The First Intermission (Indianapolis Eagles Series Book 6) Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 135 ratings

The core group of friends who found their happy endings are back, still loving hockey almost as much as their women. Now, four years later, the Eagles find themselves in the finals, with home ice advantage and on the cusp of winning the Stanley Cup once again.

It all started with a second chance, for Becca to just say yes to forever.

And is Kinley still living the dream after scoring the player?

What does life have in store for Madison and Richard, now that they decided playing for keeps is much more satisfying than friends with benefits.

When Mark vowed to Laura he would protect her heart, he meant it from the very beginning. He was all-in, forever, no matter what.

Reese and Austin’s chance meeting turned their worlds upside down in a single instant. Hot and heavy against the boards had their chemistry melting the ice.

Along with retirements, new positions, and additions to not only the team, but each of the families, come meet some new players who will lead us out of the First Intermission and into the second period.

    This is book 6 of the Indianapolis eagle series it’s basically the ending of all our lovely couples from books 1-5 and a catch up and it takes 4 years later! It’s a where are they and where are they going and later? It’s a sweet book and loved seeing all the couples and families catch up,

    I have read the whole series, so this book was like catching up with a bunch of family and friends, so I loved the updates on everybody's lives. I can hardly wait to read Julia and Beckett's book even though it is the series finale. Guess I will have to find a new series.

    I have been a fan of Samantha Lind’s Indianapolis Eagles series from the start, so I LOVED the idea of a catch-all book that shows the couple’s five years later. Who is having babies? Who is expanding their family? Who is retiring? This was a great look at these characters years down the road.

    We also got to meet a few new couples, like the Eagles’ goalie coach and his wife, and their daughter, who is a physical therapist. Sparks fly between Julia and new Eagles player Beckett when she does her dad a favor and works the new guy into her schedule. They will be the couple features in SL’s new spin-off series. Is dating the coach’s daughter ever a good idea?

    I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

    I just loved catching up with everyone and see how their lives have progressed. Lots of babies and loving couples. Loved how Samantha incorporated the tiniest of children to show their fathers connection to each of them. Plus, now we have a potential new couple to get know. Another great story from Samantha Lind and I can't wait for our next story!!

    Updates on all my favs, plus hints of a new love. Great job with this bunch of hockey loving women and the men who play.

    I received a review copy of the book First Intermission before release for an honest review.

    This was a very fun story for fan of this series. It is titled Book 6 in the series but its really 5.5 as it connects between book 5 and book 7 which will be out in the Fall of 2019. You must read books 1-5 or you will be so lost in this story.
    Even though I have read all the books at times I had to remind myself which story they came from. This story features all the characters 4 years after Reese and Austin's story ends and we catch up to all the couples with their trials, successes and where they are in relation to their family life and their jobs.
    It stars 7 couples, each from books 1-5
    Becca and Scott
    Kinley and Brian
    Madison and Richard
    Laura and Mark
    Reese and Austin
    But it also adds some new characters Bridget and Matt, Matt is coach on the Eagles Hockey team and Bridget is his wife. They are an older couple who have been married since they were 20 and they have a daughter Julia who is 22 and a Physical therapist. Matt asks Julia to check over his new goalie, Beckett who is also 22 who has a minor injury and they are the 7th couple. Nothing much happens for B and J yet, but they are the featured couple in book 7.
    This was an awesome read. It reminded me why I love this series so much and I got to see how my favorite couples are doing. But it also got me very excited about book 7.

    This story takes place four years after Against the Boards and we get to reconnect with all the characters we know and love from the Indianapolis Eagles. These four years have brought a lot of changes but the relationships between the characters are stronger than ever whether it is the friendships with the other couples or the deep love that the couples share with each other.

    Not only do we get an update on the existing characters, but we are also introduced to Julia, a physical therapist, and Beckett the new goalie for the team. There is no denying the chemistry between them but her father is his coach with their full story yet to come. Let the fun begin!

    This is a heartwarming story about love and family with no shortage of heat and emotion. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

    The First Intermission catches us up on all of our favorite couples from the Eagles series! Samantha Lind knows how to write fun, real life characters with the sweetest couples! It was so great going back into thier world and finding out what they have been up to. This book is set 4 years after Reese and Austin's book and told from several POV. My only complaint is that some characters got to say more than others and some couples were in the spot light more than others. This book also helped set up the next generation of Eagles! If you have not read this series do no read this book!! You definitely need to read all of the previous books!

    5.0 out of 5 stars The best epilogue ever to wrap up the series!
    Reviewed in Canada on April 2, 2020
    It was great to get to see where everyone from the gang was almost five years after the end of the last book. I loved to be able to see all the additions to the families. I think this book put a nice now on the entire series and made me very excited for Beckett and Julia's book!
