Weston

My world was turned upside down the day Ben Whitmer died. Best friends since junior hockey, Ben was like a brother to me. My voice of reason and a grounding force on and off the ice. But as heartbroken as I am, I don’t have the luxury of grieving his loss.

Not only do I have to hold our team together, I was named guardian of the two young children Ben and his wife left behind. Well, not just me—me and his wife’s best friend, Hadley. We’ve been left with the impossible task of deciding which of us will raise the kids, but there’s no way I’m letting that uptight ball buster have them.

Lines are drawn, but they begin to blur as I find out there’s more to Hadley than I thought. A lot more.

Hadley

I can’t take the place of my beautiful best friend in her children’s lives. But I love them so fiercely that I’ll do whatever it takes to raise them the way their parents wanted.

Wes Kirby is an obnoxious womanizer, and I won’t let him take Ben and Lauren’s children from me. Deciding to temporarily live together in our friends’ home, we attempt to provide the kids stability while we figure out which of us is better suited to raising them.

As we learn parenthood together, my enemy Wes slowly becomes something different. Something more. And I’m left wondering not only if I’m enough for the kids, but if Wes and I are enough to last.

A brand new hockey romance standalone.




AVAILABLE ON ALL PLATFORMS.




MY REVIEW.

5 Stars from Renee!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This'll Tug at the Ole Heartstrings!!

Wow, what a gut-wrenching, emotional, yet with the right amount of humor story Brenda Rothert and Kat Mizera give thier readers. From the blurb you pretty much know what to expect from this book, however it's all in the details.

Wes and Hadley are the perfect opposites attract couple, she is the gal that takes no crap from a man, even if he's a hot hockey player and he's the hot hockey player full of crap. Their best friends up and get married, so no matter how hard they try to stay away from each other, with all of the family events, they are thrown together. Plus, they are now godparents to thier best friends kids, so...

This was the best journey, watching Hadley and Wes transform page after page after a devastating tragedy. They are insta-parents and of course want nothing but the best for the kids, however finding the balance between themselves, work, grandparents and everyday life was quite the chore. Not easy, but something they were determined to do, obstacles or not.

The book is well written, sad, funny and even sexy at times. This was a new to me storyline and the authors did a fantastic job at brining it to life and not in a ridiculous way. There were struggles, the road was not smooth for Wes and Hadley and that made for a smidge of angst which was perfect. Hard Fall is first in the series and since we've met most of the team in this book, I'll definitely be back for the next-these guys have some stories to tell!

ABOUT KAT.

USA Today Bestselling and award-winning author KAT MIZERA is a South Florida native. Born in Miami Beach with a healthy dose of wanderlust, she's called Los Angeles, Long Island, upstate New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Atlanta home. She's never been able to pick which locale is her favorite, but if pressed, she'd probably choose the west coast.
A typical PTA mom with a wonderful and supportive husband (Kevin) and two amazing boys (Nick and Max), Kat can usually be found scrapbooking or indulging in her second love (after writing) - traveling. Greece is one of her favorite places in the world. She loves that Athens is a big city with a small-town feel. The food, beaches and culture keep her going back as often as possible.

Kat's been a working freelance writer for nearly 30 years. She sold her first article--a review of a rock concert--for $10 in 1985. Since then she's been an entertainment journalist, waitress, bartender, legal assistant, food critic, magazine editor, substitute teacher, and sports writer. She also spent some time working at A & M Records in Los Angeles.

As you can guess from her Las Vegas Sidewinders series, Kat loves hockey and occasionally writes articles about her favorite team, the Florida Panthers. The rest of the time, she writes novels: sexy, romantic fiction that she hopes makes you as happy as it makes her. There's something enticing about hockey players and romance...
