Delay of Game -- Shannon Carse, Paperback

Lex Grant has hit a wall.

Her career as a crime author has grown as stagnant as her relationship with Graham, the sweet boyfriend she can't let in because of the emotional scars of her past.

When her friend's upcoming wedding takes her back to Brockhurst, Massachusetts, Lex finds herself face to face with her past, including her ailing grandmother and the ex-boyfriend she left five years ago.

Will Bennett, ex-hockey player and Lex's high school sweetheart, is the whole reason she left for California. He never could open up to her, and a career-ending injury sent him into a dark spiral.

Now, sparks fly at their reunion, and Lex has to decide whether to open her heart again or flee like she did last time.

Unexpected help comes in the form of her grandmother's stories about her first love in the 1960s who tragically died in Vietnam. The two women's stories serve as a mirror, and to find true happiness, Lex must learn that sometimes what you're looking for is right where you left it.
