus—I knew she was a golden girl. She’s blessed with charm, beauty, and confidence. Yet out of all the guys in this small Swedish town, she chose me. I’m not questioning why because Lily is my sunshine in the dark Nordic night. She awakens a romantic side I didn’t know I possessed.
Everything was perfect until the day she left, when my awkwardness made our break-up especially painful. Now Lily won’t even talk to me. My one slim chance to win her back is a hockey try-out in her hometown in Canada. But to get there I’ll have to polish my rusty goaltending skills and—hardest of all—leave the family that I’ve been holding together for five years.
Even then, there’s a chance that all my sacrifices will mean nothing. But I must try because Lily is worth it.
This global hockey romance is the fifth book in the Vancouver Vice series, but can be enjoyed as a freestanding book.
Melanie Ting writes, watches hockey games, and binges on Nordic noir dramas in beautiful Vancouver, B.C. She visited Sweden but left without meeting any tall Swedes or eating kanelbullar. She now makes up for that lapse by eating cinnamon buns at every opportunity.
