It’s a gamble whether we can truly maintain this, but I suspect both of us are enjoying each other so much that we are refusing to consider this is probably the dumbest idea two people could ever come up with.
“Trust me when I say nothing is better than this right here. Understood?”
male protagonist: “Yeah…remember that night at the museum?”
his team mate: “You banged someone that worked there, right?” he asks, then shakes his head like I’ve lost it. “Didn’t think it was that great, as you’ve hooked up with plenty of ass after her.”
Lucas is getting too close, and his words affect me in two different ways. They make me want so much with him, and they make me want to shut the door firmly on the possibility.
He thinks my time is the most extravagant gift in the world.
"I want everything from you."
"I'm a fucking work in progress, that's for sure."Told in dual POV, Lucas is a passionate and tender read with a complex plot and a lot of heart! The circumstances in which Lucas and Stephanie find themselves requires them to "get real" much faster than they would have in normal circumstances. Stephanie is a damaged soul and my heart hurt for her as she tried to let Lucas in. Lucas was persistent in his quest to earn her trust so that he could give her unconditional love. I applaud Ms. Bennett for exploring the dynamics of overcoming differences in upbringing. Stephanie and Lucas had much to overcome and yet, the way in which they were able to finally come together evoked tears and smiles (at the same time). I found the dynamics between the two to cover all of the emotions on the spectrum. As always, the drama unfolds amidst the love and support of the entire Cold Fury Hockey team.

❝Best. Hookup. Ever.❞
❝For someone who craved to just be noticed for so long and never got it, sex filled a big void for me. And the best thing about casual sex was that I could walk away if I wanted, because I found that I really wasn't prepared for something more than a brief fling. Anything else was too overwhelming.❞
LUCAS was another super-adorable, sexy, funny and moving addition to this great series! Run to your nearest amazon for your own Luc - this one is MINE!!!!!
