Baden (Pittsburgh Titans, Book 1)
Sawyer Bennett
Release Date: January 11, 2022
Synopsis:
After suffering a horrific injury that threatens to end his career, Baden Oulett is about to learn that sometimes a fresh start is just what the doctor ordered. I worked my whole life to achieve one goal—play professional hockey. As part of the defending Cup champion Arizona Vengeance, I was living my dream until one split second decision destroyed it all. Instead of lacing up my skates and hitting the ice, I’ve spent my days in rehab and physical therapy just so I could walk again. When a coaching opportunity with the Pittsburgh Titans is presented to me, I find myself with a career I had never considered but which allows me to continue being part of the sport that I love. While my injuries are physical, the same can’t be said for the woman I rescued. Suffering from wounds that can’t be seen, Sophie Winters has withdrawn from the world in fear and guilt. I didn’t know Sophie before that fateful night and have only met her once since, but I refuse to let her face her demons alone. Determined to be a friend, I support Sophie in the only way I know how… by simply being there. Through our shared trauma, Sophie and I begin to find peace within one another. As we grow closer, what started as friendship becomes more intimate until our broken pieces become one. But can a love born of anguish endure, or will the pain of our past prove too much to overcome?

Review:
This was such a perfect beginning to this series. Baden makes the hike from AZ to PA with ease. He hedges on the decision for only a moment before he knows he must go and see if life can get back to normal for him. He has to decide which is more important: getting back on the ice or sharing his wealth of knowledge with others. Sophie, poor Sophie, I just couldn't relate to her. She is scared out of her whits and isn't even trying to live. I wanted to hug her. I was so happy to see Baden bring her back to life. I enjoyed these two while also wondering who we would meet in the future. Sawyer has set us up for a wonderful series with lots of drama and love.
