So so good. Maybe I thought it was so good because I relate to it in some ways, but this book breaks your heart and mends it back together again. Readers will fall in love with Rhys

Perfectly angsty with some spice! This was the warm hug I needed! It follows a figure skater with too much on her plate and a cinnamon roll hockey player trying to heal mentally from an injury. They help each other heal while also having the capacity of being self aware when they are not always going about things in a healthy way. I really enjoyed the acknowledgment of how both the character’s trauma was manifesting and how they were able to overcome it and build a healthy relationship. I also found the side characters interesting. Hopefully we get some books following their story. Not the most action packed book but it was a perfect angsty romance book. 

Content Warnings (likely not all): Anxiety, Alcohol Abuse (not by MCs), Abusive Coach.

This book had me in a CHOKEHOLD

I liked the short chapters and switched perspectives between each chapter.

It was hard not to connect with Rhys and Sadie because there was so much to them. Their stories both equally drawing me further and further into the story. 

I didn't like how many obstacles it took, I knew it would be a lot but it felt like every page I turned I was happy and then sad and it kept going on and on and it was a little overwhelming.

Overall I really liked this book, but I definitely need a book about Bennett :)
