How am I supposed to go on after reading this? I’ve never fallen so in love with each individual character of a story the way I did with this one.

Rachel motherfucking Price is the definition of badass, and my favorite female main character of all time. The otherworldly connection and love she shares with Ilmari, Caleb, and Jake is everything. Her role in helping all of them not only find themselves, but stay true to themselves is one of the very best parts of the story all together.

And don’t get my started on the extra curriculars 🥵😅 A cocky defenseman, a brooding bear of a goalie, and their daddy-dom of an equipment manager…. what more can I say? 

Also as a side note: I actually really enjoyed the look into the inner medical workings of a sports team, ngl lol.

Additionally, I’m definitely glad I read the prequel to this book (That One Night) before diving in as it really set up the story well, and showed just how deep and fated Rachel’s connection with Jake is moving into Pucking Around. Not to mention it peppers in some background on Caleb and a few other little things as well. (Hi Poseidon 🐾)

This woman can WRITE. From the plot with all the detail, to the toe-curling spice this ticks every single box for me. I can’t wait for the next book in the series (Pucking Wild) which centers around Rachel’s best friend Tess!

If you were debating, take my advice and read the damn book.

Okay. I loved this book. It was sooooo long. But so worth it. The characters are amazing. The three boys are so cute. With the golden retriever energy, black cat energy, and ….. sea turtle? energy lol.
