Van by Sawyer Bennett
(Cold Fury, Book #9)
Release Date: November 28, 2017
As one of the league’s toughest enforcers, Van Turner is ruthless on the ice. He plays hard because it’s the only way to channel the rage boiling inside, and a reputation as an A-hole is better than everyone knowing the truth. Van has spent his entire life running from a secret that’s kept him from getting involved in relationships—or accepting lucrative deals with East Coast teams. Then the Carolina Cold Fury makes him an offer he can’t refuse . . . and Van meets a woman he can’t resist.
Simone Fournier is the stubborn one in her family—and that’s saying something, considering her brothers are two of the Cold Fury’s biggest stars. Simone gets what she wants, and what she wants is Van. Still, there’s a part of him Simone can’t reach, no matter how hard she tries. In private, he’s all fire and passion. In public, he freezes her out. Van may want to push her away, but Simone won’t let him go that easily. Because this time, she’s playing for keeps.
Sawyer Bennett’s New York Times bestselling Carolina Cold Fury series can be read together or separately.

Van plays on the Cold Fury Hockey team and is known for being tough and not much for relationship. His past secrets are whats keeping him from anything serious like relationships. Then it comes his teammate / roommates sister Simone who is very bull headed and knows what she wants and her eyes are set on Van.
I loved seeing that passion between the two. I loved how different author took it when it came to Van's backstory. I mean I figured it was going to turn out generic like most stories which I realize now I can say because I don't want to spoil the book and narrow it down of you. What I can say was that it was unexpected, sad and I liked how different it made his character. Seeing how it impacted Van as a character and how it made a difference in his life. Then there is Simone who seems wild and free and when she goes into something she does it wholeheartedly. I love this book the story line was interesting, I loved the characters, I loved that there was just enough drama to keep things interesting and I enjoyed seeing the banter and passion between Simone and Van. Overall I really enjoyed this book!
Highly recommend you check this book out but even more to check out the series, you'd appreciate the book more if you do that because previous characters make their appearance and I love getting to see the character I once enjoyed before getting to know their story and appearing from time to time.
