Her new bakery is thriving, her daughter, Tinsley, is settling in well, and she has never felt more at home, but what happens when a new man walks into her bakery and sparks feelings in her that she thought she'd buried a long time ago? What starts as an unknown setup between Emily and Ian quickly leads to genuine attraction. Emily wants to push aside the first spark she's felt in years, but Ian makes it difficult when she watches the way he interacts with Tinsley and how he steps up when she's felt alone for a long time.

Download or read book Puckstruck written by Stephen Smith and published by Greystone Books. This book was released on 2014-10-25 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like many a Canadian kid, Stephen Smith was up on skates first thing as a boy, out in the weather chasing a puck and the promise of an NHL career. Back indoors after that didn’t quite work out, he turned to the bookshelf. That’s where, without entirely meaning to, he ended up reading all the hockey books. There was Crunch and Boom Boom, Slashing! and High Stick; there was Max Bentley: Hockey’s Dipsy-Doodle Dandy, Blue Line Murder, and Nagano, a Czech hockey opera. There was Blood on the Ice, Cracked Ice, Fire On Ice, Power On Ice, Cowboy On Ice, and Steel On Ice. In Puckstruck, Smith chronicles his wide-eyed and sometimes wincing wander through hockey’s literature, language, and culture, weighing its excitement and unbridled joy against its costs and vexing brutality. In exploring his own lifelong love of the game, hoping to surprise some sense out of it, he sifts hockey’s narratives in search of hockey’s heart, what it means and why it should distress us even as we celebrate its glories. On a journey to discover what the game might have to say about who we are as Canadians, he seeks to answer some of its essential riddles.
