ARC review:

4.5⭐️

If you love an ice hockey romance this is defo a book you need to read!!!!

I ate this UP! I loved this book so much! I was giggling & kicking my feet one min & then crying the next😭 this just gave me everything I wanted out of this book!

I loved how they hated each other but couldn’t stop thinking about it each other & how Riley noticed all the small things with Reece!

I NEED the rest of the series now, THE MEN UGH I’m sat🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️ PLEASE give me carter😙😙

Fave quotes & moments:

“Stop watching the physio and f*cking skate”

“ I’ve spent years building this name for myself, this level of respect, a man who cannot be shaken but here she is with her freckles and ponytail swaying looking at me as if I’m the rookie”

“She is a problem” I tell myself. The kind I need to not get involved with.

“She’s a silver girl” - SORRY when do men ever notice this when you aren’t even dating!!!

“No matter what happens out there today, don’t let me get lost. Pull me back you see me breaking.”

ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS ICE HOCKEY ROMANCE!!

From the very first chapter I was pulled in!!
I loved the mix of tension, romance and humour it keeps you invested from start to finish.

I loved the way Reece and Riley hated each other at the start but couldn’t stop thinking about each other!!
And at the start they kept making snarky comment to each other but at the end of the book they couldn’t get enough of each other.

I loved how they both came out their shells and showed their emotions towards each other.

Favourite quotes
“You’re dangerous,” I tell her
She grins up at me like she knows it. “Why?”
“Because you make me imagine a world outside of the ice.”

“Stop watching the physio and f*cking skate.”

“No matter what happens out there today, don’t let me get lost. Pull me back when you see me breaking.”

Chelsea! THIS BOOK! Im screaming!!! You smashed it!🫶

The tension, the friendship, the slow burn, the emotional healing.😭 I was not prepared! From the first page, you can feel the weight of their pasts and how badly they both want to start over. It’s tender and raw in the best possible way!🥹

The chemistry?? Off the charts.
The banter/disagreements?? Chef’s kiss.
The emotional gut punches? Destroyed me.

Their friendship slowly turning into something deeper felt so real! Reece’s vulnerability, Riley’s quiet steadiness🫶. The way they both challenge and heal each other… it’s giving everything!! Watching them circle each other, push each other’s buttons, and slowly lower their walls was honestly addictive! The chemistry builds gradually and when it finally hits. It feels earned, not rushed! Not forced, just real🩷🥹. The writing balances emotional depth with a kind of humour that feels natural. It’s not over the top... it’s the kind of story that makes you smile one moment and catch your breath the next. I was literally giggling to myself most of the time!🤪

It’s honestly a slowburn perfection with just the right amount of emotional damage, sarcasm, and tension! Perfect! loved every second! This is definitely a new favourite!🥹🫶
