The Dump was only the beginning. The Chase is worth waiting a lifetime for.
Dump & Chase by Toni Aleo is available now!
Shelli Adler has known what she wanted since she was eleven years old.
Aiden Brooks.
But Aiden has always had other ideas. After spending the early years of his life without his dad, hockey legend Lucas Brooks, Aiden is determined not to settle for anything less than true love. When he’s ready. Now he’s living the fast life of an NHL bachelor. He won’t give his heart to any one girl, but they can have his body—all night long.
The party to celebrate the start of the second half of the season was supposed to be no different from any other night. And when a stunning stranger approaches him, he can’t seem to keep his hands off her.
The next morning, she’s gone, and he’s been traded to his dad’s former team, the Nashville Assassins. All of his professional dreams are coming true, but he can’t shake the memory of the girl from that last party. He wants to see her again. Though, after moving across the country—and without knowing her name—that dream seems like a puck destined to miss the net.
For Shelli, her night with Aiden was everything she’d ever imagined it could be, and she’s sure it is all about to change for them. But for that to happen…he would have to know who she was.
The Dump was only the beginning. The Chase is worth waiting a lifetime for.
I just love Next Gen series. We get to see all the kiddos from the parents that we love. In this case, two of my favorite Assassin's books blend and we get to see what Shea and Lucas's kids are up to now as adults. Just about perfect for me.
Shelli is a spit fire and so very mature for her age. She knows what she wants and goes after it. It seems she has been a bit tongue tied around Aiden Brooks but finally gets the opportunity to see him away from home and hopefully make him truly see her.
No denying their chemistry! These two are HOT! My only issue was the beginning and the first time Shelli and Aiden are together. No matter how hung up Shelli was on him, they have know each other all their lives. I really think she would have called him out on maybe not recognizing her.
Other than that blip, I loved that these two decided to slow things down and get to know each other before jumping into more. Loved seeing their families all together again. Can not wait to read more in this series!

My name is Toni Aleo and I’m a total dork.
I am a wife, mother of two and a bulldog, and also a hopeless romantic.
I am the biggest Shea Weber fan ever, and can be found during hockey season with my nose pressed against the Bridgestone Arena’s glass, watching my Nashville Predators play!
When my nose isn’t pressed against the glass, I enjoy going to my husband and son’s hockey games, my daughter’s dance competition, hanging with my best friends, taking pictures, scrapbooking, and reading the latest romance novel.
I have a slight Disney and Harry Potter obsession, I love things that sparkle, I love the color pink, I might have been a Disney Princess in a past life… probably Belle.
… and did I mention I love hockey?
