Stick Side Book 4: Risking the Shot by Amy Aislin

Stick Side Book 4

Time for distractions? Hardly.

A chance at making the playoffs? It’s a dream for NHL forward Taylor Cunningham that just might come true. If he can keep his eyes on the ball—ahem, puck. And study for midterms. Dakota Cotton, eleven years his senior, isn’t just a distraction, though—he’s everything Tay’s ever wanted.

Dakota has no interest in introducing someone who might not stick around to his four-year-old son. Been there, done that, with the divorce to prove it. But there’s something about Tay that hits all of the right buttons and has him wanting to take a chance.

As things heat up between them, and the pressure to succeed hits an all-time high, will they risk a shot at happiness or choke?

My Review: 4/5 Stars

Taylor has a lot on his plate. Not only is he a NHL player but he is also going to college to earn his degree. And when the chance arrives to go out with his longtime crush Dakota? Well, he is well worth the addition to his busy schedule. Taylor never imagined falling for a guy eleven years older than him and who has a four year old son, but the way they click with one another? Taylor won't give up either of them. Not if he can help it. Dakota has juggle the life of a single parent for a long while now. He never really gives himself a chance to date, but there is something about Taylor that he can't let go of. For once, he wants to take a chance. He wants to be a little selfish and be with someone who wants just as badly to be with him too. They both may have a lot going on in their lives, but could this be a risk worth taking? Dakota and Taylor were a sweet couple. They fit so well together. Especially when there is a young child in the mix. They are a little family that you can't help but root for. Another great story in this series, and I'm looking forward to the next one!
