  Steele (Arizona Vengeance, Book #9) Sawyer Bennett Release Date: December 8, 2020   Synopsis: A second chance may be just what James Steele needs   ... I might be one of the older players on the Arizona Vengeance, but I like to think that also makes me one of the wisest. Or at least I used to.   Turns out, I’ve been a bit selfish. I’ve been married to hockey and my team for years, which hasn’t left much time for my actual wife, Ella. Now I’m juggling a separation I never wanted, the pressure of being a single dad to our teenage daughter, and the career I sacrificed it all for.   While my game on the ice might be on fire, the game in my personal life i s clearly lacking, as evidenced by the fact I just saw my wife on a date with another man. If I have any hope of saving the family I love, I need to re - prioritize, and fast. So it’s time for me to get back to fundamentals, just like I did when I learned ho w to play hockey. I’ve never backed down from a challenge, and

This is book #9, in the Arizona Vengeance series.   This book can be read as a standalone novel.  For reader understanding, and to avoid spoilers, I recommend reading this sexy series in order.   Steele wants to win his woman back.  He thought his marriage was over until he sees her our in public..... with another man.  Now he knows what he has to do.   Ella is afraid to be hurt again.  Feeling like your own husband cannot see you when he is in the same room made her feel devastated.  Can they repair the rift, or will they just stay friends?   Steele was so very hot, yet awesomely cool.  I found the story to be real, and at a good pace.  I loved the characters, and their daughter was a hoot!  There was some sizzling scenes, family drama, and even some puppy love.  I recommend this story since it was really good.  I give this a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP!     ***This ARC copy was given in exchange for an honest review only.

Growing up, I was the rough guy from the wrong neighborhood who couldn’t catch a break. Posy was the pampered girl I tried to impress. But all she gave me was a single kiss before I had to skip town. Now I’m back, and the tables are turned. Posy runs a struggling pie shop. I’m the VP of a secretive billion-dollar security company.    Not that I can tell her.   There’s a murderer on the loose in New York, and he seems to spend a lot of time at Posy’s shop. It’s my job to identify him before he can harm a hair on her pretty head. Going undercover as Posy’s new barista wasn’t my idea. I don’t even drink coffee. But now I have to call her “boss,” and do everything the curvy perfectionist asks of me. I’d forgotten how much we infuriate each other, and that she somehow fills me with both irritation and desire in the same breath.   There’s nobody
