BXTCHES Gotta Warn: This is the very first book in the Cold Fury Hockey series and I got a bit of a confession to make. I have actually read a couple books in this series and this isn’t one of them, which means I didn’t not go in the proper order. Zack was my first introduction to the Cold Fury hockey team and I followed him up with Ryker (books #3 and #4) and at the time, I thought they were fine to be read on their own. However, I have recently decided to read this entire series from the beginning and now I know that I should’ve started with Alex and I do believe you should as well.
Alex will be told through the POV’s of both Alex and Sutton.
Alex plays hockey for the Carolina Cold Fury and while his skills on the ice are solid, his relationship with the fans, teammates, and those around him need work. He takes pride in being named MVP (most valuable prick) and makes no apologies for the way he treats women. They know the score well before the game is even played. However, the higher ups at the Cold Fury aren’t too happy with the image he is currently portraying. Enter Sutton.
Sutton is a youth drug counselor at a crisis center and though she had a rough start in life (a addict dad), her and her mom came out on the other side with the family they deserved. She has a step dad she adores, a little brother who lights up her life, and a career that she just knows is her life calling. So when the opportunity arises for her to kick start a youth drug awareness program with a local athlete, she is ecstatic.
I’m sure you can see where this is headed and you’d be right. However, getting there isn’t gonna be a walk in the park. While Sutton may have had a rough start at life, she’s always had at least one loving parent. . .her mother. Alex also had a rough childhood. An alcoholic father and a father who couldn’t make it in hockey and decided to put all that rejected energy into turning his son into a star. And while it worked, Alex is definitely a star, he’s playing a game he hates for people who ultimately hate him. It’s gonna be a rough ride down a rocky road before the path smoothes out for these two.
Since Alex kicks off this entire series, introductions get made in this book and no surprise, with this being a hockey romance, you’re gonna meet some of the teammates and those who will make up the subsequent books. The main secondary character you will meet in this book is Garrett. He is the focus of book #2 and becomes a really good friend to Alex during this story. Since this series revolves around a hockey franchise, it really becomes an ensemble series, which gives us the chance to play catch up with previous books as we move on into the series. So, as we meet and fall in love with new characters, we also get the chance to find out what some of our favorites are up to.

One would think with Alex being the prick that everyone labels him with, he would’ve been more of an asshole. Now, he’s definitely rough around the edges, but it doesn’t take him long to really begin to fall for and get sucked in by the genuine kindness that envelops Sutton. And Alex won’t be the only one getting sucked, you will as well.
It’s important to note that you don’t need to have a love or even an understanding of hockey to enjoy this series. There will be no lack of anything by not following hockey, if anything, you may develop a love for it.
Alex is a great kick start to a series. Sutton is able to smooth Alex out in a way he didn’t believe possible. And Alex was able to give Sutton a world she deserved. It’s not gonna be all romance and passion. There will be some trials and tribulations to overcome, but walking to the edge of the unknown in fear, only to see the beauty before you is what living life and falling in love is about. And Alex and Sutton do not disappoint.
