Collide was such a fun time!
I was lucky enough to be sent a free finished copy of this book by Berkley Romance, and it didn’t disappoint!
There were definitely some things I wish were a bit different, but there were also lots of things to love!
I loved
💚 Aiden and Summer’s relationship
💚 the balance of lighthearted and emotional beats
💚 the family relationships
💚 Summer’s growth and development
Things I wish were different
💚 I wish some of the side characters had a bit more depth, especially Amara, Cassie, Tyler, and Eli
💚 there were some one-off jokes that were referenced as if they were continual inside jokes, but that never popped up again
💚 I know that hockey teams are big, but there were so many boys in the hockey house that I couldn’t keep all of them straight
These things mostly bugged me in the first half of the book, and as it kept going they got less bothersome.
I will definitely be reading more from Bal Khabra in the future! 3.75 stars.
