I loved this book! From the very beginning, I was absolutely obsessed with Chase’s pining for Bailey!!! Give me all the slow-burn, emotionally tortured, quietly-in-love male leads
I gave this book 4.5 stars. I loved both of the characters and the storyline. Of course a hockey romance was just the cherry on top - I will definitely be reading more of Avery Keelan.

This could've been a good read, but it had no business being 17+ hours...

Complicated
I read this while waiting for hockey season to start again. It was an interesting hockey romance, and I love “tough boy turned madly in love” but it was too long.
There’s quite a lot of this book where nothing really happens. It’s cute to see them interact and have fluff moments, but there was so much of that. It became unnecessary and annoying instead of cute, and it made getting through the book difficult. So many of the events in the middle don’t develop the characters or progress the story.
Bailey as a character was a little frustrating. Her family is in crisis but she never tried to get a job, and scholarships and other things like that were an afterthought. A lot of things seemed like an afterthought, actually (her mysterious past with her family, her family’s house, the school publication, basically everything she does), which is particularly egregious considering the length of the book. We had time to cover these things in more depth!
I read the edition with the bonus chapters of their life. Honestly, I thought they were unnecessary. I don’t need to see every update to their lives they have.
Overall, it was a kind of fun, potato chip kind of book without any nutrition but might scratch a junk food itch.
