Summary
Colby Fischer is a bad boy with attitude and a chip on his shoulder. As a senior at a Southern California college, he knows this may be his last shot. He doubts he’ll ever become the hockey legend he dreamed of being as a kid, but he definitely doesn’t want to be an accountant. Things get interesting when he’s asked to train the new intern at his step-dad’s firm, who happens to be the troublemaker from his econ class. And the one guy Colby can’t stand.
Baseball is Sky Jameson’s life. He’s happy to be back at Chilton for his senior year, but he’s burned a few bridges and has a bit too much free time off-season. He could use the money and something to keep him busy until his season begins. But his accidental crush on his prickly coworker could be a problem. Colby is straight and Sky is in the closet. Their timing isn’t great, but the intense attraction is hard to deny. With his final season on the hockey team in the balance, Colby may have to decide if he’s ready to come out on the ice.

My favorite in the series!
5 Stars!
We met Sky in previous books in the series and frankly, I wasn't sure he was a redeemable or even likable character. I should've known if there was someone that could make me love him, it'd be Ms. Hayes.
Sky and Colby meet during summer school and they don't exactly hit it off, despite Colby having a sort of kind of crush on Sky, even if he's never been interested in men before. When Colby's stepdad hires Sky to be Colby's replacement at his firm, they become closer. However, with Colby being supposedly straight and Sky being gay, they will have to decide if coming out is even an option for them.
I loved Colby, he was so much fun when he was freaking out about having a crush on Sky. I was trying to stifle my laughs at 1am when I started listening to the audiobook. And while he had some anger issues, especially with his stepfather—which I felt was a bit OTT, considering Harry seemed so nice—it only showed us that Colby was a flawed but adorable character. This book is told from Colby's POV, yet I felt we got to know Sky pretty well through his talks with Colby. I felt so bad for all he had to go through with his parents and I was happy that he was trying to turn his life around. Colby and Sky had explosive chemistry and I loved their banter and overall interactions. While Sky was the first man Colby was attracted to, and of course, it wasn't too easy for Colby to accept, it felt very realistic and I loved the way their relationship progressed.
The narration was amazing and Michael Dean did a fantastic job with all the characters, especially Colby and Sky. Other than a few moments in which I was so anxious about what would happen that I wish I could've skimmed through the book to get a sneak peek, I had a lot of fun listening to this audiobook. I think it's my favorite in the series so far. Highly recommendable!

loved it x
This book was simply perfect. The love story between Colby and Sky (although Sky had been a knob in previous books), was utterly beautiful. I've gotta say I really liked Sky (you doubters, I knew he'd be redeemable!), in previous stories, but I completely fell in love with him in this book.
Through Colby we see a side to Sky that he never shows to anyone else. Colby falls heavily, and little did he know that Sky feels the same way, or that their lives are going to change forever.
But, as we know, true love never runs smoothly, and when they agree to keep their blossoming romance a secret, you know there's going to be trouble ahead.
Ms Hayes' characters are always so real and well rounded that you feel like these are people you know in real life. That you are reading a story about your friends, and that you genuinely care what happens to them. You get this feeling, not just with the two main characters but with all the characters in the story.
She writes beautiful heartwarming stories which will have you smiling throughout, whether that's smiling at the gorgeous heroes, the gorgeous love stories or the brilliant dialogue. It definitely has that feel good factor that will have you turning page after page. With Out On the Ice, she has done it again, with a brilliant story I absolutely devoured. I absolutely love this series. I so highly recommend it.
The audio enhanced the enjoyment of the story even further. Michael Dean is spot on with both Sky and Colby's voices. The emotions experienced by the character are very believable. The epilogue i

Just wonderful!
Lane has such power with words and there is just something about her writing the draws you in and truly makes you feel, love and live along with the characters. Her writing is so REAL and poignant and this one is no exception.
I loved Colby. He dives headfirst into his attraction and doesn't shy away from these new emotions, feelings, and attractions. I found these elements so refreshing! His care and chemistry with Sky were off the charts and I'm loving seeing them embrace each other, faults and all. I loved Colby's honesty throughout. It was refreshing to read about a character who was honest, upfront and not afraid of emotions, even though he'd never thought about a guy being attractive before Sky.
I loved these two so much and think they might be my new favorites of the series!!!
Thanks for reading!

This is a very average book.
There is not much that rings true, is new, or is memorable in this fairly average but not unpleasant commercial romance. There is as well very little mention of sport for what is supposedly a 'sports romance'.
The reader does his best with what he has been given
