About this listen
When a car accident changed the trajectory of his life at 15, Sam Braga set out to find his own way in the world. It never occurred to him he’d find home in Fairfield, Colorado, working with a childhood friend at a tattoo shop, and the legal guardian of a gorgeous little girl who was abandoned by her mother at birth.
Sam has his life organized exactly the way he needs it. Maisy, work, and his found-family. There isn’t room for anything else. Especially when DCS gets involved and tells him that his disability might interfere with his petition to finally adopt the little girl he’s been raising. Sam might be lonely, but he just doesn’t have room for love.
Niko Pagonis tells himself he’s not using the small town of Fairfield as an escape, but who is he kidding. When his NHL career ends two minutes after it begins, Niko flees the East Coast in search of somewhere to settle. He finds home in the form of his accounting firm and his gym buddies who never abandon him on leg-day. Eventually, however, it’s not enough. Niko craves connection, and above all, he wants to feel like he belongs. He stumbles onto the unlikely family at Irons and Works, and more than that, he finds himself in the path of the gorgeous single dad who has made it clear he has no plans to fit Niko into his routine.
But things aren’t always that simple, even when both men try to make them that way. A misguided offer of friends with benefits turns into something else, and both Sam and Niko know they’re flirting with disaster. Still, neither one of them can seem to stay away from the other. Will they find their way through the mess before someone gets hurt? Or will it all come crashing to the ground?
Blank Canvas is the second book in the Irons and Works series. Each book contains an individual storyline with no cheating and a HEA.

Story
When it comes to hockey, I'm all about the game. I've worked for years to be one of the best in the league, and l've done it without splashing my orientation all over the tabloids. My hockey image is one I've carefully cultivated, and after one night with Ezra Palaszczuk, I risk it all. He's cocky, obnoxious, and has an ego bigger than Massachusetts. And okay, maybe he's the sexiest man I've ever known. We'll never get along. Not when we sleep together. Not even when my possessive streak awakens. That doesn't stop us from falling into bed together over and over again.

The job at Sunday Orchard was supposed to be temporary. A chance to gain some work experience, to have some fun. I had not expected to be welcomed into a family of gorgeous and weirdly efficient lumberjack-types, or to find purpose in the tiny Vermont town whose claim to fame seemed to be apple-based products and copious amounts of charm. And I most definitely hadn’t expected to fall for Knox Sunday, my grumpy, burly, fifteen-years-older, reluctant roommate, with his infuriating lectures, his hot-as-fire body, his superior attitude - I’ve never been one to put down roots.

Tyson Langley thinks the king in Franklin University Kings is in reference to him. Star lacrosse player and God’s gift to the female and male population, there’s nothing the spoiled jock can’t have. It’s impossible for us to be in the same room without talking crap to each other. But I also have a secret…as much as I despise Ty, I want him too. I revel in our banter and in never knowing what he’ll say next. I’ve spent too much time on the wrong side of the law for someone like Ty, though, and if I want to escape my past, he’s a distraction I don’t need.

Story
Between running a garage full of beefed-up gear-head mechanics and bailing my idiot brother out of trouble every other week, the last thing I have time for is a relationship. I’ve tried it too many times, and the ridiculous reasons I always find to end it have become a running joke around the garage. But I’ve learned my lesson. No. More. Boyfriends. I don’t care how many times Porter falls asleep drunk in my bed or how cute he looks covered in oil smears while I teach him how to fix up the vintage car he has rusting away in his garage; I’m not going to fall for him.

But somewhere in the darkness of all it, he meets Niko. Niko is at a crossroads in his life. Still trying to figure out his future now that his NHL dreams have been crushed. He’s searching for a home and community.
I love that in both their stories, they save themselves. Fight their own fights. But their love for one another just makes it easier, better. Having someone to trust and make them feel safe is something special, but it’s not the cure.
It’s a great story. And I loved their journey.
Narrator Scott D. Alford does a really good job with this. I definitely recommend as an audiobook.

I was beyond excited to dive head first into Sam's story!! He is one of my favourite characters out of this series (yes, I finished and now I'm back tracking to write reviews, couldn't resist)!! I love the way these books are written where there is a time lapse and you get to go back and revisit certain parts of the last book that tie into the book you're reading. I love going back in time and seeing a different story line unfold, it's really neat!
I want to start with Maisy's adoption case and the mean agency! I was beyond frustrated at all their antics. I really felt for Sam and wished I could punch the woman case worker in the face lol. I love how Rowan handled everything! He was such a boss and put those jerks in their place (fist pump)!!
Niko & Sam's love was a slow burn and sort of worked out like the 1st book where we got to see all the build, trials, self-doubt for both characters, then how they fixed it, and eventually fell in love. The friends did play a good roll throughout and I love that they are still such a big part of each one of these books!
Scott again did an amazing job bringing the characters to life and really letting you feel all of their emotions! I was once again swept away with a great narrator and awesome story!!!
It's not our differences that divide us.

The author did an amazing job with describing characters with a verity of disabilities realistically, more raw and not as clean as most books with disabled characters do. It really brought it into perspective, made the story that much better.
The group of artists in Iron and Works is a family, and that is always so very clear in this series. Each is a fantastic character, and they way they stick together and help each other is wonderful.
Sam and Niko have been building up to a relationship from book #1, and I liked how this book took us back to some of the events from the first book to bring us up to date with them and show us their view of things. I also liked that it took them time, it was not easy, physically and emotionally, for them to find the balance and courage to e in a relationship despite all the hardships they might face together.
Really looking forward to the next book!
A wonderful story with well rounded characters
