About this ebook

One second, I had everything.

The next, it was torn away.

I was at the peak of my career, captain of the Baltimore Breakers, minutes away from winning another Cup. Then one hit had derailed everything.

All I’d ever known was hockey, and I didn’t know where I fit in a world where playing was no longer a possibility. But then I was offered a chance to bring hockey back into my life. A shot at starting over.

The only condition of that second chance was required meetings with the team psychologist, Hazel.

She was exactly the kind of woman I might have once lusted after—beautiful, kind, a body that screamed sex. She made me feel whole, like a man again.

Except, she wasn’t interested in me outside of being a patient.

Well then, I would just have to convince her otherwise.

Ratings and reviews

5 Star review of Boldly (Breakers Hockey #2) by Elise Faber Book two in the latest series from Elise Faber and I could not wait to dive in to Oliver James and Hazel Reid’s story. I was so absorbed in the story that Ms. Faber wove that I read Boldly in almost one go, only putting it down when real life got in my way. Oliver is recovering from an injury that forced him to re-evaluate his life and goals after a cheap shot destroyed his hockey career and almost his life. After a massive infection meant that Oliver lost part of his leg below the knee, he knew he would never play in the NHL again. When the management of the Baltimore Breakers propose he head up the Player Development Department he appreciates that he will once again be able to be involved in the sport that has always been his life. However it comes with strings, he has to talk with the team’s psychologist, Hazel and Oliver knows that she holds his future in her hands. This was an emotional roller coaster of a book about having to look deep into ones soul, of overcoming life changing events and coming to terms with what life deals you. There were moments where I was moved to tears, moments where I laughed out loud and moments where I swooned. I am so glad that Oliver and Hazel were able to move forge a wonderful future together.

Elise Faber does a phenomenal job with BOLDLY (Breakers Hockey #2). Captain of the Baltimore Breakers, Oliver James, has a career-ending injury that takes his leg. He is offered a position coaching on the team provided he meets with team psychologist, Hazel Reid. I love Oliver. He accepts his situation. He is tired of people pitying him. I appreciated Oliver’s love of tech. I am the same way. Oliver understands loss. He is not good at relying on others. He is an amazing individual. Hazel is a noteworthy heroine. She broke off her engagement after finding out her fiancé cheated on her. I sympathized with Hazel’s headaches. I like that she understands her expertise. The two are perfect for each other, making each other whole. Elise Faber does an amazing job with this story. It is heartfelt and inspiring. BOLDLY is the perfect addition to the Breakers Hockey series. I highly recommend this book to people who enjoy stories about people who overcome traumatic experiences and/or sports romance. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

Boldly is book 2 in the Breakers Hockey Series and Oliver James and Hazel Reid’s story is the perfect addition to this series. From the moment I picked this book up i knew there would be no putting down until I had read the final word, I was intrigued and captivated by Oliver and Hazel’s journey. Oliver is recovering from an injury that ended his hockey playing career, he is trying to work out where he goes next so when the management of the Baltimore Breakers proposed he take control of the Player Development Department it seems his future has been decided. This job does have some strings and one of them is meeting with the teams psychologist, Hazel James so how will Oliver react to the woman who has his future in her hands…….. From the moment these two met sparks fly, the attraction is instant and the chemistry is sizzling but will either of them be prepared cross the line and possibly ruin their careers. This book has all the feels, it touched me on so many levels as I joined this emotional roller coaster. I smiled, I cried, I laughed and I sighed but everything I felt was worth it because this is a beautifully written love story that I will certainly be recommending to anyone who will listen. Can’t wait to see who’s story is next from the Baltimore Breakers.
