Through the Perilous Fight

Brooke and Jackson's story is wonderful. There is so much going on with the tournament and the historic backdrop but that doesn't overshadow the personal challenges, choices and experiences. I enjoyed the different quirks that they each have and the way that they face things. Great read!

I enjoyed this clean hockey romance about Brooke and Jackson falling in love as she is the chef for his hockey tournament.

This was the first book I have read by Elana Johnson and I look forward to reading more of her books. This book had two of my favorite things: Hockey and Food! How can you not love a book with those two things being in it. I will warn you though make sure you have eaten before reading this book because it will make you hungry. I've been craving mac & cheese ever since. LOL This book will have you laughing, swooning, smiling and will leave you with a fantastic ending!

I loved getting to know Jackson & Brooke. These two will make sure you are entertained throughout the entire book. Brooke is a chef at the Four Seasons Resort where the teams are staying and when she meets Jackson it's definitely not love at first sight. These two have some great banter and had me laughing so many times. I also love the pranks with these hockey players. They always keep us on our toes. I don't want to give anything away because I want everyone to dive in and enjoy this book without getting too much details.

This book will have you cheering for more and I can't wait to read more in this series. Elana was a perfect edition to this series and I highly recommend this book.

Thank you Elana Johnson for allowing me to read this ARC for my honest opinion.

I love the premise for this series and the way the characters meet and connect in believable ways. Brooke and Jackson are so perfect for each other, especially as Jackson seems to get Brooke so well and is willing to let her process and figure things out. I love their pet names for each other. The pranks are fun, I’m looking forward to figuring out who’s behind them. There’s the perfect amount of real hockey and the reality of a chef’s life in a busy kitchen. Then there’s the dad is a coach for the other team -boom! Can’t wait to meet the rest of the players! Super sweet and clean.

It's official! This is my favorite book by Elana Johnson! I loved this one so much! I loved the dynamics between Brooke and Jackson! They are opposites in their personalities and yet work so perfectly together. It takes a little bit of time to get Brooke's walls to come down. But rightly so, after her past experiences and Jackson kind of has a few connections to what caused her to be burned before. So it's definitely not going to be easy going for Jackson. But I loved watching him be himself and Brooke seeing that he was a good man and was worth trusting and letting past her defenses!

I've read early copies of a few of the books in this series. And these hockey players are having fun playing pranks on each other. Or more specifically a few players are behind the major pranks. And one of those pranks is what causes our two main characters to meet and have some friction between them. Hahaha! It was pretty funny watching it come about and play out! I was laughing out loud over it. And laughing out loud over several other moments throughout the book. I love the banter between these two characters. Any of the books I've read by this author have me feeling that way with her characters!

And the chemistry between Brooke and Jackson will have you grinning very happily! They're just the cutest! I for one definitely think that only three weeks together is way too short of a time for these two. They need to figure out life in being able to be together forever! Just sayin'!

Content: Clean. Some sweet kisses and nothing further.

I received a copy from the author. All thoughts and opinions in the review are my own.
