Publisher's summary

The ice is a cold mistress. As the league's most eligible goalie, Max Fournier has access to his fair share of willing puck bunnies, but right now he's more interested in bringing home another championship than a one-night stand. A romantic at heart, Max believes in love; he's just not great at relationships. So when he finally meets a nice girl who's not blinded by his celebrity, he's feeling the heat - and the pressure to save her from herself.

Between working two jobs and raising her sister's kids, Julianne Bradley doesn't have time for sports - or men. All she knows about Max is that he's the sexiest customer to ever grace her gas station counter. And he sees past her tired eyes and makes Jules yearn for things she can't have: a glamorous fling, a passionate lover, and the time to enjoy both. Max makes her feel like Cinderella, even though Jules has enough baggage to crush a glass slipper. Luckily, he's no prince - only a fierce competitor determined to win her heart.

Perfect

What did you love best about Max?

Just like the rest of the series this book hit the spot. It's great reading about a non man whore once in a while. Also the heroine was not annoying which is a plus. Can't wait for the next listen.

Great sports romance

I really love this series- the characters are great (fair notice- I did not read or listen to Hawke because of the reviews and how they described Hawke. I may go back to listen but there is mention of Hawke's relationship in this book, which makes me wonder about their HEA.) Anyway, Max- I love Max. Max is sweet, adorable, loyal, honorable, and perfect. And then Jules, strong and sweet but a bit hard headed. :o) but their romance was so well done and I loved the presentation of very real problems that these two characters would suffer, especially because Jules had to become the parent to her sister's three children when her sister passed away.

This was a great book, it was great to see old characters and the book was elevated with the narration. Both Cris and Graham were the narrators from the prior books and they were as good throughout this series. I very much enjoyed their reading.

OH MY MAX

This was a very hot heart warming story. Talk about the strong connection between Max and Jules. I ached for the loss if Jules sister but felt all the love Jules gave to her niece and nephews. Max talk about one heck of a good, strong, loving, and patient man. It was plain to see he loved them all! Did I forget the part about Max and Jules how hot they are together? Oh my!!!! Have to say thanks to Sawyer for the audible version. I especially like being able to continue listening to this brilliant love story while doing other things! Thanks Sawyer such a great job!

predictable

This was a bit dissapointing. The climax was totally predictable and was introduced to the story in a haphazard kind of way. It's like the author was getting to the end of the book and realized there was no climax and pulled the most obvious one imaginable to wrap up the story. Like I said, dissapointing.

A Rags to riches love story

Max saves Jules one night when she's working in a convenience store. Then he proceeds to turn her life and the those of her niece and two nephews' lives upside down.
Sawyer Bennett has turned this hockey series into lessons about struggles of every day people. Jules is raising children as a single parent and working multiple jobs to make ends meet..
She has her share of strife and her pride doesn't allow her to accept hand outs from millionaire hockey players, no matter how hot they are in bed.
Max recognizes all of the good in Jules and can deal with her raising three young children. Most men would be turned off. He also recognizes her truly artistic talent.
Cris Dukeheart does a great job narrating the voice of Jules. I love Graham Halstead's narration of Max. When he does Jules' voice he adds a slight southern accent that's really believable.

Max

OMG I think Max Fournier is my new favorite from the Cold Fury! What an amazing man! Gorgeous, hot, sexy, sweet, generous, compassionate........I could just go on and on. And Jules, I can't say enough about her either. It's not often I fall in love with the heroine as well as the hero, but this woman is amazing! Such a beautiful person inside and out. She is completely selfless and it is about time someone wants to take care of her! Love these two together! Love the dynamic with her "kids" so much! What a great family they all make together. All that and of course the sex was hotter than molten lava too!!! Couldn't ask for more!!

loved this couple

of all the books in this series I have listened to this has been my favorite. Max is such a sweetheart and reminds me so much of my own prince charming, minus all the money.

Oh Max!!!

So far the best in the Cold Fury series… I wanted to slap Jules more than once but in the end she came to her senses and got her Prince.
