Stockholm Diaries, Caroline

Rebecca Hunter. Rebecca Hunter, $3.99 ISBN 978-0-9964556-0-2

An adventurous photographer and a lustful athlete find love despite public scrutiny in Hunter’s Stockholm-set debut contemporary. Caroline Mendoza has vowed to never again abandon her dreams for the sake of a man. She has an open standby ticket to travel the world in search of the next postcard-worthy photo for the travel magazine she works for, which is how she ends up renting an apartment in Stockholm right across the hall from former Red Wings hockey player Niklas Almquist. Niklas has had enough negative publicity to last a lifetime; unfortunately, hockey is his life, and dealing with the shamelessly manipulative press comes with the territory. When these unlikely neighbors meet, sparks fly. Then Niklas gets a contract with a hockey team in Stockholm and Caroline is offered a high-paying assignment in Spain, and she must choose between keeping the promise she made to herself and holding on to the man who’s captured her heart. Hunter doesn’t take much time to build emotional connection before the two leap into bed, but readers will appreciate the development of the spirited central couple. [em](BookLife) [/em]
