Some games are hotter off the ice…

Sofia Phillips feels cursed. Her father cheated on her mother, her boyfriend cheated on her―she’s done with dating. A summer work-exchange program in Finland is the perfect escape. But instead of gaining experience as an athletic trainer, she’s cleaning toilets. Awesome. The trip is a disaster, and even better, she meets Kyle Bennett. In the sauna. Naked.

Sexy hockey player Kyle was the star right wing for an NHL team. But after an accident killed his wife and left him injured, Kyle has appreciated the “therapeutic” benefits of booze and puck bunnies. Now in Finland for the summer, he’s coaching in an elite hockey-training camp for teens. When Sofia’s grandmother decides to set her up with a nice Finnish man, Sofia recruits Kyle as her make-believe boyfriend. Neither expects their first kiss to sizzle. And neither expects, while stranded on an island during a storm, to have a scorching night of passion.

But as their charade, and then their attraction, develops into something deeper, the past comes back, threatening to destroy them. They must decide if their feelings for each other are strong enough to survive―or it will be game over.

“These two characters’ storylines wove together flawlessly and made for one hot read that had me wanting to pack my bags for my own Finland adventure.”―Cindi Madsen, USA TODAY bestselling author of ANATOMY OF A PLAYER

I was given a copy of this book by Netgalley for an honest review.

Heat it Up: Off the Ice – Book One is a well-developed blend of characters.  I liked the story line and characters. Sofia goes to Finland for a work exchange program for her field of study as an athletic trainer. She stays with her grandmother for the duration of her stay. Kyle goes to Finland to help a fellow NHL player to coach a youth hockey league.  Kyle’s hockey career is basically over after a car crash killed his wife and left him severely injured. When Sofia asks Kyle to be her fake boyfriend so her Grandmother will quit fixing her up with guys. This is such a great story, and I recommend HEAT IT UP to everyone.  I give HEAT IT UP 5/5 STARS.
