Center of Gravity (An Ice Tigers Hockey Romance Book 2) by Isabella Cassazza was a cute romantic story of two people from different worlds colliding. I loved Emilia from the beginning, she is so relatable and her insecurities were well written. Matt was also an easy character to love, he has been burned before and has his walls a mountain high but things are looking to change. I loved this HEA read and did not want to put it down. I felt like this was the cute read I needed to get through the week.

Who doesn’t love a romance novel involving Hockey! Center of Gravity is a standalone friends-to-lovers sports romance (An Ice Tigers Hockey Romance Book 2) written by the awesome Isabella Cassazza. In this story we meet Matt who just got acquired by the Ice Tigers. Matt is a cynic when it comes to women. He firmly believes that they don’t do anything but disappoint you. Now, we also have Emelia, who tries really hard to make everyone proud. But for some reason it just doesn’t seem to work all the time. Emelia is an Italian heiress who is sent to Boston to run her family’s newly acquired hockey team. But things decided to turn for both Matt and Emelia. This book has a lot of twists and surprises that you don’t see coming. The characters are wonderful and interact well with each other. I loved this book and can’t wait to read the others. This is one of those books that suck you in in the beginning and you cannot put it down. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who loves sports, especially hockey and of course romance.

I have read a couple of books from this author but she keeps on surprising me. I love a good friends to lovers story but this author exceeded all my expectations. This the second book to the Ice Tigers hockey romance. You can read this book as a stand alone but there are previous characters in this story as well. I was so excited when I got this book I stopped everything and started to read it immediately. I could not put this book down until the end. It only took me a full day to devour this amazing story.

Emilia’s life looks perfect but deep down it is far from it. She is the granddaughter to the Ravelli family. Emilia gets out to clear her head and she runs into a very handsome stranger. She ends up going way too far and now her life is going to change. Emilia is sent to Boston to manage The Ice Tigers and she is in complete shock that her handsome stranger is now her employee. She has a huge secret to tell him but will it ruin them both? Will Emilia find the love that she has wanted since she was a little girl or will she end up alone?

When you have failed at everything you have been given, can moving half way around the world to manage a NHL team with no knowledge of sports manager or anything amount hockey this could be a recipe for disaster.

Emma is part of a big conglomerate fashion company, but project she has been put in charge of has basically failed miserably. So she is determined to make this a success, people look at her and see the rich kid from a wealthy family but she has a secret she is not prepared to share with anyone.

Matt is a highly trained athlete who wants to do well for his team, but when an italian bombshell walks into the arena will he be able to focus on his career or will love prevail, but once Emma reveals her secret will he be able to forgive her.

I loved this story, the characters chemistry jumped off the page and the story flowed and ebbed into a beautiful story. I loved Emma’s character although at first I thought that she may of had a spoilt brat complex but the way he insurities and emotion came through and I felt like a friend. I was drawn to Matt also after his disastrous love life and you heart just sinks until he meets the beautiful blonde woman for a night of passion as you feel the chemistry between them and for him to get his happily ever after is brilliant.

This is the first book I have read by this author and although this is classed as the second book in the Ice Tigers you can read this as a stand alone book. I would recommend this book and if you’re looking for a great happily ever after story this is it, great holiday read also.

Center of Gravity by Isabella Cassazza is book two of Ice Tigers Hockey Romance. This book is a friends to lovers sports romance and is also a standalone so it can be read in any order.

Emilia loves under her grandfather’s thumb and while everything looks perfect from the outside, she’s a Ravelli after all, not everything is always as it seems. Now she’s being sent to Boston to manage a hockey team after being less than successful in other areas of the family business. Emilia will need to keep up appearances even though her life is about to change drastically. Matt has never faced betrayal the way he is now. It feels like he’s lost everything. The only thing left for him is the chance to win the cup. Then he meets the new team owner. Will these two be able to find themselves again? Will they lean on each other to make up for all they’ve lost?

This is the first book I’ve read by this author and I was not disappointed. The book flowed so well, the ending came much quicker than I wanted it too. I need to go back and read book one now! These characters are great! I felt for Emilia. You could tell she was trying so hard but nothing really seemed to please her grandfather. Matt felt hopeless but that didn’t keep him from wishing and maybe even dreaming a little. I couldn’t get enough!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Center of Gravity is an excellent stand alone sports romance. Emilia is stereotyped as being the Italian princess, but she has been ruled by her grandfather for most of her adult life. Matt is a focused and determined hockey player with no room for distractions in his life. When Emilia’s grandfather buys Matt’s beloved hockey team and puts her in charge it is quickly apparent that they two of them have some unfinished business together (don’t want to say too much as it may spoil the story line.)
I really enjoyed this book, I liked the dynamic between the two main characters and the fact that they were (mostly) always honest with each other. I also liked the supporting characters, which makes me want to go back and read the first book in the series. Highly recommend to fans of the sports romance genre.

Emilia tries to prove herself worthy of the family name when she is sent to the states to manage a hockey team. Matt strongly distrusts women and doesn’t ever consider seeing Emilia after their one night of passion.
Emilia and Matt prove that a one nightstand can change your life forever and have the best of consequences that can give you an amazing love story. All the while finding themselves and their place in life and where they truly belong.
This is a great read that doesn’t take long to get caught up in and wanting more of the Ice Tigers Franchise.

Center of Gravity: A Standalone Friends-To-Lovers Sport Romance is the second book in the Ice Tigers Hockey series by Isabella Cassazza. This is the first book I have read by Ms. Cassazza,but definitely won’t be the last. This book can be read as a standalone, but the writing was wonderful and I look forward to reading the first book. Matt and Emilia have fantastic chemistry, but need help on relationship and trust issues. Hockey romances are one of my favorite genres, and this book is the best I have read this year. I look forward to reading more from Ms. Cassazza.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Center of Gravity is the 2nd of 3 books in the Ice Tigers Hockey Romance series by Isabella Cassazza. It is the first I have read, but it can be enjoyed as a stand alone novel. I really loved it, and plan to go back and read book 1 next, then the 3rd book. The story is a romance, but it is clean, with only a couple scenes approaching the pg 13 range. The characters were wonderful, even though they both annoyed me at times. It is mostly told from Emilia’s point of view, but Matt had some chapters as well. I like books written so we can understand the feelings of both main characters. Both Matt and Emilia were overly stubborn, but I loved that they put their differences aside and quickly decided to co-parent. Emilia is a strong female lead character, and while Matt is stubborn as can be, he is also a really great guy. There are a lot of supporting characters that I bet will get their own stories, and I look forward to that. I recommend this book and will definitely read more.

I was compelled to read this book because of my love for hockey and romance. Some girls dream of happily ever after, I prefer hat tricks and goalie masks. This is a well-written romance. The storyline is engaging. Isabella Cassazza did a great job with the details of hockey. Characters are well developed and loveable. This is Emilia and Matt’s story. Both of them lost souls looking for someone to find them. When Emilia was sent to Boston to manage the Ice Tigers, can she break away from her controlling Grandfather? She was to have one night of hockey which turned into a magical night. Matt is a struggling hockey player looking for the Cup win. Matt has been burned by people in the past/present. Will he be able to put things aside and start a relationship with the new manager of the Ice Tigers. I highly recommend this book, especially if you are a hockey-romance lover like myself.

Center of Gravity is the second book in Isabella Cassazza’s series Ice Tigers. The writer has said that you can read it as a standalone and I did read it without having read the first book. I love ice hockey series and I felt that I need a sweet ice hockey series and I am always open to new writers so I picked up a copy and I do not regret it all. I actually would say that read the first book of the series’ first as I kept wondering about the guys who were the main in the book one and also appeared in book two!
Center of Gravity is Emilia and Matt’s story and there was something very comforting about the story. I think it was Emilia who had not found her place in her grandfather’s high fashion world, the moments when she thought back on her life as a six year old girl and her finally finding her place and purpose and her … center of gravity that would be there for always and help her weather any storms … and then there was Matt, his successful macho hockey persona and his vulnerable betrayed by woman side and his taking a chance and finding his inner strength.
I actually really fell into this Ice Tigers universe in Boston with its colourful characters so I already downloaded the first of the series and I know I will be heading for the third book after I have finished with that!

I’m not a hockey fan, but I seem to love hockey romance stories and this one did not disappoint me. There was something about Emilia and Matt’s story that drew me in and kept me engaged until the end.

Emilia was not fulfilled, she wasn’t happy in her job and felt like she could do nothing right. Matt had been burned before and was leary of women and relationships, especially relationships. Who knew one fateful night would change everything for both of them.

I really loved both of these characters for very different reasons. Emilia needed a push to discover her inner strength but once she found it she wasn’t going to relinquish it for anyone or anything. Matt had a vulnerable side that dug it’s claws into my heart. He had a lot more inner strength then he realized and once he found it and opened himself up there was no stopping him.

This book was my introduction to Ms.Cassazza, and I look forward to going back to read the first book in the series and keeping up with the Ice Tigers.

A sweet romance

I really enjoyed reading Center of Gravity: An Ice Tigers Hockey Romance by Isabella Cassazza. Living in an area where hockey is a big deal, I was pleasantly surprised by the idea of a hockey romance. This story about Emilia Ravelli, a heiress to a clothing company, really resonated with me. Emilia has tried so hard to show her grandfather that she can be the CEO of the family company but sh seems to have trouble every time to show him she can do it. In the midst of this crisis at work, she finds out she has a problem she needs to keep to herself for a while.

Out of the blue, her grandfather gives her an ultimatum, to move from Rome to Boston, to run a Hockey Team he just bought. The team is the company’s way to get their foot in the door begin selling their luxury clothing line in the United States. Emilia is told this is her last test to show she can make something of herself or she will be disowned.

The story has wonderful characters who have personality, friendships, and the team spirit and guts to work hard to show everyone they have what they need to be successful. I would definitely recommend this book to my friends. Can’t wait to pick up another book by Ms. Cassazza.

This is book 2 in An Ice Tiger Hockey Romance Series, but can be read as a stand alone. This is the first book I’ve read by the author and I’ve got to say I want more. Isabella is talented and brings characters to life.

Emilia, a clothing heiress, finds that her grandfather buys a hockey team. Living in Rome she has to make the move to America. When she runs into the person she was looking for. The quote I choose for Emilia is: “If your daddy doesn’t want us, we’ll make it on our own.”

Matt, a hockey player, does something he doesn’t regret in Italy. When the person shows up he’s shocked. Matt doesn’t want a relationship or does he? The quote I choose for Matt is: “The babies are all over the internet?”

This book had me reading the book and not wanting to put it down. This was a phenomenal read and I really want more. Matt and Emilia are by far the cutest!

This is a love story that is mixed in the worlds of ice hockey and fashion. The characters are so easy to like that you feel yourself going through the journey and the ups and downs with them.

Matt is a ice hockey player who has his eye on winning the Cup this year. Nothing and no one is going to distract him or get in his way. After a betrayal that hurt him badly he was even more determined to just focus on his game.

Emilia is part of the Ravelli family. Their name in Italian fashion is the best and because of this she has been forced to work in the family business. With a grandfather she cannot impress after her latest failing she is sent to take over as the general manager of a ice hockey team in America to get the Ravelli name over there. So she goes into the unknown, carrying secrets that could damaged both her career and also Matts hopes of reaching the cup.

Center of Gravity is the first book in the Ice Tigers series, and my first read by Isabella Cassazza. Even though this is the second book in the series, it can be read as a standalone. But, having said that this story has intrigued me enough to want to go back and read the first book too, before continuing the series.
This is a sweet contemporary sports romance about finding love unexpectedly- with a couple of surprises thrown in to keep things interesting. The characters were well developed and endearing- making for a realistic and believable read that you won’t want to put down.
Emilia Ravelli has lived in her grandfather’s shadow for so many years trying to live up to his expectations and earn his respect. But no matter what she does, how much she sacrifices, nothing she does seems to please him. She feels like a failure. Keeping up appearances and shouldering all the expectation and responsibility is not only exhausting, but also a little lonely. So, when her latest project fails to live up to her grandfather’s exacting standards, again, Emilia is sent halfway across the world knowing that this new assignment will be her last chance to prove herself. She has a lot riding on its success. One small problem- the assignment means taking over the management of the Boston Ice Tigers hockey team, with no experience in sports management and no clue about hockey, Emilia really doesn’t like her chances of success- especially with the secret she’s carrying.
Matt Walker has thrown himself into his hockey career, trying desperately to leave behind all his personal dramas. He is focused on winning and definitely has no time for distractions. So, what happens when the new team manager arrives and turns his life upside down?
If you love sports romance, or romantic stories in general- then you really won’t want to miss grabbing a copy of this book to read, to uncover the secret and discover all the other captivating details for yourself.

Thank you, Isabella Cassazza!

Center of Gravity by Isabella Cassazza I five-star read that is smooth as ice. This is number two in the Ice Tigers Romance series but they can be read as stand-alone, I haven’t read number one and didn’t feel like I missed anything, that being said I will pop back and read number one as I loved this one and am hoping the rest of the series will be just as good. This has great pace and is a fantastic slow burn that will keep you on tenterhooks, the chemistry builds and builds to explosive proportions. The whole back and forth and the misconceptions will keep you hooked and have your heart in your throat one minute and your stomach the next. This is a great story and one I hope many will pick up.

This is my first time reading something by Isabella Cassazza and I am so going back for more after I finish this review. This book was a perfect read for a rainy day. It has the slow burn romance with a sports theme and hot men and fun fashion to boot. Throw in babies and I pretty much am in heaven.

In Center of Gravity we find Emilia struggling to please and make her grandfather proud. Something that is even more crucial given his financial and social status. Things seem to take a turn for the worse when Emilia finds herself pregnant and being sent to America to manage the hockey team that her grandfather just met. She is hoping this might just be the start over moment she needed but when she gets there she discovers that the one night of fun that left her pregnant is actually a player on the team! The build up to the finale of the book was so perfect and written with a flow that had me engrossed to find out what would happen between these two. I can’t say enough good things about this read!

Love always prevails as they attempt to help one another heal not only from life’s circumstances for them but this couple manages to overcome it to not only become better people but a better couple as well.
What’s not only entertaining but also inspiring is how well it’s written but the wonderful characters are the way they come together for one another almost at the perfect time in their lives. This is a happily-ever-after love story that’s easy to read and a great page turner.

I absolutely love this story! It is filled with wishes, lost hope and amazing characters. This really pulled me in from the beginning and I could arely put it down. Each page I flipped drew me more into the lives of these two. Matt, who feels relationships with women are a terrible idea since they only let you down. I am thrilled we got chapters with his thoughts and feelings otherwise I would have labeled him a emotional jerk. Then there is Emilia who feels like everything in her life she fails at. She tries very hard to do the right thing only to let others and herself down. She wants people to love and recognize her for herself not her famous name. These two have a one night stand expecting to never see each other again but the universe has other plans for them.

This story brought me chills of delight as well as goosebumps from the desperation. I enjoyed and *felt* Each characters as they worked their way through this tricky development. Secondary characters are wonderful and full. This makes me want to delve more into this hockey series.

This is my first book by this author. I am impressed with the flow and naturalness of the story and characters. I recommend this story for not just lovers of hockey themes but those who want a real story that goes along with it.

I’m so glad that I picked up this read! This is my first read from this author and won’t be my last! While hockey isn’t a go-to sport I watch or even know about, 1 I thought I might learn about somethings, and 2 it’s a romance read and being a go-to favourite genre of mine I jumped at the chance. Being the second book in a series I thought I might lose the flow of the story and not know the characters but I had no problem connecting with the story or the characters. This read flowed brilliantly from start to finish and had me hooked from the start. I absolutely loved the characters I connected with them immediately and couldn’t wait to see these characters journey through the read. I can’t wait to read more from this author and see where she takes the rest of this series, but until then I’m going to go back and read Book 1 and dive into this authors world again!
