Hat Trick: A Hockey Romance

Written by Kelly Jamieson

Narrated by Alexandra Rosewood

The Heller brothers are all heading home for the holidays in their short break in the hockey season. It should be a great family reunion since three of the four brothers are bringing their new girlfriends. But Jase and Remi just got the results of an important DNA test, and neither of them is in a mood to celebrate. Tag and Kyla also just got some surprising news that has them at odds, and Nicole's nervous about meeting the whole family when she and Logan have been together such a short time. Instead of peace and joy, this holiday is full of angst, worry and tension...is love really enough to overcome all obstacles?

Reviews for Hat Trick

[Jenna Vaughn · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Brief holiday story to bring the three couples together at home with the parents. Jason's behavior irritated me. But Tag has the right of it and thankfully set him straight

So much complaining in a little novella. Felt like this was a quick story to conclude all the other relationship story’s but could have been done so much better. Didn’t enjoy the narrators make voices. Holding out hope the final story is an improvement

Well I am pissed ?. There are 3 couples rich once and they have so many OPTIONS not like middle class or even poor people... and the pressure is so not OK, the insecurities of the wemen . Pleasseee.
My ❤️ for them :)

This was tough bc I love Kelly Jamieson work but this series just didn’t do for me. It’s not the drama but the blind selfishness and utter immaturity, it’s like the whole series was HFN, maybe not because we’re all asshats except maybe Logan.

Jace knows Remi has been bogged down with responsibilities for her bratty siblings, Remi can’t understand how after following a pregnancy and holding Emily, Jace could become vested regardless of DNA. This is most disappointing storyline and it set the pace for sure.
Tag such as cavemen & Kyla is work obsessed.
Nicole is mighty judgie and whiny for someone who wants to fit in.
But Ma & Pa Heller have hope until Matt’s story comes along

1.75 Generous Stars for me!

This series has been pretty good up until this story. I am not sure what KJ was thinking or if she was on serious pain killers when she wrote this story. I really enjoyed the first three stories... even with the drama but this story had me saying O M G at least 100 times... out loud! My guess is that several neighbors think that I am nuts.

On the plus side
1. I like how the main h handled her sister at the beginning of the story.
2. I enjoyed how the mom took charge at the family home.
3. I liked the fact that the main h was supportive of her future husband's willingness to do the right thing if the child was his.

Will I read other stories by this author? 100% Yes.

What drove me so crazy?

1. The main H is all dour when he and his h find out that the baby is not his and that his previous GF lied about sleeping with anyone else. I can understand a bit of disappointment and being let down; however, he took it to the extreme.
1a. We need to get pregnant immediately... Then every few hours, pushing? She gets upset and he cannot comprehend why? No one is that daft.
1b. He has no clue that going to see his ex after having a big argument with his h would upset her... Again, really? He has taken at least 10,000 hockey pucks to the head to be that dense.

2. H2 throws a fit when his h wants to play hockey with the family. Seems like a huge problem until he blurts out that she is pregnant.
2a. Yes he should have asked her to go somewhere private to discuss but he chose to be a hothead.
2b. Had he sat quietly by and not commented and she decided to play... what would have happened if a hockey Puck slammed into her stomach? Common sense please.
2c. She later tells her H that work might be more important than the baby so she wasn't sure if she was going to have the child. Regardless of where you stand on termination, to choose a job over a child seems to be a bit selfish. She quickly decides that work is less important so that worked itself out.
3. For such a short story, there was so much head banter.
4. The spicy scenes were completely washed out by the actions of the characters. It gave me an eww feeling.

End of rant! ?

The story is good, but it needs to cut all the sex. It didn't need all that.
