Good Guy by Kate MeaderMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I'm a huge fan of the Chicago Rebels series by Kate and I was so excited to hear that she was revisiting the universe with a new set of stories. I was really looking forward to this book and it did not dissappoint. To start, is lovely to see our beloved "old" Rebels pop up into the story (although I always want more of them) and I really liked the idea of the new generation.
Coming 4-5 years after the last book in the previous series, the Rebels are facing the challenge of rebuilding the team after Remy and Bren's retirement and Vadim's close-to-retirement. With a couple of old faces still there (Cade, Ford and Erik), the team has a couple of rookies joining, inluding former Special Ops Sgt. Engineer Levi Hunt, who dropped his very promising hockey career to go serve and now is trying to get back into the NHL at the ancient age of almost 30.
Assigned to shadow him and write a profile on him is Jordan Cooke, the widow of his best friend and the one person Levi shouldn't be thinking of and can't stop thinking of.
I adored this book to pieces, from the strength and backstory of both main characters, to the side stories of the new rookies' challenges and the place of women in pro-sports that are still male dominant.
It's fun, hot, flirty, angsty and serious in the exact doses and where it needs to be. The pace flows wonderfully and you can't help yourself from being invested in an entire new set of Chicago Rebels to love and root for,
10/10 rec and can't wait for Theo's book but also. why in the freaking name of god hasn't Erik found someone yet?!?!?!?
