KYLE
I can’t believe I let my best friend talk me into being auctioned off for charity. But when I get a look at the guy who placed the winning bid, I feel like I’m the one who snagged the top prize.
AUSTIN
I didn’t get to where I am by letting opportunities slip through my fingers. When I learn that Kyle Pressgrove will be part of the bachelor auction taking place during All-Star weekend, that’s the kind of chance that you grab ahold of, and I have no intention of letting go.
With my career on the line and the possibility of Kyle being traded to a team half-way across the country, things between us might be over before they’ve even begun. I’d give anything to keep Kyle in my life, but everything might not be enough.
REVIEW
Review by: Jennifer
(4 Stars)
Austin has had a huge crush on Kyle for the longest time and now he finally has an opportunity to win a date with him in a bachelor auction. Having "known" Kyle in high school and followed him through his NHL career, Austin is a super fan of him and his team. He also has his own company that takes a lot of his time, so the first meeting with Kyle didn't really go well as he was on his phone pulled into business and distracted. When the two finally are able to have a proper sit down without distractions, what they had already suspected becomes more apparent; they are attracted to each other and want to see where this could go. But in the world of hockey and the issues that Austin is having with his own business, the two can barely find the time. What happens when the worst case scenario happens and Kyle gets traded? Will the two be able to make a long distance thing work, or should they just give it up and move on with their lives?
This turned out to be a good read, with the right amount of drama, we get to watch Kyle and Austin try and navigate a relationship while dealing with their high stress jobs. Entertaining and pulling us in, I give this 4 stars.
