Changed

Can she prove to everyone that she’s changed?

Changed is set within the Gold Hockey series. The romance can stand on its own, but the characters have been present in previous books and their story is richer if you know their whole backstory. Lucas does not trust Mads not to mess up her brother’s life, but if he’s honest with himself, he’s messed up from his own past and can’t help but fall for Mads. A work in progress, Mads is doing her best, but when a chance comes to follow her heart, can she prove to everyone she’s changed and deserves love?

Wow. Just, wow. This book was highly charged from the very beginning! I was taken on a quite wild ride that parts I was expecting and others I was completely surprised, but I loved every moment I spent within these pages! Mads and Lucas are an amazing team, softening each other’s sharp edges, accepting one another’s past, and giving their hearts to the other willingly. I adored this couple. Mads is so strong. She’s been through so much, and has so much guilt, but I absolutely loved watching her come into her own strength and realize that she is worthy. Lucas wasn’t always the best of guys for her, but once he changed his mind and set his heart on her, he never gave up, never let go, and always shower her kindness, love, and support. And I was all for it! Add in the love they shared for a hurting teenager, and it was just about the recipe for a full swoon! The ending threw me off a little, as I was not expecting anything that happened. It’s still a happily ever after, though, for this couple, so I’ll gladly take it! Just not sure what to make of the rest of the reveals at the end of the book! Seriously, though, this was a fantastic read and I loved it!
