Poor narration. Voices didn’t match characters. Storyline was good
3 ⭐ Not the best hockey romance out there.
And although I'm sure it's also not the worst, there were multiple things here that didn't really work for me.
First, this book is so much longer than it needs to be. It did not need to be over 450 pages. It just didn't. The only reason why I didn't DNF it it's because all the extra pages and scenes were mostly smutty, which I enjoyed but after a while even than got repetitive. Then we have the third act break up that could have easily been avoided and hinges on miscommunication and lies, which is probably my least favourite trope of all time. It was pretty bad, but I was hopeful we'd get a quick resolution.
And lastly, even though Noah is 10000% a golden retriever, absolutely amazing, unicorn of a man who would die for his woman, I didn't feel like there was a real connection between him and Margo. They lusted over each other, sure, and that apparently meant also insta love for them somehow, but it felt like there was something missing. Also, he kept calling her 'baby girl'... I almost didn't make it past that.
Good, but not great.

I’m calling it, I’ve officially read too many hockey romances in short succession because the plot and spice scenes are too similar for me now
