Abigail grew up in a small town. She fell in love with the
hockey star, and followed him when he became a NHL star.
Abigail always felt that she never really fit in with the
hockey wives. It seemed like everyone else knew that
her husband was cheating on her. The light bulb finally
went off in her head when she found him in a hotel room
with two women.
Abigail put on her big girl panties and moved her
daughter Dani back to her home town of Glenwood Falls.
While Dani is not at all that happy about this, Abigail feels
this is best for both of them. Abby knows that she
needs to find a job. While never having to work, she
does have a teaching degree. Little did she know that
when she applies for a job at the local school that the
hockey coach would be Jackson.
Jackson was her husband's best friend in high school.
Jackson always had the hots for Abby, but because of his
friendship with Dean, he never made a move. Abby always
thought that Jackson didn't like her, because she took
Dean away from him. Now Dani has made it on to the school's
hockey team and Abby will have to see Jackson every day.
Jackson had always blamed Abby for the divorce from Dean.
Jackson never believed the gossip. Everything is true.
Jackson and Abby try being friends, but of course, one
thing leads to another. Maybe this time it will work
out for the two of them.
This is a new series from Jennifer Snow. If the rest of
the series is like MAYBE THIS TIME, I wouldn't be able to
put it
down. Snow does have some romance in this book, but the best
part is the way that she showed how someone
can turn their whole thinking about a person around. I
also liked the way that she shows how a mother would do
anything for her child. While Dean isn't the greatest
father in the world, in his own way he does love his
daughter. It's just that hockey and partying is a little
more important to him.
I can't wait to read the next book in this series. This
one is about Ben, Jackson's brother who is also a hockey
player. After that is the story of Becky, Jackson's
sister. I always wish that a series would come out all
at once so that I could read one after the other. Great
book and story line. On a cold night, pick MAYBE THIS TIME up,
wrap up, and enjoy.
Starting over means a second chance . . .
Abigail Jansen is done with hockey . . . and hockey players.
After leaving her two-timing NHL-star husband, Abby decides
to start over in her hometown of Glenwood Falls, Colorado.
There she doesn't have to deal with people gossiping behind
her back or hear the word "hockey"---until her daughter
tries out for the junior hockey team. Now Abby has to face
her fears . . . and coach Jackson Westmore. He's tall, dark,
handsome---and happens to hate her.
All through high school, talented hockey player Jackson
Westmore had a crush on Abby, but he would never make a move
on his best friend's girl. He gave her the cold shoulder out
of self-preservation and worked out his frustrations on the
ice. So when Abby returns, newly divorced and still sexy as
hell, Jackson knows he's in trouble. Now even the best
defensive skills might not keep him from losing his heart . . .
