Reese BlackwoodI’m called America’s sweetheart.They say I have the voice of an angel.I almost gave all that up, thanks to a traumatic experience at the start of my career.

Austin Jones
Focused.
Driven.
I’m the man I am today because I never let the idea of settling down disrupt being the best I can during my hockey career.

They say opposites attract. You can’t get more opposite than Country Music’s hottest female singer and a hockey player from Canada. With competing travel schedules, our instant attraction appears to be doomed from the start. Can it really be love? Or is it just a hot ice-melting fling?

“You’re just so perfect.”
“I promise, I’m not perfect.”
“You might not think you’re perfect, but you are. You’re perfect for me.”
This was such a sweet story. These two are just too adorable for words!!
Reese Blackwood, rising country music singer, isn’t looking for a man. After what happened with her first manager, and her former band, she has no trust for the gender. But, there’s something about the tall, muscled, and sweet hockey player that’s making her re-think that philosophy. Their crazy schedules make spending time together nearly impossible, but through the blessings of modern technology they are never out of touch. Texting, FaceTime, and airplanes are the foundation of their relationship. Long distance is hard. Do they have what it takes to make it work?
Austin Jones was never the “settle-down” kind of guy. His schedule just doesn’t allow for the luxury of long term anything. But, the petite country singer might just change all that. Right away, they clicked, spending hours just talking. They hardly have any time to spend actually together, but they talk in one way, shape, or form every day. When they are together, they can’t keep their hands off each other. Are they strong enough to overcome the obstacles of distance and schedules and make this work?
I liked this story. No drama, no big conflicts, no one is ever in any danger – just a nice, sweet story of finding the right person and being strong enough to make it through any obstacles. It’s a nice addition to the series.
Falling in love doesn’t follow any rules and is never easy but sometimes, with just one glance, you know when you have met your soulmate. That is what happened to Reese and Austin; she was a busy country singer and he was a talented hockey player. From the moment they met, their connection was intense and could not be ignored. Reese didn’t have to think twice when Austin asked her out after one of her concerts. He knew immediately that he wanted to spend as much time with her as he could until their busy lives got in the way. They were a hard working couple who were always positive, loved a challenge and never gave up. Over time, even when they were apart, they got to know each other better and their friendship turned into so much more.
Reese was a survivor who filled his life with joy and he couldn’t picture his life without her. He was confident that he could make her happy despite his dedication to his career. Reese had a hard time trusting people and she desperately wanted to believe that Austin was the one for her. He was sweet, thoughtful, and understanding and in her heart, she hoped they would be together forever.
Will their long distance separations cause the light to dim on their bright future?
Samantha Lind has given us another romantic story that gives us hope that love can survive regardless of any obstacles. Reese and Austin had more in common than they even realized and this gave them a strong foundation with which to build a future. Their journey was filled with music, hockey and laughter and I enjoyed reading such a positive and uplifting story.
