I have enjoyed each of the authors hockey, why choose/RH stories. This book was no different. It was a quick read and kept me interested.
I gotta be honest, I wasn't quite sure how things were gonna work out at first. (No spoilers) However, after the epilogue, it all came together perfectly, for Ollie and her men.

Ollie is the first woman to referee professional hockey. She is situated mainly in Iowa with her sister, Blair, who is the social media manager for the Iowa Poseidon hockey team. Ollie is getting over a relationship with her ex-boyfriends. Yes, you heard that right. She was involved with two guys, Kai and Hudson. They broke up with Ollie and she was still trying to get over hurt they left her with. Blair wanted to help Ollie get over Kai and Hudson, so she set her up with on dates. She finally realized that maybe one date would never be enough for Ollie.

Felix and Ryker play for the Iowa Poseidon and have had their eyes on Ollie for a while. Now, they have been given a chance to get to know her. Things are going well until Kai and Hudson call Ollie to apologize. Will Ollie hear them out? Ryker and Felix refuse to just let Ollie go. Ollie decides that she wants them all. How will this work? Can Ollie and the guys make this situation work? We know similar things have happened with the Iowa Poseidon and Minnesota Norse hockey teams. Will readers get another family to add to the team? This book does the job just like all of the others in this series. Jump into this quick story that ends with Ollie getting everything she wants and deserves.

This is a fun quick read. It's also why choose, so the female has more than one love interest. Ollie is a pro hockey referee and had been dating two men that recently broke her heart when they ended their relationship with her. Then along comes Felix and Ryker who are seriously attracted to Ollie and want a chance with her. But what will she do when her other two ex-boyfriends come crawling back to her? Will she have to choose? I love these quick spicy hockey reads by Wynter. This series is so good.

OMG !!! I just love this series so freaking much. Why choose , hockey romance, one heroine you cannot help but love and 2 oh so hot as heck hockey players vying for her attention . Add into that the steam , the humor , the witty banter , the family and friendships and oh man do you have fantastic love story .

I loved Ollie here. A strong-minded female is always needed in my opinion.

Sure, Kai and Hudson let her go, and months later she found Felix and Ryker. All to have Kai and Hudson walk back into her life, making her choose. Or not making her choose hint hint.

Instead of three, its four men and let me tell you, it’s not dull, that's for sure. Another quick, fun read from Wynter.

Ollie was finally ready to move on with her life and start dating again when her past comes back to haunt her. There’s a little bit of drama before Ollie declares what she wants. Then, we get the spice.

[Brandy Rice · Rating 4 out of 5]

Short and sweet with a little bit of drama. Ollie and her men definitely bring the spice. It was great to see Ollie stand up for herself and ask for what she wanted. The banter was great and I loved the relationship between Ollie and her sister. I can't wait for the next book!!

Puck U Been Gone is a good quick spicy why-choose novella.
Ollie is trying to move on with her life after getting her heart broken by 2 hockey players. Her sister sets her up with 2 other hockey players and she has a great time. There's some drama but Ollie eventually realizes what she wants and goes for it! Love the ending and I can't wait for the next novella!
