“A sexy, heartwarming read!” —Elle Kennedy, New York Times bestselling author
A Lie for a Lie, an all-new sexy second chance romance from New York Times bestselling author Helena Hunting is available now!
From the New York Times bestselling author of the Pucked series comes a romantic comedy about instant attraction, second chances, and not-so-little white lies.
Sometimes I need an escape from the demands, the puck bunnies, and the notoriety that come with being an NHL team captain. I just want to be a normal guy for a few weeks. So when I leave Chicago for some peace and quiet, the last thing I expect is for a gorgeous woman to literally fall into my lap on a flight to Alaska. Even better, she has absolutely no idea who I am.
Lainey is the perfect escape from my life. My plan for seclusion becomes a monthlong sex fest punctuated with domestic bliss. But it ends just as abruptly as it began. When I’m called away on a family emergency, I realize too late that I have no way to contact Lainey.
A year later, a chance encounter throws Lainey and me together again. But I still have a lie hanging over my head, and Lainey’s keeping secrets of her own. With more than lust at stake, the truth may be our game changer.

Review:
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
A Lie for a Lie is the first book in a brand new series called All In by Helena Hunting. Each novel will be a stand-alone. Lainey and Rook's story ends in this book. The blurb covers up very well what the book is about and that's all you need to know. Ok. almost all you need to know.
The first thing you should be aware of is that Rook slept with anyone who was willing a while back and I know that some readers are not fans of characters like that, so they might what to know that before they pick this book to read next. There is no direct mention of him sleeping with other women after his night with Lainey, but I might not remember correctly.
The second thing you should know is that a part of the story happens in the past and particularly we get to see the events of the time Lainey and Rook spent together over a year ago. Personally, I would have preferred to not have the past told in so many details because I felt like we needed to focus on the present and how the characters were going to handle their situation. I feel like the "second part" was a little rushed and it needed to be explored in more.
Overall though, I liked the book and for the most part I didn't have a problem with the story. Some little things came up only after I had finished the book and had the whole experience from reading tthe story settle in my mind. I would recommend it.
