RYKER
Cold Fury #4
Sawyer Bennett
Releasing Sept 8th, 2015


The rugged men of the Carolina Cold Fury hockey team are winning hearts once again in another scorching novel from New York Times bestselling author Sawyer Bennett.

The stakes have never been higher for Carolina Cold Fury goalie Ryker Evans. With his contract running out, he’s got a year left to prove he’s still at the top of his game. And since his wife left him, Ryker has been balancing life as a pro-hockey star and a single parent to two daughters. Management is waiting for him to screw up. The fans are ready to pounce. Everybody’s taking dirty shots—except for the fiery redhead whose faith in Ryker gives him a fresh start.

As the league’s only female general manager, Gray Brannon has learned not to mix business with pleasure. And yet even this tough, talented career woman can’t help breaking her own rules as she gives Ryker everything she’s got. She hopes their hot streak will last forever, but with Ryker’s conniving ex plotting to reclaim her man, the pressure is on Gray to step up and save a tender new love before it’s too late.

Gray Brannon takes over as General Manager for the Cold Fury Hockey Team. But with that comes doubt and negativity from players who don't believe that a woman can do the job. Ryker never doubted her, though, and supports her as much as he can. Their friendship quickly turns into a deeper attraction, but because Ryker is basically Gray's employee they can't start a relationship. That's a lot easier said than done, though. 

Ryker is a single father to his two girls and the parts we got with him in father mode made my panties melt. When he was going after Gray and trying to convince her to give their relationship a shot I loved him even more. He was sexy as hell and so tenacious and just all around a complete sweetie. Their relationship was Hot with a capital H, and Gray is one lucky girl.

I really liked that she was so smart but didn't live in her head. She had a genius IQ and two Olympic medals for female hockey, which I thought was pretty damn cool. She didn't do relationships and needed a little pushing to actually take a chance on Ryker, but it didn't take too much convincing. I liked that she wasn't fighting her feelings the whole time and jumped into the relationship with everything she had. 

I did find myself looking for more interactions with Ryker and his girls and wish that there was more father time in the story. His daughters were mentioned a lot but not really in the picture and I just think it would have made Ryker a stronger character if we got to see how much he truly cared for them. There was a little bit of drama but not too much that it ruined the story. Some of the drama didn't seem to get finished, but honestly I didn't care about it so I wasn't looking for it to be finished to complete the story. 


Overall, this is a sweet, sexy story of two people who shouldn't be together but can't stop the attraction that consumes them. Any fan of Sawyer Bennett will love this story and any Hockey romance fans should give this series a try.
