Off the Ice (Juniper Falls #1) by Julie Cross
Publication Date: February 27, 2017
Publisher: Entangled Teen
The NY Times and USA TODAY bestselling author of Whatever Life Throws at You kicks off a brand-new series perfect for fans of Miranda Kennealy and Abbi Glines.
All is fair in love and hockey…
Claire O’Connor is back in Juniper Falls, but that doesn’t mean she wants to be. One semester off, that’s what she promised herself. Just long enough to take care of her father and keep the family business—a hockey bar beside the ice rink—afloat. After that, she’s getting the hell out. Again.
Enter Tate Tanley. What happened between them the night before she left town resurfaces the second they lay eyes on each other. But the guy she remembers has been replaced by a total hottie. When Tate is unexpectedly called in to take over for the hockey team’s star goalie, suddenly he’s in the spotlight and on his way to becoming just another egotistical varsity hockey player. And Claire’s sworn off Juniper Falls hockey players for good.
It’s the absolute worst time to fall in love.
For Tate and Claire, hockey isn’t just a game. And they both might not survive a body check to the heart.

WHAT IS ON JULIE’S DESK?
As you can see from the photos, I have a pretty clear workspace. I’m not going to claim to be the tidiest person in the world, but whenever items begin piling up on my desk I find myself less and less motivated to sit here and work. So everything in my office area has a place and very few items are allowed to remain on the desktop and surfaces.
Right above my head I keep a copy of each of the books I’ve written and published. These copies aren’t pristine or at least they aren’t anymore. I am constantly referencing them for either story details for sequel novels, quotes to post on twitter, details to help answer interview or promotion related questions, and sometimes to study the covers and the inside design.
Since I currently homeschool my two daughters, I also have three shelves devoted to my youngest daughters school materials (my older daughter is 14 and does most of her work independently. Her workspace is about four feet away). I also keep the surface clear above my daughters shelves so I can spin my chair away from my laptop and work on English grammar, math, or Latin with her and keep her on task.

I enjoy all kinds of sports, so I really enjoy reading books that have sports in them.
Have you read other books by Julie Cross? What is your favorite one? Tempest I love time travel stories and I passed it on to my granddaughter who was as enthralled as I was 🙂
Sports genre is new to me but it brings back memories of dating a football player for the BC Lions. All I can say is Wow! I think it’s time to explore sports again!
I have not read any of Julie’s books I’m not a huge hockey fan itself but I love all romance books. Thanks ?
