Not one of her best. If was very hard to get through and not very interesting.
Deirdre Martin stories are based around a fictional Hockey team called the New York Blades. Most of her characters in her books interact through the different books. It is best to read them in order but not necessary. If you do read them in order you will get a background stories of the characters you may meet in future books.
