CLAIMING HUGHES - Quinn Hughes
Book 2 of the Quinn Hughes Series __________________________________ "You chose him. You always choose him." Those words shattered what was left of Eleanor Klein's world. Four years later, the pieces still haven't fit back together - and neither have the Kleins and the Hughes. But life has a funny way of forcing reunions, especially when Quinn Hughes and Matthew Klein both find themselves drafted to the same NHL team: the Vancouver Canucks. Meanwhile, Jack Hughes is busy living the dream (and distracting himself with a new girlfriend), and Luke Hughes... well, he's mostly just along for the ride, armed with snacks and sarcasm. When Eleanor crosses paths with Quinn again, the years disappear - and so does all their carefully built distance. Old feelings crash into new realities, and suddenly, "where the wind takes them" feels a lot more complicated than it sounds. There's chemistry, there's chaos, and there's definitely still heartbreak lingering under the surface. As Eleanor and Quinn figure out if the timing is finally right, Jack and Eleanor awkwardly rebuild the sibling-like bond they once had - because ignoring the past isn't an option anymore. Especially when your brother, and your not-so-secret crush all play for the same team. Love, hockey, and history collide in this funny, messy, and addictive second installment where sometimes the only way forward... is to finally claim what's been yours all along.
