Scoring Chance –When a hockey player is in a bar after a game.Just kidding. I’m Rhett Crawford. I’m a player, not a PLAYER. I’m not even on the official Miners roster. Yet. You see, the NHL only allows you to have two goalies. That leaves me in the stands at every home game and twiddling my thumbs when the team is away just biding my time. Do I wish I were on the ice with the guys? Hell yeah, but … were on the ice with the guys? Hell yeah, but in the meantime, I’m going to take it as a chance to learn as much as I can.
Eden Snow is a distraction I wasn’t counting on. One I can’t ignore. The kind with plump juicy lips and doe eyes the color of chocolate. The problem? My team captain told me she’s off-limits.
Eden is forbidden fruit.
The kind you need to sink your teeth into.
Bite after delicious bite.
Eden may not know it yet, but I’m about to tempt her.
I just hope she’ll take a shot on me.

But even with their differences it makes them fit together like the perfect puzzle. All the while they are fighting their demons, the ever growing attraction and having to hide it from their friends, so it causes more problems.

5 stars!
What a beautiful story! Sports themed romances are always a hit. Rhett and Eden both have their own issues they are going through and pasts they are dealing with. Eden is a strong woman although she thinks otherwise and will never bring herself to ask for help. Because of her past is wary to trust or get involved with anyone, until Rhett breaks down all her walls. Rhett is a wonderful man and although he has his own demons, he will not give up on making Eden his. He is very patient with her and loving, so I fell for him right away.
The secondary characters in Eden’s life such as Robin, Adelaide and Cassie, help shape Eden into the woman she is today and help her in opening up and depending more on others. The work they are doing for other kids in the system like Eden and Adelaide is so meaningful and made the story that much more beautiful. I can’t wait to read about the next couple in the series!
Scoring Chance: A Mile High Mariners Novella by Lane Martin is a 4 star read.
When Eden was 12 years old her mother was arrested and sent to prison leaving Eden to go into the foster care system, she finds it hard to trust people so when she’s offered the chance of a lifetime to be able to finish school without having to work 3 jobs to just keep her head above water.
Rhett is the rookie goalie for the mariners, he’s running from a childhood that took his older brother away from him.
When Rhett and Eden first met there was an instant connection but Eden is running can Rhett get her to stay?
I really enjoyed this story.

As soon as I started reading this story I was pulled in and I couldn’t put it down. There are so many wonderful characters in this book but I totally fell in love with Rhett and Eden. These two have been through a lot of heartache growing up but they have become strong independent people. Rhett is a professional hockey player, he is the third string goalie and hoping to learn as much as he can while he waits to be able to play. Eden is going to school and can’t wait to help children who are in a position that she was once in. The chemistry between these two when they meet is off the charts. To find out if these two hit it off or not this is a must read!! I found myself getting caught up in all the feels this story gave me and I can’t wait to read the next book. I highly recommend this book.

I love finding new authors work to read so when I came across Scoring Chance I couldn’t wait to get started and I really enjoyed it! I like novellas, they are usually just long enough to get into and great for when you just want a short read – this was a fantastic novella! The storyline was great, the characters were well developed and I was hooked from beginning to end. I loved Rhett and Eden’s story – both with troubled pasts but I just knew the minute that they met there was something between them! Alongside both Rhett and Eden were some great secondary characters and I really hope we get to see more of them in the series – I shall definitely be keeping my eyes peeled for more from this author!

4 of 5 Stars
I enjoyed this novella by Lane Martin, it’s a contemporary sports romance and is a fairly quick read at only 138 pages. Although it’s a short read it is a full story with no cliffhanger ending and the author has ensured the novella is action packed. The story is based around the team members of the ‘Mile High Miners Hockey team’ and in particular goalie Rhett Crawford, who is left ‘twiddling his thumbs’ when not playing with his team mates on the ice. Rhett admits that he is a ‘player’ and enjoys the attention that being in the Miners gets him from the ladies but this changes when he meets Eden Snow. Unfortunately as the live in nanny to his captains children she is ‘forbidden fruit’, as his captain has made it clear she is off limits to his team members. Eden has also been told there is a ‘no boys in the house’ rule, which is fine by her as after a difficult childhood she is focused on her job and in getting an education. However neither Rhett or Eden can deny or ignore the sizzling chemistry between them from the first time they meet.
I loved the two main characters and how their relationship developed over time, with both their troubled pasts playing a part in keeping them apart. I did find the story a bit confusing in part as there were so many secondary characters, mainly Rhett’s Miners team mates and their partners but the guys were all called different names as they were either referred to by their first name, surname or a nickname and it did make it a bit confusing. A list of characters at the beginning would have been helpful.
It didn’t matter that I’m not particularly a hockey fan as I was hooked from page one based on the characters and their storyline. As a novella I read it in one sitting and I’m hoping Lane Martin is going to continue writing about the Mile High Miners Hockey Team. A great read which I definitely recommend.
This is a lovely heartwarming story about 2 people who overcome their childhoods to find love.
Eden is a college student who needs help with her student fees, so she is sent to the home of Mile High Miners NHL Captain Barrett and his wife Adelaide where in exchange for her fees being paid she becomes their live-in nanny.
Things seem to be working well until Barrett brings home his team mate Rhett Crawford.
Rhett has also had a trouble upbringing but upon meeting Eden he immediately feels a conncection to her. Even though his Captian Barrett has told him Eden is off limits he can’t stop the attraction between them.
Will Eden give in to the temptation’s Rhett is offering or will her childhood force her to push him away.
Scoring Chance: A Mile High Miners Novella by Lane Martin is a sports romance novella. For being a novella, I was highly surprised at how well this story was written in detail. This is the first book I have read by this author and it won’t be my last. It takes you on an emotional rollercoaster that’s for sure between laughing and crying. The characters have so much detail that you will fall in love with them! We follow Rhett Crawford who is a hockey player and Eden Snow who is forbidden fruit according to the captain of the hockey team. That just adds to the temptation that is Eden and Rhett, can they stay away from each other? I can’t wait to read more by this author!
Scoring Chance: A Mile High Miners Novella by Lane Martin is a contemporary sports romance that is entertaining and is a quick read that is easy to get lost in. Lane’s writing is on point and does not fill a story with unnecessary words. This little gem of a story takes us on a journey of hardship and unexpected understanding. It made me laugh and was full of emotions. It is also full of swoon worthy men and loveable women and I loved the pay it forward idea. Eden is forbidden fruit but Rhett is sure of one thing and that is she will be his but to get there he must travel a long and winding road.
This is my first book I have read by Lane Martin and I look forward to reading more about the Mile High Miners Hockey team.
Scoring Chance: A Mile High Miners Novella by Lane Martin was a sweet sporty romance that I really enjoyed reading. It’s not everyday you get a good blend of sports, romance, and forbidden passion. Rhett is trying to make it onto the team while dealing with temptation and a personal problem. Eden has a chance to make her dreams come true without exhausting herself and being on the brink of failing. While a little on the slower side I did enjoy the peak into the mental struggle and dialogue it takes to take a chance. This story to me felt like two people trying to make it out of tough circumstances into something better, while battling their inner demons to be together. Mind you that there are rules in place that would prefer them to be apart. I really enjoyed the story and hope to read more soon!
Scoring Chance: A Mile High Miners Novella by Lane Martin. This is a new to me author. I can not wait to read more!!! This was a fairly short read. I fell head over heels in love with Rhett and his never give up attitude when it came to Eden. They were two people that definitely deserved to be happy…. I am so looking forward to reading the next book and to see Niko fall to his knees over a woman.
I just finished reading this novella and I have to say, it was a wonderful read. Rhett has all the charm and sexiness of a perfect gentleman and isn’t afraid to fight for what he wants. Eden is a sweet and stubborn female who is also a fighter too but taken completely off guard by the sexy, hot hockey player. Their story is sweet and steamy, it made me laugh, fan myself a few times, and brought tears to my eyes. If you want something that will brighten your day and bring about laughter and tears then I recommend you pick up a copy of this book and read it. Its worth it.
Scoring chance: A Mile High Miners Novella by Lane Martin. This book is considered a novella, Lane Martin did an amazing job at telling a full story in a shorter book. Jammed packed full of emotions, story, and romance in this 138 page novella or really a book.
A sports romance story about a hockey player who hasn’t had ice time Rhett Crawford and a emotional unavailable live in nanny for the team Eden Snow.
Eden is emotionally off-limits, and off-limits to Rhett because of her connection to the hockey team. But he won’t be waylaid by those circumstances. He sees something in Eden that he knows is true to his heart and willing to fight the battles in order to get the girl.
This is a quick and easy sports romance read. The author does an amazing job at building these characters and her secondary characters in such a short book (novella). I really enjoyed the emotional feelings you got throughout the story, you could feel the characters compassions and were able to connect with them. It was nice to have a book about the female character having emotional baggage. And the male character wanting to pursue the relationship.
Since Lane Martin is a new author for me, I plan on reading more of her books and looking forward to future books in the Mile High Miners series.
