(also, if you’re a romance reader loving on those ab covers, be sure to write (mature) next to your linky if your post shows mature content.)
Today’s first line Friday is coming from my current read!!
Love & Hockey
(Fury Series, #1)
By: Monty Jay
First Line:
“Are you sure that you are ready for this?”
NHL’s golden boy, Bishop Maverick, knows all too well how a haunting past can taint your future. It seems his entire life all people have done is leave. So what does a man do when he has so little? He pours everything into the only thing that he has left. Hockey. This sport has brought him a family, hope, something to work for, but what was the one thing he never expected for it to bring him? A green-eyed, wild child with a soul that brings him back home.
Valor Sullivan was raised on the ice by a single father who inspired her love for hockey. With a mouth that would make a sailor blush, and fiery red hair she is a force to be reckoned with on and off the ice. There doesn’t seem to be anything hard work won’t get her. Well, everything but him. Bishop is her Endgame. The only problem? He’s eight years older and one of her father’s closest friends.
Fate blurs the lines of past and present to pull these two together. The only question is…
Were they always meant to be? Or damned from the start?
Love & Hockey is a standalone, age-gap romance. It deals with sensitive material that may be triggering to some.

My Thoughts… So far.
Love & Hockey is Monty Jay’s debut album! I’m currently only a few chapters into this one and my attention is captured. The prologue literally had me setting my kindle to the side and taking a few deep breaths. I can feel a strong sense there will be several trigger warnings within this story. Given that prologue…. I also feel my heart is going to break while reading Love & Hockey. I’m really enjoying this one…. So far.

I’m reading it right now!
…AND….LOVING IT SO MUCH!!!
I’m currently reading Georgana’s Secret by Arlem Hawks (a very cool name, btw). I’m on chapter 12, so I’ll share the first line from there: “Seawater made poor wash water.” I think I’d have to agree! Hope you have an excellent weekend. 🙂❤📚
