"This is hockey romance for hockey fans." --Rachel Reid, author of the Game Changers series A veteran hockey player and a rookie can't get away from each other—or their own desires—in this sexy, heartfelt opposites-attract hockey romance. Olly Järvinen has a long way to go. He’s got a fresh start playing for a new team, but getting his hockey career back on track is going to take more than a change of scenery. He’s got to shut his past out and focus. On the game, not on his rookie roommate and his annoyingly sunny disposition—and annoyingly distracting good looks. All Benji Bryzinski ever wanted was to play in the big leagues, and he’s not going to waste one single second of his rookie season. Yoga, kale smoothies and guided meditation help keep his head in the game. But his roommate keeps knocking him off track. Maybe it’s just that Olly is a grumpy bastard. Or maybe it’s something else, something Benji doesn’t have a name for yet. Olly and Benji spend all their time together—on the ice, in the locker room, in their apartment—and ignoring their unspoken feelings isn’t making them go away. Acting on attraction is one thing, but turning a season’s fling into forever would mean facing the past—and redefining the future. Trade Season Book 1: Season's Change Book 2: Contract Season

At first, I thought I finally got over all of those life chapters while writing. But somewhere inside of me I wasn’t healed from all of that at all. I don’t feel the same anymore. Is It because I finally realized That I’ve been living for others All this time And not for myself..? Was I living for others and felt happy? Did I not live for myself all this time? It feels like a withdrawal symptom. How long will this last? I want to feel again... Do I have to live for myself for that? But no one has ever taught me how to live. How to love me. I learned how to love others. I learned how to live with others. For others. To make them happy, made me happy. I never learned how to live and love myself. Is that why I’m feeling weird? Because I want to make myself happy? Is that so? I don’t feel the same anymore I don’t feel different either So, what is this feeling? Is this even a feeling? I don’t even know anymore. Is it because of the people I have lived for? For someone like me they’d choose not to die for? Have I lost myself by gaining you?

Inspired by the changing seasons, the calendar months, and nature's timeless wonder, these passages can serve as reminders that no matter what difficulties you face, when you plant positive seeds, they will blossom into positive results. Language has always been a powerful catalyst to inspire and motivate, even in the darkest times. A few reassuring words at the right moment can make a tremendous difference in how things turn out.

Seasons change, your life will change, and each year can be better than the last if you take the actions necessary to remain positive and true to your goals.
