Search - Face-Off (Encounters)(Harlequin Blaze, No. 597)

Usually I'm irritated by the short story romance because it's just too short! This time the 3 stories flow together because the protagonists are siblings, so it almost felt like reading one book. Good amount of hockey flavor without being dogmatic and steamy scenes make this one a thumbs up from me.

The characters in this book were 2 hockey playing brothers and their attorney sister. An anthology of 3 stories, each one kind of picking up where the other one left off, one sibling the main character in each story.

While the characters themselves were likable, the stories were rushed and lacking. There was plenty of steam in them, but it happened unbelievably fast, and the relationships between each couple felt rushed and kind of unbelievable.

I would have enjoyed this much more as a trilogy- I think that each story had enough to be it's own book, and the stories would have been a lot better.
