First five star read in a hot minute but this book deserves it. I’m currently writing this review in the time it takes for the second book of the series to download. Props to Elle Kennedy for using my name for the main character. All of the characters are equally love able and frustrating, although I appreciate that the inevitable 3/4 mark miscommunication was done extremely well. All the love, always <3

maybe a spoiler but the main love interest is not responsible for the SA that occurred; to be clear.

I have new obsession with hockey romance! How have I only recently discovered the joy of hockey romance?! I love hockey, I love romance, & ofcourse I love books, so why have I only recently started reading hockey romance books? 
I loved this book!!! It brought together the joys and confusion of finding love, the fun of hockey, with the trauma of the past, & the healing journey  to move on. The author wonderfully mixed all these aspects together, in such an incredible way! 
And Hannah & Garret have such an amazing story; both healing from their own separate traumas, but coming together to support eachother in their journeys! They are #relationshipgoals 💜💜💜
