Catherine Gayle is one of my newest “Favorite” Authors. Especially where her Portland Storm Series is concerned. (I read Breakaway a few weeks ago, and was captivated.)She jumps right into the deep, dirty, nitty gritty aspects of life. If I thought Dana’s Story (in Breakaway) was hard? I was in no way prepared for Rachel and her kids. My heart broke. I got angry. And through it all? Eric (Dana’s brother, Eric’s best friend) was there. With the same grace and compassion that Eric showed in book one.This review is hard to write – I don’t want to give spoilers. I want you to read this. (Even if you’re not into sports romance, jocks, whatever. This series? It’s phenomenal. It tugs at your heart and makes you want to fall in love all over again!Catherine Gayle writes tough subjects, but her stories are solid. Her secondary characters are as amazing as the primaries. And she leaves no stone unturned – unless we’re discussing a cliffhanger with the secondary characters! (Cliffhangers are such cruel jokes, aren’t they??)The whole team is part of this story. We get to see more of the office workings, with Rachel being the General Managers new assistant. And Eric is now roommates with Babs (who I really love seeing his story with Katie Webber play out!) and we have a few new players, who I’m hoping will star in future books!I am so in love with this world that Catherine Gayle has created. Her books are “one sittings” for me – I read them, and read them and read them. And then, when they are done? I realize I haven’t moved from my couch for the past few hours because I had to keep reading.If you’re a fan of romance, in any form, the Portland Storm series by Catherine Gayle is DEFINITELY the series for you! (But I do have to admit, you need to start with book one!)
