Broken Laces is the first book in the Eagles Hockey Series. Chrissy and Rome are next door neighbors and slowly but surely, their connection begins to develop. Her father is the coach of the hockey team he plays for, but that’s not the only complication that runs between them. Will their love outweigh any of their challenges, or will too much attack them at one time? Oh my goodness, this book was absolutely wonderful! I loved the feelings I felt while reading, even when I was crying, because by the end, I just felt like I was swooning! This couple was everything I want in a romance: sweet, full of chemistry, and in total support of one another. Chrissy had so much to overcome, both physically and mentally, but I loved her journey to becoming her own woman, full of strength with love to guide her actions. She was really a wonderful character and I’m so intrigued to see her backstory continue to develop in the next books. Rome was straight swoon-worthy. I adored that he never wanted to keep their relationship a secret and that he was willing to stand up against her dad and even face the consequences of that, just to keep Chrissy by his side. I loved them together. They just clicked and seemed to work. I loved their ups and downs, and there definitely is a lot of drama in this book that isn’t fully resolved. I am definitely looking forward to the next book in the series!
