ALL. THE. STARS!!!

This was such an beautiful conclusion to the trilogy and is definitely tied with Favor for my favorite!

Helena’s stories aren’t just fluffy rom coms or steamy romances — yes, they’re hilarious and wonderfully steamy, but they’re also so full heart and raw emotion, making them feel so realistic, and Secret hits every single mark! Her characters are just real, dealing with struggles we all feel, bending and breaking and healing in ways that we can learn from for our own lives and that’s truly remarkable.

Needless to say I have yet another new favorite and you will hear me sing nothing but praises for Helena and this book and series!

Queenie and King.

There was this very sparky one night stand six weeks ago and now they find out that she's working for the manager of the hockey team he's playing for. And not only that, but said manager is her dad!

Her dad quickly initiated a no-dating-the-players policy. But they can be friends, right?

And maybe her dad won't be too mad if they asked nicely if they could date??

And his crazy family and her secret past won't become a problem soon, right?? LOL!

LET THE FUN TIMES BEGIN ...

Adorable!

Another beautiful hockey romance!

Queenie and Ryan/King are soo adorable and funny and awkward. Especially sweetheart King. He's soo boy scouty and just so ... good!

I absolutely adored those two. It was so super adorable and hilarious and crazy to watch them fight for their happily ever after!

I loved that we didn't get this typical misunderstanding - you know the one? The one romances almost always use - no idea why - where we fight and break up and it could've all been cleared up with just one conversation or whatever - ugh - I hate those! ☺

I just loved reading this ... and seeing all the people again!

Can't wait for more - I wouldn't mind reading Lavender and Kody's love story one day! ☺

A SECRET FOR A SECRET was such an adorable + funny Hockey Romance!!! I just loved it!! Run to your nearest amazon for your own King - he'll be sold out in no time - and this one is MINE!

This is book 3 in the series and I believe its the last one and well I hate that there is not more. In this story we meet Ryan and Queenie who have a sorta one night stand. Read it and you will understand why its a sorta. Its a night where they confess their biggest secrets to each other.

Then they meet a few weeks later and he finds out that she had a big secret too and that she is the daughter of his new coach. And they will see alot of each other. Ryan is an awesome guy. He is a hockey player that has never been into one night stands and he and Q have an awesome relationship.

I loved how they form a deep friendship and she makes him get her dads permission before their date and her dad was so awesome. I really hope we get to see a romance develop between her dad and Ryan's sister. This was a wonderful story about love, romance, friendship and family. I loved it so much.

Helena Hunting is the queen of hockey romance books. A Secret for a Secret is so so so good with a lot of heart and toe curling steam. King and Queenie’s story is just so swoon worth and is what true love is all about. I loved every second of A Secret for a Secret. Want this to be the last in the series because I love all the characters and don’t want the series to end. I’m looking forward to reading Jake, Queenie's fathers love story. 5 amazing stars.

I've been excited about this book since I first heard about it, and it did not disappoint. The characters sucked you into the story and the story kept you turning pages as fast as you could. I devoured it in a day. I loved it.

The story or Ryan and Queenie.

Abosolutely loved this book!

They have one night together, and neither knows who the other really is and when she sneaks out on him she doesn't leave contact details. Fast forward to the first day of the new season, and he finds out she is the not only the bosses daughter, but his new assistant - off limits for him but they can't keep away from each other.

With meddling family and a secret from her past, do they have a chance together?

ARC received for an honest review


Another super cute story from Helena Hunting. And set in my favourite city in the USA that I have visited - Seattle. We are already on a winner!!
Forget the other two books in this series (well, don't really, but just for the minute) - A Secret for A Secret is a definite favourite.

King and Queenie are all kinds of sweet and cute and full of lust for each other. Oy, you can cut the sexual tension through a knife, and there are proximity pheromones flying all around them *fans self*

King is so the antithesis of hockey players we have seen before. He really is a boy scout when it comes to life, to his career, to women. And if you are like me, you can't help smiling every time he is on the page.

I freaking adore Queenie. She is floundering, not sure what she want in life, and now she has found her King, is even more confuzzled.

The character I didn't think I was going to get along with was Queenie's dad,and I was completely surprised with his actions and the way he reacted to things. He was so not what I was expecting.

There were WTF moments right from the beginning of this story, and they kept on coming. I was anxious but impatient to turn each page to find out what was happening.

I also love love loved getting to see Violet and the Waters family. There is one that will completely steal your heart.

I want, no, I need more of this series. Please give me more Ms Hunting.

Omg I absolutely love Kingston. Kingston is sweet, sexy and absolutely a character you will never forget. Queenie & Kingston is perfect for each other. I love getting more of Bishop and his crazy boxers. This series is absolutely perfection and the characters are all amazing. Another 5 Star read that will have you hooked from page one.

A Secret for a Secret by Helena Hunting is book three in the All In Series. Every book is about another couple and can easily be read as a stand-alone.
Ryan Kingston is goalie for the Seattle NHL Team. He's a good guy, slightly ocd, a bit like a puppy. You simply have to love him, no choice.
Queenie is the manager's daughter and she's just finding her way in live. She starts working as her dad's PA. On her first day both meet and there's insta attraction on both sides. But while Kingston is the rukle follower par excellence, Queenie is a bit a free spirit.
I loved reading Kingston and Queenies story. I loved meeting characters from the original Pucked Series, Alex, Vi - and the kids are so adorable.
Reading A Secret for a Secret is like coming home, I loved every single thing about the book,
5 beautiful stars.

Kingston plays hockey for the Seattle He is polite, responsible and always a gentlemen.
Shocking family news sends him to a bar to get very drunk. Where he meets Queenie she is also there to get very drunk. They hit it off immediately, he takes her home but she is gone in the morning. He feels terrible. He doesn't do one night stands. When their paths cross again, they are thrown together in circumstances they can't very well control. The love story between King and Queenie is both hilarious and sweet. He is such a good guy and she is a mess. Perfect match! Do not miss this funny and romantic story!

Absolutely LOVED this book! King is my new favorite Helena guy!!! He’s just so sweet! And again she creates these amazing characters that I just want to be best friends with.

King and Queenie, calm and chaos...what's that saying? Opposites attract? Well they attracted, connected, and pretty much needed a warning label for how hot their chemistry is!

Oh my lanta I am in love with Queenie and King! You can honesty relate to Queenie, because who hasn’t felt like they have accomplished nothing. She struggles so much with her own inner demons and past. She doesn’t even realize she is letting it rule her life. The there is King. He is the sweetest freaking character! The love and support he has for Queenie is just a beautiful thing to read bc he loves her and believes in her enough for the both of them. Fantastic book and fantastic series.

Ryan Kingston, King to his friends, is at a bar drinking. It is absolutely not something he'd normally do but this day he has learned a secret that has changed everything he ever thought about his life. While he is sitting at the bar, trying to decide which of the drinks in front of him to drink, he sees her.

Queenie came to the bar to forget her day too. She and Ryan hit it off. The next morning, Ryan wakes up and remembers what happened the night before. Queenie is gone leaving nothing behind but a scribbled thank you and a pair of panties.

Weeks later, a Ryan is at the rink, ready to practice with his new team. He's the goalie for Seattle. In walks his general manager with a woman. Things go from bad to worse when the woman is introduced as the general manager's daughter and Ryan gets a look at her. It's Queenie.

Breaking rules is not something Ryan does. He doesn't speed, he doesn't fight and he goes through more milk than a toddler. Queenie is a free spirit and believes herself to be a failure because that's what her mother told her.

I loved this book. This is book 3 in Helena Hunting's series All In. I have loved all of the author's previous books and this one did not disappoint. The characters are multifaceted and you feel like you really know them. Some of the characters from her precious series, Pucked, walk through the stories. It's like being able to catch up with old friends.

Don't miss A Secret for a Secret. One word of advice; don’t start this book before you go to bed. You’ll be up all night because you won’t be able to put it down.

This is the third book in Helena Hunting’s. All In series. This book is focused on Ryan “king” Kingston and Queenie Masterson, the Thrashers GM’s daughter. Except, when these Two met, they had no clue who the other was. After a one night stand, no numbers exchanged. They both they thought, that’s it. Well, when the new season started, they meet up again. Both are floored, Queenie’s dad had one rule, “don’t mess with the team.” Queenie loves her dad, he was always there for her, so she doesn’t want to disappoint him. Unfortunately Ryan is very determined. The chemistry is just too hard deny, plus the get caught; they see where thugs go. All of Queenis’s life she didn’t feel like she belonged, she looked scattered, chaotic. Ryan, a milk drinking, slow driver, follow the rules kinda quirky guy, loves what he sees; her. Now he just has to talk into giving him a chance. Will it work? Or will all her insecurities have her run?

Another fantastic book in the All In series. King is the goalie for the Seattle NHL. He is as wholesome as they come and doesn’t do one night stands, except for the one time a few months ago. . Queenie has had her fair share of challenges and when she takes the job as her father’s (The general manager of the Seattle NHL team) assistant, she has no idea that she is about to run into her one night stand. They have electric chemistry from the start and it is a challenge to not act of the chemistry that is still there in their current situation. I loved King and his sweetness and abilities to roll with the chaos that Queenie’s world seems to bring. This is a stand alone book, but we also get to catch up with some of our favorites from the previous books. I loved that we got a great scenes with Bishop and Rook, in addition to Violet. I also loved seeing Alex and Violet’s kids, especially Lavender and can’t wait to read more her in the future. I definitely recommend this book!

This book got me out of my COVID-19 slump, probably not the best thing to lead with but 100% truth. Helena Hunting has a way with words and characters that instantly brightens my life. King and Queenie are nothing like I expected and everything I needed. Ryan Kingston is definitely the wholesome milk drinking "boy scout" that we expect from meeting him in previous books. His goodness (for lack of a better term) is reminiscent of Alex Waters in Pucked, asking for consent and being overly considerate of others. Where Alex was wholesome and Canadian and raised to be that way, King is just good, good down to his bones, and his background is colorful and really fun to read about (Don't worry I won't give any spoilers). Queenie as described in the book is a storm. She is a whirlwind and while we know from the blurb that she is the General Manager's daughter, she is so much more. She is a level of controlled chaos that King welcomes into his life and it is everything!

I loved this book so much and I tried to read slowly, take my time but like all of Helena Hunting's books I devoured it in less than 24 hours (would have been one sitting but sleep and work interfered- damn them). The peeks into Alex and Violet's life were present in this book, as they were in other books in the All In series, and I think there were some teasers to future books and future characters embedded into this story, I am crossing my fingers that I am right.

I received an ARC of this book through NetGalley and voluntarily give my review.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
This is the first book I've read of the series. I can imagine it would help to read the previous ones, but it was easy enough to learn who the characters were as well as their partners.
I liked that in this story, the female lead was the more sexually proactive character compared to the 'boy scout' male. This doesn't happen often enough and the author wrote them well.
The family support both characters had was a lovely touch and added an extra layer to the story-line.
3.5 stars

This meet-cute is definitely a meet-hot! King and Queenie are such a perfect opposites attract. Queenie's family is heartbreaking knowing her father, Jake, tried his best as a young single father. King has SO much new information to work through and that family dynamic is at times comical and mostly seriously dysfunctional. These two navigate together in a way that neither could have expected.

The queen of sports romance is back with another must-read and continues to shine with her All In series. A Secret for a Secret is another 5-star romance starring a King and a Queenie. There is drama, romance, and captivating characters.

Ryan Kingston, aka King, is a professional hockey player that has his life sorted out. He is organized and level-headed. He never drinks too much and is always in control. He let's go for one night and meets a beautiful woman named Queenie. They take a trip to the bedroom and it's so unexpected.

Queenie is a young woman who is finding out who she is. She has so many dreams but has a hard time sticking to things especially when it starts to get tough. She wants to prove to herself and her dad that she can stand on her own two feet. One night she meets a sexy and shy guy named King and she is a goner.

I love that they bring out the best in each other. King is normally shy and calm but when he is around Queenie he steps out of his comfort zone and will do anything to protect her. King shows Queenie the support that she has never really had from anyone outside of her father. They support each other 100% and it's so adorable.

I give A Secret for 5 stars. It's unputdownable and such a fun read. King and Queenie's love story is so swoon-worthy!!
