Synopsis

Will broken hearts replace the wedding they dreamed of?

Ryker’s heart has space for three things—his family, hockey, and Jacob. As their wedding grows closer, it seems that nothing can stand in the way of an idyllic celebration, surrounded by friends and loved ones. But things appear to be changing; Jacob is forging a future that might take him away from Ryker, and Ryker alternates between pride and fear when a new man comes into his fiancé’s life. A hockey season from hell has him doubting his life choices, but worse, he’s driving Jacob into another man’s arms. How has their perfect life suddenly gone so wrong?

Life has certainly thrown many twists and turns in Jacob’s path. Most of the goals he’d set for himself as a teenager had to change, but one has remained constant: finding his heart’s desire and marrying him. That aspiration was reached when Ryker said, “I do”. Planning their wedding was meant to be the best time of their lives, but Jacob unwittingly puts his trust in the wrong man and finds himself in danger. Is their love strong enough to survive the fallout?

Warning for on-page triggers. Happy ever after guaranteed.

Review

Reviewed by ButtonsMom2003

I loved this but it tore me up in places.

Valentine’s Hearts has a wonderful HEA – this pair of authors has never disappointed me there – but I’ll warn you that there are rough times ahead for Ryker and Jacob. I don’t have the right words to say more without being too spoiler-y. A dark and difficult subject was treated respectfully and with care and I would expect nothing less from RJ and V.L.

This is definitely not your typical wedding story and there is no way I could have predicted what the book would be about. My heart hurt so much for what Jacob and Ryker go through. But it is a great story and I think it’s one that needed to be told. I know this review is pretty cryptic but if you are a fan of this series, or any of this duo’s hockey stories, I don’t think you will want to miss this one.
