With The Parent Playbook by Elsie Woods we finally get a book with a story of the Happy Horizon Ranch, the charity case for which the hockey tournament in Maple Falls is held. I must confess, that I thought this Ranch was not for real, if you know what I mean. Therefore, I think this is a special book, as the Ranch is mentioned in all the earlier four books and the reason for it all.
Angel Davis is the owner of the Happy Horizon Ranch, a home and vacation site for kids, which is in need for much repair. When she makes a financial mistake, Scotty MacFarland, former hockey player and now coach of the Ice Breakers hockey team, steps in. Together they try to repair things and this way they get in an easy friendship and maybe something more. They have a great chemistry. And their first meeting, a case of mistaken identity, is so funny and really sweet.
I loved Angel’s son Andrew, he is adorable. Many other characters from earlier novels in this cozy hockey romance series make an appearance as well.
It is so great that in each book the story is about the charity hockey tournament, while in each book there is another couple who are the main characters. Each book has it own interpretation of events and this way you get a more and whole story.
As in the other four books in the Love on Thin Ice series, this book is an easy read and it has a great plot and story-line. The writing style is flowing and a dual POV is always a nice asset to a story.
The Parent Playbook is a great addition to a great romance series, with a single Dad/single Mom trope, and is, in my opinion, together with the first book, the most important book to the series. It has all you want in a hockey romance story: a good plot, very likable characters who you root for, a wonderful small town setting (I want to go to Maple Falls), and a flowing writing style.
If you have not read one of these books, you are really missing out on a fantastic heartwarming cozy and sweet hockey romance series. Each book is a standalone, but I would recommend reading the books in order.
I am a big fan and I know I will be a bit sad when it all will end. For now I have two more books in this series lined up and I am very curious what these books will be like.
Highly recommended!
