About the book

Tate Ward is the best coach in professional hockey, a hot single dad, one of the best players of all time, and my new boss who likes everyone but me.

The players will do anything for him, the media is obsessed, and the fans still wear his jersey. Everyone's in love with handsome, authoritative Coach Tate Ward. Everyone except me, and the feeling's mutual.

To save the Vancouver Storm from being sold, though, we need to work together and win the Stanley Cup, and I can't help but push his buttons to get under his skin.

He moves me into his guest house and makes me sleep in his bed.

He encourages me with the team and tells me I belong.

He's adorable with his daughter and makes me long for things I shouldn't.

Beneath his controlled exterior, Tate is protective, playful, and funny. He puts everyone before himself, but when I encourage him to be selfish, I learn that Tate wants...

Me.

The Wild Card is a pro hockey single dad romance. It is the fifth and final book in the Vancouver Storm series but can be read as a standalone.

    Vancouver Storm-series 5 / 5 (Jordan and Tate)

    What a final 😍 I loved everything about this story and I'm really sad that the series is complete now. Jordan and Tate (or Coach Ward) had their story coming for a while now and it didn't disappoint. They don't like each other at all but have to find a way to save the Vancouver Storm - together. On their way they disvover that they misjudged each other and that they actually have many things in common. #colleaugestolovers #loveatworkplace #singledad #agegap

    Ein richtig süßes Buch, das Spaß gemacht hat zu lesen. Besonders cool fand ich, dass diesmal nicht der Spieler im Rampenlicht steht, sondern der Coach – auch die verdienen schließlich mal ihre große Love Story. Das Thema Co-Parenting wurde überraschend gut und angenehm umgesetzt, ohne unnötiges Drama. Stellenweise hat sich die Geschichte zwar ein bisschen gezogen, aber insgesamt ließ sie sich sehr flüssig lesen. Kurz gesagt: charmant, unterhaltsam und definitiv eine nette Auszeit für zwischendurch.

    Ich liebe Tate!!!

    Was ich mit am schönsten finde, ist das in diesem Buch eine gute Co-parenting Beziehung gezeigt wird. Oft ist das leider in Büchern anders. Ich liebe auch wie Tate, Jordan hilft ohne sie dabei klein zu machen. Er zeigt ihr den richtigen Weg und beschützt sie dabei. Ohne sie einzuschränken oder Ähnliches. Und Jordan ist einfach wunderbar! Wie sie sich nichts gefallen lässt und sich so weiter entwickelt! Es ist sehr schade das wir Vancouver Storm jetzt verlassen müssen!
