One-On-One (Cayuga Cougars, Book 5) by V.L. Locey
The past few years have been a bit chaotic for Cougars new associate coach, Lancaster Hart. After an amiable divorce he began living his life as the gay man he’d kept closeted for far too long. With the recent move to Cayuga, he’s away from his support system and properly made sweet tea. Despite a roster filled with new friends and associates, he’s spending his nights alone.
As his team gears up to make a run at the Calder Cup, Lancaster discovers that not everything in upstate New York is wine, woodlands, and chilly conservative ideals. At a summer music festival, he first lays eyes on Townsend Harris, folksy/blues singer by night and mayoral office assistant by day. Lancaster is enraptured with the man’s powerful sultry voice. Also, Town just might be the most beautiful man he has seen in all his forty-one years.
The two hit it off at an informal meet and greet after the show, where they spend the night talking and sipping wine. One evening of conversation and an incendiary goodbye kiss leads them into a scorching love affair that might be exactly what Lancaster has been searching for his whole life. Can his team pull off professionally what he’s hoping to do privately as well? Or will capturing their dream evade both the Cougars and Lancaster?

A wonderful love at first sight story!
I loved the meet-cute between assistant coach, Lancaster and folk singer/mayor aide, Townsend. It was a somewhat believable love at first sight scenario for the couple and the story follows their road to love while they balance their careers, family and Lancaster Hockey Teams path to win the Calder Cup.
I really enjoyed this story but must say I have no clue about Ice Hockey. This book obviously follows on from the previous books and while I haven’t read them I could still follow the characters so I would consider this ok as a standalone. With my complete lack of knowledge about ice hockey, I was somewhat lost for about thirty per cent of the book. Thankfully the main story and interactions between Lan and Town distracted me from being too lost by hockey. Even though I was lost I got a feel for the energy around the hockey games, wins, losses and team. I was able to loosely follow along without missing the core of the story or feeling like I was missing any key points.
I really loved Lan and Town and am so glad they got their happily ever after! Now I just have to go back and read about the other rainbow team members!
