Thoughts: β€˜Mile High’ is book #1 of the Windy City Series! I really enjoyed this hockey romance book. I really liked the FMC & MMC, and their characters were written very well. I enjoyed the body image part of the story and how supportive and loving the MMC was. However, I did feel the first half dragged, and the book could have been shorter. If you love forced proximity, hockey romance, and reformed playboy, you will love this book!

Synopsis: ZANDERS - Chicago hockey isn’t complete without me - everyone’s favourite player to hate. I know my role, and I play it well. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy spending the majority of my game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a new girl on my arm each night. What I don’t like is the new flight attendant on our team’s private plane. She works for me, not the other way around. But I’ll be sure to remind her of that, and I can guarantee, by the end of the season, she’ll be begging to quit her job. But every road trip blurs the lines, and I can’t quite figure out if I keep pushing that flight attendant call button in order to push her buttons, or if it’s more than that.
STEVIE -  I’ve been a flight attendant for years. I thought I’d seen it all, but when my new job lands me onboard working for the most egotistical and self-righteous diva in the NHL, I start to second guess everything. Including the promise I made to myself of never hooking up with an athlete again . . . no matter how annoyingly tempting he may be. Evan Zanders is unfiltered, unapologetic, and too attractive for his own good. He loves his image, but I hate everything about it. Everything but him.

Please check trigger warning before reading this book.
