Baden by Sawyer Bennett



3 Stars

After suffering a horrific injury that threatens to end his career, Baden Oulett is about to learn that sometimes a fresh start is just what the doctor ordered.
I worked my whole life to achieve one goal—play professional hockey. As part of the defending Cup champion Arizona Vengeance, I was living my dream until one split second decision destroyed it all. Instead of lacing up my skates and hitting the ice, I’ve spent my days in rehab and physical therapy just so I could walk again. When a coaching opportunity with the Pittsburgh Titans is presented to me, I find myself with a career I had never considered but which allows me to continue being part of the sport that I love.
While my injuries are physical, the same can’t be said for the woman I rescued. Suffering from wounds that can’t be seen, Sophie Winters has withdrawn from the world in fear and guilt. I didn’t know Sophie before that fateful night and have only met her once since, but I refuse to let her face her demons alone. Determined to be a friend, I support Sophie in the only way I know how… by simply being there.
Through our shared trauma, Sophie and I begin to find peace within one another. As we grow closer, what started as friendship becomes more intimate until our broken pieces become one. But can a love born of anguish endure, or will the pain of our past prove too much to overcome?

This might be because I wasn’t in the mood for this book when I read it because I normally love Bennett’s books but this one was just a meh read for me. I struggled to get through it.

Wylde by Sawyer Bennett

 











3 Star

Wylde is one of the newest member of the Arizona Vengeance team. He thrives on the attention he gets from fans and Puck bunnies. When he stops into a bookstore because of the gorgeous redhead behind the counter he is surprised how not into him Clarke is. He is determined to woo her. When he finds out her story and why she's not interested in the spotlight will he be able to win her over?

I have been reading a lot of hockey books lately and this one just didn’t hit the mark as well as some of the other ones. I liked the writing and a lot of the secondary characters, but Clarke just missed for me. She was a downer about everything and didn't want to do anything that might put her in the spotlight. On the flipside Wylde was the opposite. He was super up and chipper all the time. They just felt too different to me. Will try other books by this author since I did like her style.
