Review - Mile High by Liz Tomforde

 

 

I recently finished reading Mile High by Liz Tomforde. This is a hockey romance set in Chicago, IL The hero is a cocky playboy with a reputation for being the bad boy of hockey, while the heroine is a curvy flight attendant with body image issues.

This is the first time I've read this author, so I wasn't sure what to expect. The story started off slow for me. I didn't love the cocky badboy who seemed determined to make his flight attendent's job a nightmare every time he was on the plane.

But Stevie gave as good as she got and Zanders began looking forward to their banter. What started out as a way to annoy her turned into a way to get her attention.Their banter became more playful and soon the sexual tension was heating up.

I ended up loving Zanders and Stevie, not wanting their story to end. It's a good thing this is the first book in a series. I'm hoping we get some more glimpses of Zanders and Stevie in book two.

4.5 stars.

Zanders

Chicago hockey isn’t complete without me—everyone’s favorite player to hate. I know my role, and I play it well. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy spending the majority of my game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a new girl on my arm each night.

What I don’t like is the new flight attendant on our team’s private plane. She works for me, not the other way around. But I’ll be sure to remind her of that, and I can guarantee, by the end of the season, she’ll be begging to quit her job.

But every road trip blurs the lines, and I can’t quite figure out if I keep pushing that flight attendant call button in order to push her buttons or if it’s more than that.

Stevie

I’ve been a flight attendant for years. I thought I’d see it all, but when my new job lands me onboard working for the most egotistical and self-righteous diva in the NHL, I start to second guess everything. Including the promise I made to myself of never hooking up with an athlete again…no matter how annoyingly tempting he may be.

Evan Zanders is unfiltered, unapologetic, and too attractive for his own good. He loves his image, but I hate everything about it.

Everything but him.
