Publisher Description
My mom always said you don’t get a second shot at making a first impression. I’ve remembered that my entire career. Especially since I’m one of the few black men who play professional hockey.
I’m calculated and respectful in the way I speak to my coaches, the owners, and the media. I’ve never taken a risk… until her.
I could blame it on the fact that for once I pushed away the pressure of my career for the ocean waves, the sand, and good times with my new teammates. But those are excuses because the minute I saw her at the airport, something lit up inside me and the best week of my life was spent with her in my bed.
After our week in paradise, we said goodbye, exchanged phone numbers and both assumed that unless one of us was flying through the other’s city on the opposite side of the country, our vacation fling was over.
Then one night after practice I see her. She’s here. In my city. Telling me she moved here for a job. If that’s not fate tell me what is.
I’ve never wanted a second shot more than I do this time, but she’s determined to leave what we were on the island we left behind.

Great story and nattation
This is the fifth book in the latest series from Piper Rayne. Second Shot With #76 and was a fantastic addition to Piper Rayne’s latest series. This second chance story ticked all the boxes for me and I was hooked from the first word until the last.
I enjoy second chance stories and this was a wonderful story about Cory and Ande. Being a member of the Florida Fury, Cory is a successful player and a man I fell for hard and fast. A holiday fling with Ande, Cory never expected to see her again once he left their island paradise.
Narrated by new to my narrator Chance Smolders and Vanessa Edwin who were easy to listen to and did a wonderful job bringing the story to life. They certinly did justice to the story that Piper Rayne wove.
However fate has a way of playing with people and when Cory learns she has moved to town for a job opportunity he is convinced it was meant to be. Although tempted Ande is determined that their relationship is in the past. Can Cory convince her to give him a chance? The road they travel was rocky, full of twists and turns and of course interference from his teammates. There were moments where I wanted to shake sense into both of them but it made for an entertaining read.
I loved this story and cannot wait to see what Piper Rayne has in store for this addictive series.
Wonderful story with wonderful narration
AUDIO REVIEW
This is the fifth book in the Hockey Hotties Series and this second chance at love ticked all my boxes and Cory and Ande’s journey is also the perfect addition to this wonderful series.
What is it about hockey players that sends our ovaries into overdrive, well I can tell you this, I fell hard and fast for Florida Fury player Cory and I’m sure you will too…..
After reading this book I was excited to see how Chance Summers and Vanessa Edwin would interpret one of my all time favourite couples, well all I’m going to say is they did a fantastic job bringing Cory and Ande’s wonderful journey to life. They were spot on with all the pushing and pulling, all the banter and more importantly all the emotions.
It was only meant to be a holiday fling, it was never meant to be more than a fling in paradise but fate seems intent on pushing this couple together so when Cory finds ot Ande is in town for a new job, he decides to pursue her. Problem is Ande still believes it was only a fling and that a high profile player would have no room for her so can Cory convince her otherwise …one click and find out.
This talented writing duo never disappoint and once again they have given us a book that will captivate throughout the read and stay with us long after the final words have been read. The characters have chemistry and are easy to relate to , the banter is witty and I’m sure you will find plenty to giggle at but it was the determination and believing in a future from Cory that took this book to another level. I loved everything about this book and I can’t wait for what’s next from the players of the Florida Fury.
