Call It Home by Catherine CloudMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Ryan Harris is devastated, his boyfriend breaks up with him by text, his car runs into a ditch, the media are claiming he was drunk and totalled his car, and now his ice hockey team has traded him to the Connecticut Cardinals. He doesn't know anyone at the Cardinals, whereas at his previous team he had some close friends who knew he was gay.
Louie Hathaway comes from hockey royalty, but he has struggled to stay in the Cardinals team, he feels like a yo-yo bouncing to and from the farm team. He's all work work work, pushing himself to do better, score more goals, out-do his older brother who always manages to go one better, and make his father proud of him, finally. Now the new guy is staying with the team mate Louie normally stays with and he has to stay with another teammate who has a dog.
As the two new guys (even if Louie has been on the team before), Ryan and Louie get thrown together a lot, so it only makes sense for Ryan to suggest Louie moves into the spare room of the house he's just rented. Louie can't make long-term plans when he could be sent down to the farm team at any moment so staying in the amazing house that Ryan has rented seems sensible.
I loved this, but Catherine Cloud why, why, why do you always end your books so abruptly? I swear I literally kept turning the pages back and forth on my Kindle wondering what happened to the ending. Can she not imagine how there can be a HEA?
