Synopsis (Goodreads):
What if Romeo wore hockey skates, and Juliet was raised on a farm next door?

As a life-long Vermonter, there are three beliefs I’ve always held true:
1. Our family farm is everything
2. Hockey is a close second
3. The Todds next door are our sworn enemies

But this season will test everything I stand for.

I have an illicit side job that could cost me my hockey scholarship. And now Maggie Todd knows my secret. She’s waiting for the right moment to use it against me. But every time I face off against her, I learn things I shouldn’t want to know. Like how deeply her competitive streak runs, and how sexy that is. And how easy it is to make her blush… everywhere.

An Adler and a Todd cannot be lovers. Breaking that rule is like pulling a pin on a grenade--everything in my life could blow up. Can we surrender to these feelings… or will our families’ feud make us its next casualty?
Thoughts on Blindsided: Ahh. Maggie and Tate. The Todds and the Adlers. Families with neighboring farms and a long-standing feud. Feud may containing fist-fighting seniors, a slam-dunk throw at the dunk tank, a whole lot of secrets, and a whole lot of scowling.

Maggie and Tate ABSOLUTELY do not intend to end this feud. In fact, their first steamy encounter was supposed to be a one and done. Except...they couldn't seem to stay away from one another. Which is fine. I'm sure nobody in their respective families are going to notice them sneaking around. Probably. Really. It'll be fine.

To make things even more complicated, Maggie and her sister know about Tate's not-quite-approved-by-the-school side job and he's sort of on pins and needles about them revealing it. Yeah, these two have a messy, complex thing going on. But it'll be fine. I'm sure.

On the downside, things have to get worse for these two before they can get better. But once things come to a head, secrets are uncovered, lines are drawn, and there's a chance things might work out if only these two families could get out of their own way. *thumbs up*
