Center of Gravity (Ice Tigers #2)Center of Gravity by Isabella Cassazza
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Center of Gravity is the 2nd book in the Ice Tigers Hockey Romance Series by Isabella Cassazza. Each book can be read as a standalone but centre around a hockey team so characters will reoccur. I hadn’t read the first book in this series before reading this one but now that I have read the blurb of the 1st book I NEED to read it ASAP.
One thing I don’t usually mention when writing a review is the cover of a book but as this book has the beautiful Kamil Nizinski on the cover, it’s certainly worth a mention. He’s definitely a good muse to have when picturing Matt.
Matt is the captain of the Ice Tigers hockey team and is focussed on winning the Stanley Cup with his team. Emilia Ravelli is the new GM who just happens to have a bit of history with Matt and her appointment just might make Matt lose some of that focus.
I loved Matt and Emilia’s story. It’s filled with so much emotion. This book really tugs at the heart strings, particularly Matt’s relationship with his family. Emilia also has a difficult family relationship which adds to the stress she is under trying to prove to her family that she is a valued member of the family business.
I really loved the story line of this book. The author reels you in from the very start and doesn’t let you go. This is definitely a page turner. I couldn’t wait to see how Matt and Emilia’s story turned out and now I want to read more of this series.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

After being betrayed, Matt finds himself in Italy. There, he has a one-night stand with a hot Italian woman before heading back to the US where his life is. More importantly…that’s where his hockey team is. As a member of the Ice Tigers, his focus is on winning the next game and winning the cup.

Emilia is sent to Boston to run the Ice Tigers. Her grandfathers expects her to be successful and get the team to the finals. Imagine Isabella’s surprise when her one-night stand from back home is listed as a player on the team. She and Matt need to talk, because their lives are about to be turned upside down. However, Matt wants nothing to do with Emilia or the news she brings to his doorstep.

This book was interesting to read. There is so much going on behind closed doors and behind the scenes that brings depth to characters that otherwise seem shallow on the outside. I enjoyed watching Emilia not only fight to prove herself to her family…but also to herself. And Matt has been burned in the past and does what he feels he has to in order to protect himself. I found their back and forth banter to be entertaining, while I was rooting for to get their acts together along the way. A good addition to the Ice Tigers series that I enjoyed reading.

I love a good sports romance and it’s been a while since I read one so when I came across this book I liked the sound of the synopsis so decided to give it a go. The author is new to me also and I wasn’t disappointed at all. I t had everything that I love in a sports romance, a nice storyline, great characters a bit of angst and more. I really liked Emilia, she tried so hard to get her Grandfathers approval but nothing seemed enough. I did really feel for her at times. I really loved the setting for the story too, I love Italy and I love stories set there, I’m sure sometimes just stories just being set there makes them even more romantic!
Even though this is the second book in the series it can be read as a standalone which I did, I however definitely want to read the first book now! A great read that I highly recommend!

This is my first read by this author, while it’s the second in this series I was able to read it with no problems without having read the first.
What a great story. I love hockey books so this was right up my alley. And the characters had me hooked to every page. I was fully invested in this book and everything around me ceased to exist, sorry kids, until I finished.
I will be going back and reading book one to get this series from the beginning.

I enjoyed this friends to lovers hockey romance story. This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites by her. This is a story that is about one magical night but everything has a consequence even if it is magical. This is Emilia and Matt’s story. They are well developed characters that brought the story to life. They made the story easy to read and really made the story pop for me. They pulled me into their story with ease and kept me engaged to the end. They both seem to be lost, will one of them save the other? Will Matt realize there is more to life than just hockey? Their chemistry is strong and they heat up the pages. I highly recommend this book and this author. You don’t want to miss this one!
