I never meant to say a word, not one single word. But I did. Now because of something I leaked–without even realizing it–I’ve inadvertently broken up one of the Ice Knights’ most legendary bromances. And worse–I’ve kicked hockey star Ian Petrov’s grumpy level to insane levels of grump. And what could make it worse? How about the two of us being trapped together in a remote cabin after a … a remote cabin after a massive blizzard. Neither of us can leave. Just us, the snow, his resentment, and OMG sexual tension so thick it would take a snowplow to break through it.
I’ve got to get out of here before I do something even dumber than I’ve already done and kiss the sexy grouch with his misplaced anger and perfect pecs. That would be the worst, the absolute worst. But… would it be terrible if we gave in? Just a little? It’s not like we’re ever going to have to spend time together again.
Until the next morning when we’re told we have to play chummy for the press until this news cycle blows over. F.M.L.

What a wonderful way to be introduced to a new author!
Loud Mouth by Avery Flynn is a highly readable sports romcom.
We have surly alpha sportsmen, women working in a male dominated field who effectively corall them and unsuspecting women who tame these sometimes broken men. Recipe for success? Absolutely!
Although lighthearted, this novel tackles some serious issues with practical finesse. It is highly readable and is a book which will capture your interest and keep it till the very last page.
This may be my first Avery Flynn but definitely won’t be my last!
Adorable, laugh out loud addition to the Ice Knights series!
The sparks fly when Ian and Shelby are locked away in a remote cabin together (an infamous Lucy setup? maybe…), but what happened in that zip code doesn’t stay in that zip code. Ian and Shelby brought the sparks back with them and their chemistry is so hot it basically melts the ice in the hockey rink.
Even though Shelby didn’t advertently release information about Ian and Alex’s parentage (two men and best friends from the same hockey team), it was leaked nonetheless. The outcome of that information was disastrous and a friendship between Ian and Alex was ruined along with the potential of a season championship. Shelby feels horrible, hence why she’s hiding out at a cabin all alone, or at least she thought she was. That was until Ian shows up at the same secluded cabin.
Ian is angry. He feels like the rug has been pulled out from under his life at the secrets and lies that both his father and Alex, the man whom he called his best friend, have been keeping from him. His own half-brother has known this secret for years and never told him so he’s angry, which is why he’s decided to hide out at a remote cabin and lick his wounds alone. Or at least he thought he was until he is stun gunned by a feisty woman, the very one who outed his family secret.
While Ian and Shelby work out their forgiveness, by ways of their instant chemistry, the team wants Shelby to work her magic on Ian and Alex so they can reconnect their friendship and the team can bring home a championship. Somethings may be easier said than done.
Shelby joins the team for a long away road trip and gets very cozy with Ian and Alex every night at dinner so she’s able to create an exclusive story about the two, allowing them to reconnect, but also allowing Ian and Shelby to inadvertently grow closer making their relationship almost impossible to shy away from.
Could these two really make it work? The hockey player and the media loud mouth? I believe they sound like a match made in Ice Knight heaven!
