Rachel Gibson
In the next Chinooks Hockey series by New York Times bestseller Rachel Gibson, it won’t be business as usual with wild-child Faith Duffy in charge.Faith Duffy had a very good life as the wife of a very rich, very old man. So you’d think she’d have an ever better life as a very rich widow. But her so-called friends now want nothing to do with her and she’s about to fall back into the world she hated—the world of nobodies. And the icing on top? Apparently she’s now the proud owner of a hockey team. But Faith is a fighter and if it’s hockey they want, it’s hockey she’ll give them.What does Faith know about hockey? That’s the question on everyone’s minds, especially that of Ty Savage, team captain. All he wants is his championship, and there’s no way he’s going to let Faith screw that up. Between juggling the line-up and fighting off their attraction, one thing’s for certain: this is going to be a season to remember.

"This may be my favorite so far. I'm going to admit, I had the same view of Virgil's wife that everyone else in the book did. I didn't have a high opinion of her and dismissed her in the role of classy, strong woman. I have made a mistake. She is stronger than I had ever dreamed she could be.<br/><br/>What I love about Rachel Gibson is that she doesn't take the role of heroine and give it to some bimbo who is dumber than a box of rocks. She takes misunderstood characters, gives them a unique history and gives them a time to shine. Not all of them are self assured, able to take care of themselves, but they adapt and they learn. I really have to had it to Rachel for writing complex and believable heroines that any girl can look up to.<br/><br/>Okay, that said, I was rooting for Faith this entire novel. I was more focused on her that I put the romance second in the list of things to hope for. Faith doesn't have it easy after her husband passes away. She encounters hurdle after hurdle and still manages to keep her head held high. If it were me, I would have given up long before Faith.<br/><br/>While this is a very read worthy series, I definitely recommend this book above the rest so far. Incredible story all around."
