Synopsis

It’s been a rough couple of years for Marek Hafer, roaming hockey protagonist and pugilistic expert. Ending up in Berger Lake, Pennsylvania, on a financially unstable minor league team might just be the ending his wretched career deserves. On the other side of thirty, Marek knows his time on skates is dwindling. His goal now is to spend a few quiet years playing for the Berger Lake Badgers, knock a few helmets together as needed, and then call it quits before his salty personality gets him booted out of hockey permanently.

After a bloody encounter his first night on the ice, the Badgers coach suggests that Marek find a way to lower his violent tendencies before he’s sent packing yet again. That decree leads Marek to knock on the door of his next-door neighbor, Shey Pierson, the owner of Sun Touch Yoga Studio. Shey ticks every box Marek has with his soft blue eyes, flowing golden hair, and long limber legs. The only problem is that Shey is yin to Marek’s yang.

Can a man famed for throwing punches find serenity in the arms of a man known for his tranquil ways?

A wonderful story about love and redemption.

I read Touch of Yellow Sun while I was on a cruise and while reading it, I didn’t think about the cruise at all; I didn’t want to put this one down.

While on one hand Marek Hafer might be considered a bully, I prefer to think of him as being shaped by his life events and the game of hockey. He is genuinely remorseful for acts of violence he’s committed but the game seems to want to keep him being a bully.

I just loved Shey Pierson, he’s the perfect contrast to Marek and a great example of opposites attracting each other. He doesn’t like the fact that Marek’s life centers around such a violent game but he learns to cope with that. At the same time, he helps Marek become more aware of what he’s doing and to think before resorting to violence.

I shed many tears while reading this story and by the time I got to the last chapter I was a wreck, but in a good way. The epilogue, with a look at where Marek and Shey are 1 year later, was perfect.
