lighthearted medium-paced

3.5

This was a decent read. It was pretty low angst in terms of the relationship but the context it was set over was kinda intense (

permanent amnesia

). 

Overall the characters were sweet and I enjoyed them and their story. The plot wasn't too beefy but kept me just entertained enough to keep listening. 

Nice to see a 6' tall woman as the lead. Also nice to have some dyslexia rep.

Incredible chemistry, really good communication & constructive fighting (we stan a healthy relationship); super interesting side plots & well-developed supporting cast.
Very hot smut, super worth the wait.
I wish it had focused just a tiny bit more on the hockey subplot as that felt just a little under developed, but I wasn’t dissatisfied with what we got.
