Lauren's anguish surfaces and the ache of betrayal is visceral, the setting is riveting and addicting, filled with suspense that tightens with each decision she makes. This is a hockey romance with sharp thrill, angsty, slow-burning, and unabashedly poignant. The prose is magnificent yet brutal, with a delicate structure that follows Lauren's soul.

Sawyer's return exposes the past, enhancing the stakes, their history is packed with friend to lover anticipation, compounded by an age difference and the pressure of being the coach's daughter.
