Another fabulous 5 Star read from Nikki Worrell. Goalie Interference is the second book in the NHL Scorpions series, and picks up right where The Enforcer leaves off. In my opinion this book can be read as a standalone as Zoe and Vlad are only friends of the main characters in The Enforcer but you will enjoy this book so much more if you read The Enforcer first.We first met Vlad and Zoe in The Enforcer and know there is something between them and have some history but their circumstances will not allow it, Zoe is the team psychologist for the San Diego Scorpion and Vlad is their goalie and also a patient of Zoe’s. As the book starts we get to see that first meeting between them and see from that moment Vlad was smitten with the good doctor and he wasn’t going to give up. It then picks up where their good friends, Jody and Lacey from The Enforcer have just tied the knot and Vlad is determined to get Zoe to give in to what is going on between them. And he has decided if he can’t have her, no one else can either.”I want you, and I’ll have you. GO ahead and try to date. I’ll interfere with every goddamn one. You understand? You’re mine, Zoe Millis, and I’m going to prove it to you. I’m going to ruin you for all other men.” ~ Vlad BejsiukBut something happens, something we saw a hint of in The Enforcer but have seen more of and then it is confirmed. But when Vlad is faced losing one love he gains another. But now that he has what he wants, can he be truly be happy, will things finally work out. And what will be waiting just around the corner to keep things interesting?I really enjoyed Vlad as a secondary character in The Enforcer so was definitely looking forward to Goalie Interference but l truly didn’t expect to fall in love with him as much as I did, even more than I did with Jody. He may be a hot hockey player but he truly has such a great heart that truly makes you swoon.Zoe has seen her shares of hard times, not having a great upbringing after losing her parents but she is such a strong woman who knows what she wants and when she makes up her mind she goes for it, and boy did she ever!”The first time I see you each day, you take my breath away. I thought about what it would be like without you in my life and it hurt here. You and me – we fit.” ~ Zoe MillisI truly enjoyed this book, it had the right combination of romance, sexy hotness, with a side of I didn’t see that coming along with a great message about a topic that is very much in the news today right at the end. I really loved the dynamic the author created between these two characters and although this is fiction and we loved to escape reality sometimes, I really loved that this story had a realistic feel with all elements of it, from the moment I started reading till the time I finished, I just had to know their story and how it would all end, would Vlad and Zoe after all these years get that HEA they truly deserve.”I love you Vlad Bejsiuk. I know I gave you a lot of grief, but I’m glad you kept interfering in my life” ~ Zoe MillisAnd the best part, just like the end of The Enforcer, Goalie Interference has an added bonus, we don’t have to say goodbye completely to our favorite characters just yet, YAY!
