Author: Isabella Cassazza
BLURB
Two men, a woman—an unexpected love story.
Tyler Wolfe has it all, or does he? He’s living his dream, playing pro hockey
for the Boston Ice Tigers, and at thirty he’s become one of the NHL’s top
scorers. Everything would be perfect if he didn’t have to hide the most
important thing in his life.
Danny Fisher has had enough. Almost two years of hiding his relationship with
Tyler have taken a toll on him, and when his very own hockey hottie is supposed
to take part in his team’s social media dating show romancing women, Danny
considers leaving Tyler.
Lily Parker is struggling with her career. Training young horses isn’t an easy
job—one where she has recently been lying in the dirt more than being on the
horse. An evening meant to leave her problems behind her leads to a chance
encounter with Danny and Tyler, complicating her life even more.
Can Lily help Danny and Tyler overcome their problems, or will her presence
cause even more trouble in their relationship?
Defying Gravity (Ice Tigers Book 1) can be read as a standalone. HEA
guaranteed.

I’m a huge fan of hockey romance.
Add in the intrigue of a hidden relationship, and then what happens with Lily,
and I was hooked in that blurb! It’s got a happily ever after, and is the
start of the Ice Tigers series, where we can hopefully see more of Tyler’s
teammates in the future.
This book starts off as a M/M
relationship in trouble, so be prepared for that. But also, don’t stop
reading because of that! It’s a cautionary tale of how life can throw some
crazy curveballs, but the right person(s) at the right time can make all the
difference. In the end, there’s a happily ever after!
Hello Handsome Hockey player
Tyler! He’s a guy who seems to have everything going for him and is
living his best life, except he’s hiding a huge part of himself! Poor
Danny is his faithful boyfriend, but is tired of being hidden. Both great guys,
both with good reasons for their feelings. Both are written quite well
and are relatable, understandable men. Then, Lily gets thrown into their lives
in a very interesting way. She’s a great gal with passions and a life
purpose she’s working towards. More than that she’s a kind person who helps
strangers and gets sucked into a very strange situation! Their story arc
was intriguing to see play out, and I liked how they all interacted and worked
together.
Tyler and Danny were secure in their
relationship and sex life. But in a bit of a rut and, or stagnant due to
societal constraints. So when they had to add in Lily to their lives, it
was an explosion of emotions and feelings and everyone seemed to have feelings
for everyone and while things may not have worked out quickly or the right way
the first time, all the scenes were well written and relatable, and made sense
for the book!
I had fun reading this book. I
was invested in the story easily to see how this would all work out, and how
the author would make certain situations and plot twists work. It wasn’t
necessarily a book I couldn’t put down, but I did want to see how it ended.
I liked Defying Gravity. They dealt
with some crappy situations and stereotypes and discriminations. Many
sections and scenarios really made the reader think about their beliefs and how
they’d react or deal. It’ll be interesting to see how future books play
out, and if we get to see this trio again.

someone extraordinary in her.”

our Lily.”
“I’m drawn to boh like a moth is drawn
to the light-even though it feels more like I’m drawn to a burning flame,
doomed to be burned.”

relationship even more complete.”
