Tacker (Arizona Vengeance, Book #5)

Sawyer Bennett

Release Date: November 5, 2019

Synopsis:

I am not okay.

Fifteen months ago, my life was turned upside down when the plane I was piloting went down. Injured and trapped in the wreckage, I had to watch my fiancée die a painfully slow death, which is something that can really mess with your head.

Since that day, I’ve had little desire to do much of anything. Except play hockey, that is. Because that is the one place where the bad memories are banished and I can escape my pain.

But off the ice, I’m spiraling out of control. Losing the grip on my life and putting myself and my career in danger. Now, thanks to a string of bad decisions, I’ve been ordered to complete therapy in order to stay on the team.

The problem? Nora Wayne, my beautiful and somewhat unconventional therapist. I can’t buy into the brand of happy clappy crap this woman is feeding me. What could she possibly understand about the type of loss that I’ve suffered? How does she know anything about finding happiness after losing the most important person in your life?

Turns out, I’ve got a lot to learn, and she’s just the person I need to break through those walls I’ve erected.

I am not okay.

But for the first time in a long time, I know that I will be.

Download Tacker:

I knew Tacker’s story was going to be a sad one but I didn’t expect Nora’s past to absolutely crush me. I have been wanting Tacker's story since I first met him at the beginning of the series. Tacker suffered a great loss and blamed himself for it, we have been fed little bits and pieces throughout each of the books in the series and since they overlap I suggest reading them in order, and he stole my heart more and more with each morsel we learned out about him. Now Tacker has gotten himself in a bit of trouble and instead of the team owner cutting him loose he requires him to go to therapy.

Nora, WOW, she is nothing at all like I had expected. I knew it would take a strong person to help Tacker deal with his past but damn this woman rocks. I am not going to tell you anything about her other than she is Tacker's therapist and there is an instant connection between the two of them. I thought my heart broke when I heard about Tacker's past but if that was the case Nora's past stomped it to pieces. I am telling you now TISSUES ARE A MUST!!!!

I have been really enjoying this series watching each of these men find the woman of their dreams but what I think I enjoy most of all is the overlapping of the stories so you see different points of views during different events that are going on. I would highly suggest reading this series in order of release, they do not end with a cliffhanger and each book is based around one main couple but if you skip around you may miss something or it may spoil something for you.

Happy Reading!!!
