About Mile High by Liz Tomforde (Windy City Series, Book 1 of 5) – A Bold Sports Romance That Starts in Chicago

Mile High by Liz Tomforde (Windy City Series, Book 1 of 5) is a sports romance about hockey, team travel, attraction, and personal growth. It follows Evan Zanders, an NHL player known for his bad-boy image, and Stevie, a flight attendant working on his team’s private plane. Their meetings bring teasing, tension, and irritation, but road trips pull them closer. Liz Tomforde’s official page confirms Stevie has promised herself she will not date another athlete.

This book is made for readers who enjoy romance with chemistry, arguments, emotional moments, and sports energy. It is not only about attraction. The story also looks at how people see themselves, how public images can hide real feelings, and how love can grow when two people slowly learn to trust each other.

When You Want More Than a Simple Hockey Romance

Some sports romance books give you a famous player, a love interest, and a quick romance. Mile High gives readers more room to know the main characters. Zanders looks confident and careless from the outside, but there is more under that image. Stevie is strong and direct, yet she also has her own worries and personal struggles. Their relationship grows through repeated meetings, arguments, private talks, attraction, and change.

This makes the book a good choice if you want a romance that feels bigger than one simple love story. You get the fun of an NHL setting, travel on a private team plane, teasing, strong attraction, and a hero with a huge public personality. At the same time, you get a heroine who pushes back, speaks her mind, and does not simply fall for fame.

The result is a long, emotional romance that lets the tension build. Instead of giving everything away at once, the story lets Zanders and Stevie challenge each other until their feelings become harder to ignore.

Meet Evan Zanders and Stevie

Evan Zanders knows how people see him. He is the hockey star who enjoys attention, spends time in the penalty box, and carries the image of a player who does not care what others think. He likes being the man fans talk about. He also does not enjoy having Stevie on the team plane, especially when she refuses to treat him like he is above everyone else.

Stevie has worked as a flight attendant for years. She thinks she has seen every kind of passenger, but Zanders tests her patience. He is loud, confident, difficult, and very hard to ignore. She has already promised herself that she will not get involved with another athlete. That promise becomes much harder when the man she dislikes starts showing sides of himself she did not expect.

Their story is built on push and pull. Zanders likes getting a reaction from Stevie. Stevie refuses to let his fame control her. As the season continues and the team keeps traveling, the line between annoyance and attraction becomes less clear. The official book page confirms Mile High as Windy City Series Book 1.

What Makes This Book Stand Out

  • A professional hockey romance with an NHL star at the center.

  • A flight attendant heroine who is not impressed by fame.

  • Strong enemies-to-lovers style tension and constant teasing.

  • Road trips and private-plane scenes that keep the main characters close.

  • A romance that mixes physical attraction with emotional growth.

  • A hero whose public image does not tell his full story.

  • A heroine who deals with confidence, body image, and personal boundaries.

  • A connected Chicago sports world that continues through later books.

  • Plenty of banter, relationship tension, and adult romantic content.

The author’s official content warnings list explicit sex scenes, mentions of anxiety, and body shaming. Because of that content, this is an adult romance rather than a children’s or young teen book.

A Good Pick for Long Reading Sessions

Mile High works well for readers who like to stay with the same couple for a long time and watch the relationship change step by step. It can be a strong weekend read, a holiday read, or a book for readers who want to start a full sports romance series.

It is also a good starting point if you have seen later Windy City books online but want to read the connected series in order. Starting with Zanders and Stevie helps introduce the tone, friendships, sports world, and Chicago setting before the next couples take the lead. Liz Tomforde’s official site places Mile High first in the five-book main Windy City sequence.

If you enjoy hockey romance, strong banter, confident athletes, women who stand their ground, emotional healing, and characters who slowly become important to each other, this book gives you many of those elements in one story.

A Premium Reading Copy from Bookish Wonderland

A long romance is better when the physical book is comfortable to hold and easy to read. Bookish Wonderland offers this printed edition for readers who want a clean, durable copy for regular reading and shelf storage.

The pages use premium eye-soothing cream paper, which gives the inside of the book a softer look while reading. The text is produced with crystal-clear print so letters stay sharp and easy to follow. The book also uses high-quality stitched and glue binding for better strength and longer use.

These details matter when you are reading a long book. A stronger binding helps the pages stay secure through repeated use. Clear printing makes long reading sessions easier. Cream paper also gives the book a neat, premium feel. Instead of buying only for the story, you get a copy made to remain part of your collection.

Who Should Read Mile High?

This book is best for adult romance readers who enjoy sports stories with heat, humor, and emotional change. It may especially suit readers who like hockey players, workplace tension, forced closeness through travel, confident heroes, plus-size heroines, and couples who begin by pushing each other’s buttons.

It is also useful for readers looking for a romance series with different couples in each book but a connected group around them. The Windy City Series moves through professional sports and relationships in Chicago, giving readers new main characters while keeping the larger world connected.

Because the official content warnings include explicit sexual scenes, anxiety references, and body shaming, buyers should consider those themes before ordering.

Liz Tomforde officially describes it as Book 1 of the Windy City Series. Zanders has a confident bad-boy image, while Stevie has promised herself she will not date another athlete.

Is Mile High by Liz Tomforde spicy, and is it suitable for younger readers?

Yes. Mile High is an adult romance with explicit sexual content, so it is better suited to mature readers rather than children or young teens. Liz Tomforde’s official book page includes explicit sex scenes among its content warnings. The story also discusses body image, anxiety, attraction, relationships, and other mature subjects. Readers looking for a clean or closed-door romance should know this before buying. If you enjoy spicy contemporary sports romance with a strong emotional side, however, Mile High fits that style well.

What romance tropes and themes can readers expect in Mile High?

Mile High combines several popular romance elements, including hockey romance, enemies-to-lovers-style tension, workplace proximity, forced proximity through team travel, a famous athlete hero, witty banter, and a plus-size heroine. Reader discussions frequently focus on Stevie’s body-image journey and Zanders’ development from an arrogant public personality into a more emotionally open partner. The book also explores confidence, public image, vulnerability, family and friendship. These deeper themes make the relationship more character-driven than a simple attraction-based sports romance.

Can Mile High be read as a standalone, or should I read the full Windy City Series?

Mile High tells Zanders and Stevie’s main romance within the first book, so you can enjoy their central story without reading another Windy City novel first. However, it is also the introduction to the connected Windy City world. Characters from Mile High continue to appear in later books, and later couples are connected through family, friendship, hockey, basketball, and baseball. Reader discussions about The Right Move also note that reading Mile High first adds context when Stevie and Zanders appear again. If you plan to read the whole series, starting with Mile High gives you the best chronological introduction.

Why do some readers love Mile High while others say it feels long?

Length and pacing are among the most common points discussed by readers. The current Entangled: Amara paperback listed on Amazon contains 464 pages. Some readers enjoy having plenty of time with Stevie and Zanders because it gives their personalities, insecurities, friendships, and relationship room to develop. Other readers feel parts of the romance move slowly or could have been shorter; this criticism also appears repeatedly in reader discussions. Therefore, Mile High is especially suited to readers who enjoy longer, character-heavy romance books rather than very short, fast-moving love stories.

Is Mile High a good choice for readers who like strong character development?
Yes. Character growth is one of the main reasons many readers connect with Mile High. Stevie is more than simply the hockey star’s love interest; her confidence, body image, work, friendships, and personal boundaries form an important part of her story. Readers have specifically praised her development outside the central romance. Zanders also begins with a deliberately cocky and difficult personality, and his softer, more vulnerable side becomes clearer as the story develops. This makes the book suitable for readers who enjoy seeing imperfect characters slowly change rather than meeting characters who are already emotionally perfect from the first chapter.
Is Mile High by Liz Tomforde available as a premium printed edition at Bookish Wonderland?
Yes. Bookish Wonderland offers Mile High as a premium-quality printed book made for comfortable reading and regular use. The pages use premium eye-soothing cream paper, giving readers a softer reading surface than bright white paper. Crystal-clear printing keeps the text sharp and easy to follow throughout the book. The physical finish is designed for customers who want more than simply a readable copy and prefer an English book that also looks neat when kept in their personal collection.
What is the paper and print quality of Mile High from Bookish Wonderland?

The Bookish Wonderland edition uses premium eye-soothing cream paper with crystal-clear printing. The cream-colored pages provide a softer visual background for long reading sessions, while clean printing helps letters remain clear and readable. This is especially useful for a longer romance such as Mile High because readers may spend many hours with the book. The page and print combination is intended to give customers a smooth, comfortable reading experience while maintaining a clean appearance from the opening chapters through the end of Zanders and Stevie’s story.

How durable is the binding of Mile High from Bookish Wonderland?

Mile High from Bookish Wonderland uses high-quality stitched and glue binding for longevity. Combining stitching with adhesive helps keep the pages firmly held together during repeated reading. This is particularly useful for readers who plan to finish the entire book, reread favorite scenes, lend it carefully to friends, or keep all five Windy City books together as a collection. With sensible handling and storage away from moisture, strong heat, and excessive bending, the durable construction is intended to keep the book in good reading condition for longer.

Why should I buy Mile High by Liz Tomforde from Bookish Wonderland?
