Lighting the Lamp

Welcome to the third season for the race to the Cup for Sophie Fournier in Lighting the Lamp by K.R. Collins. Collins starts us off right at the draft and takes us through training and through the tensenseness of the season. We feel the stress that Sophie feels and the joy of the wins. Ice hockey flows through the pages like a puck sliding along the ice.

I recommend reading the first two books in the series because Collins does not rehash any previous relationships so you have no clue of past histories except by people's comments that they even knew each other for a while or by an action taken that someone is at a stage of a relationship. This can leave the reader feeling a little in the dark about where relationships stand.

Collins writes an amazing piece on a woman's journey in sports and the obstacles she faces to play in a sport which is considered a male's sport. Lighting the Lamp illuminates not just the sport, but the dedication needed to not just thrive, but to succeed no matter your gender.

I received an ARC of this book and I am writing a review without prejudice and voluntarily.
