She’s the saint with a secret. He’s the sinner with a heart of gold.
For Emma Moritello, giving abandoned and rejected children a safe home is her life’s purpose, but pressures at work means her dream may be coming to a close. And just when she thought life couldn’t get more challenging, along comes hockey’s bad boy, keen to make amends. God might want her to love her enemies, but it doesn’t mean she has to like them. Especially this hockey enforcer, who has the nerve to try to stir her heart.
TJ Woletsky has never tried to hide his sins—his exploits are tabloid fodder, and hockey teams love to hate him. Including his own. When a trade takes him to New York he’s confronted with the repercussions of his past, and time spent with the unfortunate helps ignite his desire to turn his life around. Until an incident in a nightclub makes everyone question whether this sinner can ever really change.
This story of second chances is the fifth book in the Original Six Christian hockey romance series, a sweet and swoony, slightly sporty, Christian contemporary romance series from bestselling author Carolyn Miller.
Every Carolyn Miller novel is a worth buying and worth reading again and again. This was no exception. I was wondering just how TJ’s story would play out and was so moved by his redemption arc. It was quite realistic.

This book is a great read! When the book starts with “He was, quite possibly, the ugliest man she had ever seen.” You just know you are in for a great read.

Big Apple Atonement by Carolyn Miller is the fifth book in the Original Six Hockey series and a definite must read if you love inspirational contemporary romance stories that revolve around sports. I loved reading TJ and Emma’s love story, but this story is more than just romance. It is about two people who learn that their past mistakes don’t define them and whereas their changed lives and good works make a difference for those around them, they are saved by grace and God sees what is inside.
