Checking It Twice (The Carlisles #3) by Meg Harding










Blurb

Closeted professional hockey player Eric Belanger is falling hard for an out-and-proud male model. He’s unable to resist Dorian’s charm and pushing personal boundaries he never thought he’d cross. But Dorian is the kind of guy who deserves someone who isn’t afraid to be himself. Eric’s fears about what coming out will do to his career clash with the future he hopes to build with Dorian. He knows he’ll eventually have to make a choice.

Dorian Carlisle knows better than to date a man who wants to keep him a secret, but there’s something about Eric he can’t ignore. So he’ll take the risk, and it’ll be all right, because this isn’t a forever romance. He’s happy to live in the moment. But somehow, at some point, feelings sneak up on him and he’s not okay anymore. At a breaking point, Dorian must also make a decision. Their time together will either be the start of something wonderful or nothing more than a happy memory.



Review 
My Rating - 5 Stars!

I love hockey romances, and Meg Harding's Checking It Twice is a fabulous one.

Eric meets Dorian during a photo shoot. Dorian is flustered by the hot, hunky hockey, while Eric is instantly drawn to the adorable model. From the start, Dorian is just the cutest. It's so cute that he doesn't know anything about sports, but is stuck with a hockey player who's interested in him. And Eric is just precious with his inexperience with guys.

I love stories with closeted athletes, and Eric is just that, as he's afraid to come out in the tough world of hockey. Their story is full of fear and doubts. And hot hockey players.

Written in present tense, it drives me crazy at times, but overall the author does a great job of avoiding some of the annoying pitfalls of doing so. 

I love the guys, their family, and teammates. I love every single second of this book and will definitely be re-reading it again. If you love hockey romances, definitely check out Meg Harding's Checking It Twice.
